He invents the [[GLOM]], a machine capable of creating loyal duplicates of people and monsters out of sand, in ''[[Double Trouble (book)|Double Trouble]]'', and uses it to overrun the Mushroom Kingdom with cloned citizens and monsters after capturing their images using spy cameras disguised as flowers. When Mario reaches Fort Koopa in the [[Koopahari Desert]], he can run into Iggy absentmindedly walking down a hall, and covertly follows him, until he accidentally alerts the Koopaling to his presence by knocking over a statue of Genghis Koopa. Running to his laboratory, which is hidden in a hall of mirrors in the basement, Iggy awaits Mario's arrival, and sics the GLOM on him when the plumber discovers him. Depending on the reader's choice of what to do next, Mario is either knocked out (either by his own clone or Iggy's duplicates) and dumped back in the hall of mirrors, or leads the GLOM into the hall, where it clones itself after seeing its own reflection; thrown into a panic by the development, Iggy can only watch in terror as the GLOM keeps cloning itself until it overloads and it and all the duplicates it created explode into sand, bringing Fort Koopa down, leaving Iggy, Bowser and [[Wendy O. Koopa|Wendy]] to dig themselves out of the rubble and limp their way back home. | He invents the [[GLOM]], a machine capable of creating loyal duplicates of people and monsters out of sand, in ''[[Double Trouble (book)|Double Trouble]]'', and uses it to overrun the Mushroom Kingdom with cloned citizens and monsters after capturing their images using spy cameras disguised as flowers.

After being cornered by Luigi in his [[Water Land]] houseboat in ''[[Leaping Lizards]]'', [[Morton Koopa Jr.|Morton]] summons Iggy and the [[Airship#Nintendo Adventure Books|Doom Ship]] as backup, but upon spotting Luigi, the bespectacled Koopaling abandons his brother out of fright. Shortly afterward, Iggy is tracked down to his secret laboratory, and reveals that he, as the winner (through cheating) of the International Mushroom Games held six years ago, possesses the magic silver whistle that can restore the [[Mushroom King]], who had been changed into a [[rabbit]] by Morton, to normal. Via old legal documents, Iggy reveals that only the rightful owner of the whistle can use it, and if someone else takes it it is punishable by a sentence of hard labor in the Sponge Mines; however, Iggy loses this advantage over the protagonists when Princess Toadstool reveals that the International Mushroom Games are going to be held again in three weeks, and Iggy is legally obligated to put his whistle up as the grand prize. | After being cornered by Luigi in his [[Water Land]] houseboat in ''[[Leaping Lizards]]'', [[Morton Koopa Jr.|Morton]] summons Iggy and the [[Airship#Nintendo Adventure Books|Doom Ship]] as backup, but upon spotting Luigi, the bespectacled Koopaling abandons his brother out of fright.

During the International Mushroom Games, Iggy and five of his siblings enter as a team, and Iggy competes in the Waterfall Race (where he makes Princess Toadstool lose by turning her around) and the Super Triple Jump, where he will use either a large spray can or a rocket-powered booster as a leap aid. If the Mushroom Kingdom Royals win the games, Iggy tries to sneak away, but is caught by the heroes, and reluctantly gives up his whistle after getting five coins from Luigi, as per the rules of the tournament. | ||
