'''Shellshock''' is a minor character in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. He is a common [[Shady Koopa]] who became a contracted fighter in the [[Glitz Pit]], the martial arts arena of the floating town of [[Glitzville]]. Shellshock and his fighting team, the [[Shellshockers]], are ranked #7 in the fighting roster and thus are a part of the major-league.

Shellshock often ends his sentences with the word "baby." After Mario defeats Shellshock in battle, he begins talking about how he loses motivation when he sees how Mario is progressing.

==''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''==
[[Mario]] encounters Shellshock in the midst of [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door#Chapter 3: Of Glitz and Glory|Chapter Three]], while he is searching for the [[Gold Star]]. After Mario defeats the [[Armored Harriers]], Mario switches to the major-league and he and Shellshock become roommates. If Mario manages to rise his rank up to #8, the player has the opportunity to battle Shellshock's fighting team, and if he wins, his ranking goes up further. 

At some other points in Chapter Three, Mario receives two [[cake]]s that were apparently sent by a fan, one of which is a [[Poisoned Cake]]. Mario can eat the first one, which replenishes his stats. If he decides to eat the second one however, Mario's partner is disabled by [[Poison (status effect)|Poison]]. The player can also choose to ignore the cakes, which results in Shellshock eating them while Mario is away fighting. He mocks Mario how he enjoyed his meal after ignoring the first cake. When Mario returns from his match after having declined the second cake, he finds Shellshock in a disabled state, lying on the ground and squirming, probably from a stomachache. He recovers from this after Mario ends another match.

A figure who is apparently Shellshock appears in the cutscene during the final fight against the [[Shadow Queen]], alongside other athletes. There he can be seen cheering Mario on through the Gold Star. It is, however, very likely that this character was originally supposed to be [[KP Pete]] and his sprite was simply misplaced with that of a Shady Koopa; said character uses terms in his speech that were used exclusively by King K throughout the game (like "G-man").

===Field Tattle===
*"''That's Shellshock. He seems to be totally on top of his game. For some reason, though, I think he's just a big softie. Maybe I'm thinking too much...''"
