Koopa Troopas (ノコノコ, Nokonoko) are enemies from the Mario series. OriginBased on - but officially a separate creature from - the Shellcreeper introduced in Mario Bros., Koopa Troopas made their debut in Super Mario Bros. as a common enemy, and has become a common enemy in later Mario games. Along with the Goombas, the Koopa Troopas are some of the most recognizable enemies of the Mario series. They are anthropomorphic turtle-like creatures that are commonly seen in their green and red variations. The green Koopa Troopas are mostly known for walking in one direction until they are defeated or they fall, while the red Koopa Troopas move back and forth on platforms and turn around at ledges. Bowser is the king of the Koopa Troopas, much as Petey Piranha is the king of Piranha Plants and Goomboss is the king of Goombas. The name "Koopa Troopa" initially refered to an allegience to Bowser's Koopa Troop, but is currently used as a name for the species as a whole, including friendly members. Koopa Troopas are known for damaging the player on contact. If a Koopa Troopa is jumped on, they retreat into their shells rather than be defeated altogether, which can be kicked as projectiles. If the shells are left out for too long, however, the Koopa Troopa can emerge out of its shell. The kicked shells can also pose a danger if they bounce off of a wall. In Super Mario Bros. 3 and in later games onward, if a Koopa Troopa is jumped on and retreats into its shell, it can be picked up, carried around. This, however, can be dangerous, as the Koopa Troopa can emerge out of the shell while carried and can damage the player holding the shell. In Super Mario World and in later games onward, the Koopa Troopas appear walking on two legs instead of four, with the first Super Mario Galaxy game briefly reviving the quadrupedal Koopa Troopa design. New Super Mario Bros. would introduce one of the most well-known traits of Koopa Troopas, breaking the fourth wall by dancing in time to vocal Paah samples in non-diegetic music, initially depicted as turning around twice but given a unique animation starting in New Super Mario Bros. Wii. Koopa Troopa is a recurring playable character in the Mario Kart series, having first appeared in Super Mario Kart and making near-consistent appearances from that point onwards. Koopa Troopa's absence in Mario Kart 64 was given an in-universe explanation in Western promotional materials of Wario having stolen and repainted his kart. Prominent members of the Koopa Troopa race include Kooper, one of Mario's party members in Paper Mario, and Koopa the Quick, Mario's friendly rival in Super Mario 64. The Koopa Troopas have multiple subspecies, with the most famous being the winged Koopa Paratroopa and the undead Dry Bones. In Super Smash Bros.As a background characterTwo Green Koopa Troopas appear with custom sprites, styled after their 8-bit forms as background characters in the Mushroom Kingdom stage. In Super Smash Bros. MeleeAs a background character A Green Koopa Troopa in Mushroom Kingdom Two Green Koopa Troopas appear in their 8-bit forms as background characters in the Mushroom Kingdom stage. As an enemyIntroduced during E3 2001, Koopa Troopas appear as a common enemy in the Mushroom Kingdom stage of Adventure Mode. Koopa Troopas walk back and forth, turn around at ledges, and hurt the player on contact. Dealing enough damage by attacking them or jumping on them forces them to retreat into their shells. If the shell is left alone or carried for too long, then the Koopa Troopas will emerge out of their shells. Koopa Troopas can be defeated by grabbing and throwing the Koopa Troopa inside its shell, or by knocking it off a ledge, which will result in a Koopa KO bonus where the player receives 200 points for each Koopa Troopa KO'd. Green Koopa Troopa shells can be grabbed, carried around, and thrown like the Green Shell item to KO other enemies or damage opponents. Red Koopa Troopa shells also function similarly to the green variation, but deals fire damage and stronger damage and knockback upon contact. Trophy Koopa Troopa's trophy in Melee
In Super Smash Bros. BrawlAs an enemy A Green Koopa Troopa in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Koopa Troopas appear as enemies. The green and red versions appear as ground enemies in stages where Bowser's minions are present. Similar to their Melee counterparts, the Koopa Troopas can retreat into their shells when damaged or jumped on; however, they cannot harm players on contact, but they attack with a leaping bite when close enough. Also, the Koopa Troopas can emerge from their shells, even while their shell is moving. Moveset

Koopa Troopa is fought on the Golden Plains stage, referencing their appearance in New Super Mario Bros. 2. During the battle, Squirtle's defense will increase, referencing how a Koopa Troopa retreats into its shell rather than be destroyed by getting hit by a jump attack. During the Standard Kart spirit battle, Koopa Troopa uses an army of four Squirtles, referencing the Koopa Troopa and the Triple Green Shells depicted in the spirit artwork, and is fought on the Mario Circuit stage. During the battle, the Squirtle army will favor their Withdraw special, referencing how the Green Shells are used as an item in the Mario Kart series.
