Template:MLinfobox Scaratroopeas are flying Elite Troopeas found only in Joke's End during the events of Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga. They have the ability to heal other team members; also, when attacking, a Scaratroopea moves much more quickly than a Paratroopea, causing more damage to Mario or Luigi. They show who they are going to attack in the same way as the original Paratroopeas; if they dip a little before rising into the sky, they target Luigi; if not, their target will be Mario. They can also revive party members by shooting water at the ground. They are the strongest members of the Troopea family species.
