Talk:Electro-Koopa King

Perspective
Why is this written as a species article when it's an individual, recolored, enlarged, asleep example of the red variety? It should probably be rewritten as a character article. Do the Prima, Nintendo Power, or Shogakukan guides indicate it's actually a species? Because unless they do, there's no reason for this to be formatted this way. Particularly with the Japanese name indicating it's a "King" of sorts. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 17:52, 7 July 2018 (EDT)

Name
So, if it isn't named in-game, i guess it's in the Prima guide? -- 02:08, April 12, 2019 (EDT)
 * And besides the Prima guide, do any guide mention it at any point? -- 08:02, May 4, 2019 (EDT)
 * It's basic inference what the name is. Why do we need a citation needed? 18:46, May 9, 2019 (EDT)
 * Because it's a specific entity and the JP guide distinguishes it with a boss-like name. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 19:03, May 9, 2019 (EDT)
 * Versus Books calls it the "Giant Koopa" on page 70 and Prima Games calls it the "Huge Red Electrokoopa" on pages 21 and 96; BradyGames refers to it as the "Denki Nokonoko" and "Koopa" on pages 82 and 83, respectively, but those would seem to generic terms for any given Electro-Koopa, and Nintendo Power simply calls it "the turtle" on page 72.
