King K



KP Pete, better known by his pseudonym of King K, is a KP Koopa who fights at the Glitz Pit in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. He befriended Mario when he first entered the Glitz Pit and taught him the ways of the place. Mario easily beat him in battle as he was the second opponent he faced. As Mario rose to the top of the rankings King K told Mario he was going to retire after one last battle for safety reasons. Unfortunately after that last battle he ran into Grubba while he was powering up and. Grubba took him and absorbed his power where he was thrown under a block and eventually Bandy Andy was thrown in with him. When Mario found him he could hardly talk but he warned him about Grubba and then fell silently. It was believed that he died but he was seen with everyone else after Grubba was defeated and said goodbye to Mario. When Mario had to replay the Glitz Pit, he beat King K's team again. He leads the fighting group called the "KP Koopas," a.k.a. the "Shell Machines of Doom."
