Super Paper Mario description Rams into enemies when you kick the shell.

A Shell Shock is an item in Super Paper Mario. It is designed after a Green Shell from Super Mario Bros. When the player kicks the shell, it ricochets away and rams into enemies, damaging them. But it will also hurt the player when it bounces back, just like an actual Koopa Shell. Using the item activates a minigame where the shell bounces around the screen, and the player must press A Button while hovering over it with a crosshair. If the player succeeds, the shell grows to almost three times its original size and deals double the player's attack stat, but if the player fails, it stays small and deals regular damage. Bowser's double damage does not apply to the shell shock.

Shell Shocks appear in the following locations:
