Trophy Koopa Paratroopa
	Game/move: Super Mario Bros. 10/85
	How to unlock: Randomly obtainable only in single-player modes
	These winged Koopa Troopas can fly, but they're none too smart: they tend to spend a lot of their time simply jumping or fluttering around a small area. As a result, no one exactly thinks of them as majestic, soaring creatures. They lose their wings and become normal Koopa Troopas if Mario or Luigi jump on their backs.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl

The Green Koopa Paratroopa trophy states that they appear in Mario Hoops 3-on-3. However, only a Red Koopa Paratroopa appears in that game, as a playable character.

Trophy Green Koopa Paratroopa
	Appears in: NES Super Mario Bros. DS Mario Hoops 3-on-3
	How to unlock: Throwing a Trophy Stand at one in The Subspace Emissary
	A winged Koopa. These can fly to a degree, but in Super Mario Bros., it wasn't like they could soar wherever they pleased. In fact, they merely hovered, moving back and forth over set areas. Some Koopa Paratroopas don't even take to the skies, but just jump up and down. These become regular old Koopa Troopas when stomped.

Trophy Red Koopa Paratroopa
	Appears in: NES Super Mario Bros. DS Mario Hoops 3-on-3
	How to unlock: Throwing a Trophy Stand at one in The Subspace Emissary
	A flying Koopa with wings. In Super Mario Bros., they possessed the same abilities as green-shelled Koopa Paratroopas, but the routes they flew were different--they flew up and down rather than side to side. There are no red-shelled Koopas who merely hop up and down. You'll often see them participating in two-person kart races and playing basketball.

These green-shelled Paratroopas from the Mario series come in two varieties: ones that jump toward you, and ones that float in the air until they're swatted down. When you stomp or damage one in Smash Run, it'll lose its wings and be transformed back into a normal Koopa Troopa. (American English)

The red-shelled Paratroopa. Many a time Mario has used these flying turtles as a stepping-stone to victory. In Smash Run, they have better agility than their green brethren but are largely similar. If you defeat them, their wings will fall off and they'll become regular Koopa Troopas again. (American English)
Many times have Mario and his friends treated these red-shelled Paratroopas as little more than winged platforms. In Smash Run, they're a lot like green Paratroopas, except a little bit more aggressive. When you attack or stomp on one in Smash Run, its wings fall off, turning it back into a normal Koopa Troopa for good. (British English)

These winged foes tend to fly right in front of high places Mario wants to reach, so it isn't all that surprising that he constantly uses them as stepping stones. Jumping on them knocks their wings off, turning them into regular Koopa Troopas. These guys are surprisingly adaptable: they play tennis and basketball, and they can even drive! (American English)
These winged foes tend to fly around just in front of high places Mario wants to get to, so it's no wonder he's always using them as a stepping stone. Jumping on them makes them lose their wings, turning them into regular Koopas. These guys have proven surprisingly adept: they play tennis and basketball, and they can even drive! (British English)

Tattle	This is a Paratroopa. No surprise here--Paratroopas are Koopa Troopas with wings. Max HP: 4, Attack Power: 1, Defense Power: 1 When you jump on 'em or use a POW Block, their wings fall off and they become normal Koopa Troopas. It's easy to beat 'em once they're normal Koopa Troopas. Give 'em another Jump attack! They think they're pretty cool because they wear sunglasses, but they're not that tough.

• Paper Mario Official Nintendo Player's Guide: The fabulous wings of a Paratroopa are no match for a sturdy pair of boots. Until you get the Hammer Throw Badge, you'll be limited to jumping attacks against the airborne menace.

Tattle Log #: 11	Log	A Koopa Troopa with wings that stays airborne until you stomp on it and send it plunging to the ground.
	Tattle	That's a Koopa Paratroopa. Well, umm… It's basically a Koopa Troopa with wings. Max HP is 4, Attack is 2, and Defense is 1. I kinda hate that this guy gets to fly. Of course, you can stomp on him and he'll plunge down and be a plain Koopa Troopa. Yeah, do that, and he's ours! Stomp again to flip him, and his arms and legs are useless! Oops! Sorry, that's not true. It looks like he can still wiggle them around a bit…
