[edit] Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door Stats and Tattle Info
[edit] Shady Koopa
- HP: 8
- ATK: 3
- DEF: 1
- Location: Glitzville, Pit of 100 Trials
- Tattle Log: When a Shady Koopa flips back up from its back, its Attack increases. Shady Koopas have a place of honor in the Koopa family tree because of this distinction.
- Tattle: That's a Shady Koopa. It's yet another member of the Koopa family tree. The difference between them and other Koopas? They can attack from their backs! And when they flip back up, their Attack gets boosted and they go totally ape! ...Wow! That's pretty tricky! No wonder they're called Shady Koopas, huh?
[edit] Shady Paratroopa
- HP: 8
- Attack: 3
- Defense: 1
- Location: Glitzville
- Tattle Number: 15
- Tattle Log: Other than having wings, this creature isn't very difficult from a Shady Koopa. Once it flips off its back, it boosts its Attack.
- Tattle: That's a Shady Paratroopa. It's a Shady Koopa with wings, obviously. Knock off its wings and it's a Shady Koopa. Unlike typical Koopas and Paratroopas, its Attack jumps when it flips up off its back. This also says it has a move that hits you and your ally at once. Is that possible? Uh... I guess the best thing to do is just beat it quickly after we flip it.
[edit] Trivia
- The second time a cake meant for Mario appears in the Major League locker room, if Mario chooses not to eat it, Shellshock will eat it instead; as the cake was poisoned, he will be immobilized after eating it and be left lying on the ground twitching.
- Despite the fact that the Shellshockers, like other major league groups, are rather cold towards Mario and his team, at least one of their members shows great support for Mario during the Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door's final battle.
- The term "shellshocked" is, in actuality, applied to a person who is easily startled by loud noises due to a history of bad experiences with noisy weapons. The Shellshockers' name is derived from this term and the fact that Koopas, like all turtles, wear shells; it is also possible that their goal is to shellshock their opponents, thus giving them their name.
