Shell Shock (item)

This article is about an item in Super Paper Mario. For Glitz Pit team, see Shellshockers or Shellshock.

Template:Pmitem-infobox A Shell Shock is an item in Super Paper Mario. Its design comes from the 8-bit sprite of a Green Koopa's shell from the game, Super Mario Bros.

When the player kicks the shell, it ricochets away and rams into enemies, damaging them. But it will also hurt the player, so they must be careful. Using the item activates a minigame where the shell bounces around the screen, and the player must press while hovering over it with a crosshair. If the player succeeds, the shell grows to almost three times its original size, but if the player fails, it stays small.

If the player gives this item to Saffron to cook, she will make a Courage Shell.
