The '''Dark Koopatrol''' (or '''D. Koopatrol''') is the stronger version of the [[Koopatrol]] and the strongest type of [[Koopa Troopa|Koopa]] in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. The Dark Koopatrol is one of the most powerful enemies in the game, with a very high amount of HP and Attack. They wear a spiky metallic helmet to prevent being [[jump]]ed on. Much like the [[Dark Craw]], the first Dark Koopatrol encountered, named [[the Koopinator]], is found in the [[Glitz Pit]]. He is the last fighter [[Mario]] must defeat before his battle with [[Rawk Hawk]]. Dark Koopatrols attack by charging at Mario and his partners, or by using a move similar to [[Power Shell]]. Unlike the regular Koopatrols, they are unable to call in reinforcements. They can even increase their Offense by [[Charged|charging]] their attack by +5. The one weakness they have is that they can be flipped onto their shells like normal Koopas through the use of a [[Quake Hammer]] attack, a [[POW Block#Paper Mario series|POW Block]], or Mario's jump if he is wearing the [[Spike Shield]] badge.

'''Dark Koopatrols''' are the strongest type of [[Koopa Troopa|Koopa]] enemy in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. Dark Koopatrols are purple versions of the [[Koopatrol]]s, and are one of the most powerful enemies in the game. These elite Koopa soldiers wear a spiky metallic helmet, so as not to be [[Jump|jumped]] on by Mario, and also have intimidating spikes on their shell. Much like the [[Dark Craw]], the first Dark Koopatrol encountered, named the [[The Koopinator|Koopinator]], is found in the [[Glitz Pit]]. He is the last fighter [[Mario]] must defeat before his battle with [[Rawk Hawk]]. Dark Koopatrols attack by charging at Mario and his partners, or by using a move similar to [[Shell Shot]]. It will occasionaly call in reinforcements if it's the only enemy left. They can even increase their Offense and Defense when their HP get low. The one weakness they have is that they can be flipped onto their shells like normal koopas through the use of an earthquake attack or Mario's jump if he's wearing the Spike Shield badge.
 
They reappear in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', in the [[Flopside Pit of 100 Trials]]. However, in this game, they look like pitch-dark, shadowy Koopatrols. Although their appearance is different from the previous Paper Mario game, they retain their roles as the strongest Koopa enemies in the game. It is thought that [[Shadoo]], the monster at the bottom of the same pit, created it with the power to clone anyone.

The Dark Koopatrol (or D. Koopatrol) is the stronger version of the Koopatrol and the strongest type of Koopa in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. The Dark Koopatrol is one of the most powerful enemies in the game, with a very high amount of HP and Attack. They wear a spiky metallic helmet to prevent being jumped on. Much like the Dark Craw, the first Dark Koopatrol encountered, named the Koopinator, is found in the Glitz Pit. He is the last fighter Mario must defeat before his battle with Rawk Hawk. Dark Koopatrols attack by charging at Mario and his partners, or by using a move similar to Power Shell. Unlike the regular Koopatrols, they are unable to call in reinforcements. They can even increase their Offense by charging their attack by +5. The one weakness they have is that they can be flipped onto their shells like normal Koopas through the use of a Quake Hammer attack, a POW Block, or Mario's jump if he is wearing the Spike Shield badge.

Not counting bosses, Dark Koopatrols have the highest amount of HP in the game.
