-'''Dark Koopas''' are purple-shelled [[Koopa Troopa|Koopas]] that live in dark places underground. They first debut in [[Toad Town Tunnels]] in ''[[Paper Mario]]'', where they sometimes grin and start to spin around when they attack, making their opponents [[dizzy]]. They are also stronger than regular Koopa Troopas. This is the only place in the game where they can be found, just like the [[Gloomba]] and [[Paragloomba|their]] [[Spiky Gloomba|relatives]].
+'''Dark Koopas''' are strong, purple-shelled [[Koopa Troopa]]s that live in dark places underground. They appear in early games of the ''[[Paper Mario (series)|Paper Mario]]'' series.
-Dark Koopas are also found in the [[Pit of 100 Trials (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|Pit of 100 Trials]] in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', but in this game, they do not cause dizziness. Instead, they are merely stronger than regular Koopa Troopas, having their stats doubled, and slightly stronger than they were in ''[[Paper Mario]]''. They are found in floors 31-39.
+==History==
+===''Paper Mario''===
+Dark Koopas debut in ''[[Paper Mario]]'', appearing solely in [[Toad Town Tunnels]] like the [[Gloomba]] family. They attack using stronger versions of normal Koopa Troopas' attacks. Additionally, sometimes while idling they will grin, jog in place, and occasionally spin around, signaling that they are preparing a special attack that can make [[Mario]] [[dizzy]]. They sometimes perform this for multiple consecutive turns, thus leaving Mario stuck and requiring his partner to attack.

+Dark Koopas reappear in the [[Pit of 100 Trials (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|Pit of 100 Trials]] in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', appearing in floors 31-39. They are even stronger than before, but can no longer use their dizziness-causing attack. In ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', this role is given to a pitch-black, shadowy Koopa also called [[Dark Koopa (Super Paper Mario)|Dark Koopa]], which appears in the [[Flopside Pit of 100 Trials]].
