Triple Green Shells

Triple Green Shells are a set of three Green Shells that appears primarily in the Mario Kart series. When used, three Green Shells rotate around the driver's kart protecting him or her from Bananas and other shells. If the driver collides with another driver, he or she will be hit by one, and if the other driver also has another set of Triple Green Shells or Triple Red Shells, both drivers will lose shells. Like ordinary Green Shells, they travel in a straight direction when fired and will bounce off walls until it exhausts. In Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, they were only exclusive to Koopa Troopa and Paratroopa (including Petey Piranha and King Boo). For unknown reasons, Triple Green Shells were not used in Mario Kart DS Wi-Fi mode.

Triple Green Shells also appear in Super Mario Strikers and Mario Strikers Charged. When obtained, they can be fired in the direction the player is facing. After being fired, they spread out in three directions and ricochet off walls until they hit someone. It useful for clearing room for a Super Strike or Mega Strike.
