Don't Attack While Barrier's Still Up

Shocker is surrounded by a barrier that absorbs attacks while it's still up. Dodge his attacks & wait for an opening to throw rubble at him. This will down his barrier, allowing you to get a few punches in.
Throw Rubble At Shocker After AoE or Charge Attack

Shocker is normally exhausted after shooting blasts then doing an AoE or Charged Attack. Use this opening to throw debris lying around at him to knock his barrier down.

4 | Repeat these steps until the next phase of the fight triggers |
Swing Up Into The Air To Avoid Shocker's Ground Pound

In Phase 2, instead of his AoE attack, Shocker will have a Ground Pound attack. This will create a cone of damage in front of him, so swing above & get out of the way to avoid getting hit.
Throw Debris At Shocker After Ground Pound Attack

Shocker will exhaust himself after the Ground Pound move, take advantage of this opening to bash him with some rubble so you have time to get some damage in.
Use Finisher Move To Deal Good Damage
Once you've created an opening, use your "△ + O" Finisher move combo to deal bigger damage than normal melee attacks. This can trigger the next phase faster.
Phase 3: Pull Down Ceiling To End Fight

---|---|
1 | Swing around the area & dodge Shocker's Shockwave blasts |
2 | After dodging, pull the ceiling parts down using the R1 + L1 prompt to damage Shocker |
3 | Repeat these steps twice until the boss fight is over |
Wait To Attack Until Shocker Stops Shooting Shockwave Blasts

Shocker will shoot out up to 4 shockwave blasts while he's downed in the middle of the room. Wait until he stalls from exhaustion before pulling the ceiling down on him.
