Koopa Troopa
Although not all that much stronger than a Goomba, Koopa Troopas have the benefits of arms, legs, and a tough shell, making them much more versatile minions for the King of Koopas.

Inside Information: Koopas are easily underestimated, though their shell attacks make them surprisingly formidable and easily capable of damaging multiple opponents. They have a lot of potential for different variants; the extreme example being the Parakoopa presented below. Often times Bowser will use his magic to give them some of the special moves of the melee fighters.

Shell Tuck
	Defensive - guard
	The Koopa Troopa can tuck into its shell in response to an attack. When it does so it becomes invulnerable, but remains in this state for 8 ticks--even going as far as to skip its turns. It becomes a Green Shell or a Red Shell, depending on whether the Koopa in question is green or red, until that time.
	
Shell Throw
	Attack - Ranged
	The Koopa Troopa can also remove its shell and attack with it. When it does it can be killed in a single hit by any attack and loses its shell abilities.
	
Shell Tackle
	Attack - Melee
	The Koopa Troopa makes a running charge and tucks into its shell. This behaves as if the Koopa Troopa had thrown its shell, but it has a speed of 8 and uses melee accuracy. When using this move it travels twice its move speed.
	
	VARIANT: Para Koopa
	The Parakoopa is a variant of the Koopa Troopa that's been given wings by Bowser's magic. Its Jump is increased to 3, it behaves as if it's got the Kirby Float Badge. It also has Flight and Divebomb.
	
Flight
	Special Combat Mode
	Descrption: When in Flight mode the Parakoopa is able to move freely in all directions at a speed equal to its Jump rating but becomes unable to Guard and therefore unable to Shell Tuck, but its Dodge increases by 1. This power lasts up to 20 ticks.
	
Divebomb
	Special
	Description: The Parakoopa swoops down from the air to strike a single opponent, kicking them up into the air.
	Power: 3
	Damage: 2%
	Accuracy: 5
