Larry Koopa

Larry Koopa is the second youngest of Bowser's eight children

Super Mario Bros. 3
In Larry's first appearance he was the first Koopaling to be battled. He had stolen the magic wand from the king of Grass Land and turned him into an animal. In battle Larry would jump around and shoot magic blasts from his stolen magic wand his cabin in his airship. He would need to be jumped on 3 times. After this he was eventually defeated.

Super Mario World
Larry's second appearance was in the last world of Super Mario World,the Valley of Bowser. In battle he utilized his brother Iggy's attack pattern. He would sit on top of a tilting platform on top of lava and was immune to all of Mario's attacks. He would need to be jumped on until he fell off his platform.

Hotel Mario
The last appearance of Larry for several years was in the obscure Hotel Mario. He was found and battled in Larry's Chillton Hotel with the words "Larry's Cave Hotel" and "This mine is mine" written on the entrance. In battle Larry would attack by using bombs as bowling balls. Like previous battles he was eventually defeated.

Superstar Saga
After several years of absence, Larry reappeared in Superstar Saga after his older sister Wendy was defeated. Before battle Larry would trap Luigi in a barrel and shoot fireballs at him. To engage Luigi would need to stand in front of the Bob-omb to bounce them back, who would bounce them back with his tennis racket and would need to be hit with it. In battle he would shoot fireballs and bounce them back with his tennis racket. In the end he was defeated and once again disappeared.

Physical Description
Larry is seemingly best known to have a large blue mohawk which he, unlike his brother Ludwig, brushes and cleans. Though in Super Mario World he had gray-greenish hair. He also has a small body because he id the 2nd youngest of all the Koopalings. He has 4 visible fangs on the top corners of both sides of his mouth.

Personality
Like the other Koopalings, not much of Larry's personality has been revealed. What has been revealed is he is interested in sports because he used bombs as bowling balls in Hotel Mario and he was revealed to be a master of tennis, but has not appeared in any Mario sports games.

Other Appearances
Surprisingly, Larry is mentioned in Super Paper Mario as the star of a game on Francis's "To get list": Larry Koopa: Zombie Heartbreaker. It is presumably a horror/survival/romance themed game.

Cartoons and Comics
In The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 and Super Mario World cartoons, he was named Cheatsy Koopa and was usually scheming up the Koopa's next plan, sometimes with Kooky. A very common animation goof regarding Cheatsy was that his green head was often colored orange, the same color as the rest of his body. One particular shot in the episode "The Beauty of Kootie" even had his head mistakenly colored purple in the shot where he says "Tell that to the Mario Bros.," then in the Super Mario World series, Cheatsy's hair was given a lighter gray-green color and drawn a tad thicker. This happens to the other koopalings too.

There are several physical differences between Larry and Cheatsy: Larry's hair is pointed upwards but Cheatsy's hair was flatter and much more untamed; Cheatsy was almost always seen squinting and was given an overbite. He appears the most of all the Koopalings. Cheatsy was voiced by James Rankin. Additionally, in the continuity of the cartoons, Hip and Hop were the youngest Koopalings, not Cheatsy.

In the comic books published by Valiant, he didn't speak English; instead, his dialogue balloons contained various pictures. Only Lemmy was able to understand him.

Bio from The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 Writers Bible
''He loves to tie people up and then challenge them to a foot race. In reform school, he copied so many test papers, he got writer's claw. His hobby is counterfeiting Gold Coins, and he does such a great job of it, that Koopa has put him in charge of the Kastle Koopa treasury, where he happily spends every day cheating his brother and sister Koopalings on their allowances. When Koopa needs sneaking and devious, he calls on Cheatsy.''
