'''Koops''' is a shy [[Koopa Troopa]] from [[Petalburg]], and the second [[partner]] to join [[Mario]]'s party in the game ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', after [[Goombella]]. His left eyelid is half-closed, and he wears a bandage on his nose, a light-blue, short-sleeve jacket with a hoodie, blue pants, and white shoes. Very much like [[Kooper]] from the original ''[[Paper Mario]]'', Koops can retreat into his shell and use it as a weapon against foes, and Mario can also launch him at switches or distant objects to hit them or retrieve them. However, he differs from Kooper in that Mario can hold Koops's shell in place. He has a girlfriend named [[Koopie Koo]] and a father named [[Koopley]]. His name is a portmanteau of "[[Koopa (species)|Koopa]]" and "oops", an exclamation of clumsiness (Koops being clumsy); it is also a [[wikipedia:Koops|real surname]]. Koops is the only party member to have a defense point without equipping a badge or using [[Power Lift]] or an item.

Koops first meets Mario in Petalburg. He doesn't say much, but before Mario leaves to another part of town, he stops him, then his shyness overcomes him and he goes back. When Mario goes off to [[Hooktail Castle]], he stops him again and is firm that he wants to join Mario's party in order to avenge his 'dead' father, but not before Koopie Koo finds out. She begs him not to go, but he says he has to be a strong Koopa for her. She gets mad, withdraws into her shell, and fires herself at Mario and Koops.

Inside the castle, Koops finds [[Kolorado's father|a skeleton]] that he believes is his father's. Reading the note the corpse was grasping reveals it was actually [[Kolorado]]'s father. Koops blushes and is slightly embarrassed, but then wonders if any of the other skeletons is his father.

When Mario and Koops first meet up with Hooktail, the dragon remarks that they look similar to one that passed by here recently. The battle then starts.

After a touching reunion, Koopley reveals he found the [[Diamond Star]] in Hooktail's stomach, and allows Mario to take it.

Koops is the only partner with a defense of 1. However, he has the lowest HP of all partners, having 15 HP when at Super Rank. Furthermore, if an enemy jumps on him and he isn't able to defend himself using an [[Action Command]], he gets flipped over and cannot move while also losing a defense point.

—Koops, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

Koops is a Koopa Troopa from Petalburg who is the second Mario's partner in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. His left eyelid is half-closed, and he wears a bandage on his nose, a light-blue, short-sleeve jacket with a hoodie, blue pants, and white shoes. Very much like Kooper from the original Paper Mario, Koops can retreat into his shell and use it as a weapon against foes, and Mario can also launch him at switches or distant objects to hit them or retrieve them. However, he differs from Kooper in that Mario can hold Koops's shell in place. He has a girlfriend named Koopie Koo and a father named Koopley. His name is a portmanteau of "Koopa" and "oops", an exclamation of clumsiness (Koops being clumsy); it is also a real surname. Koops is the only party member to have a defense point without equipping a badge or using Power Lift or an item.

History

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

Koops stops Mario, but his shyness overcomes him and he goes back.

Koops is going to travel with Mario.

Koops first meets Mario in Petalburg. He doesn't say much, but before Mario leaves to another part of town, he stops the latter, however Koops' shyness overcomes him and he goes back. When Mario goes off to Hooktail Castle, Koops stops him again and cries that he wants to join Mario's party in order to avenge his 'dead' father, but not before Koopie Koo finds out. She begs him not to go, but he says that his goal is to be a strong Koopa for her, which makes Koops' girlfriend mad, and results her to withdrawing into her shell and firing herself at Mario and Koops.

Inside the castle, Koops finds a skeleton that he believes is his father's. Reading the note the corpse was grasping reveals it was actually Kolorado's father, and Koops blushes while being slightly embarrassed, but then wonders if any of the other skeletons is his father.

When Mario and Koops first meet up with Hooktail, the dragon remarks that they look similar to one that passed by here recently, then the battle then starts. Once the fight is finished, a near-dead Hooktail spits up Koopley, who was living in Hooktail's stomach for ten years. After a reunion with his son, Koopley reveals he found the Diamond Star in Hooktail's stomach, and allows Mario to take it.

After assisting Mario in his quest to collect the rest of the Crystal Stars and save Princess Peach, Koops returns to Petalburg where he makes plans to marry Koopie Koo and run for mayor.

Koops is the only partner with a defense of 1. However, he has the lowest health of all partners at Super Rank and regains this status at the Ultra Rank with Ms. Mowz (Koops has 15 and 25 Health Points, respectively). Furthermore, if an enemy jumps on Koops and the player isn't able to defend him by using an Action Command, this partner gets flipped over and cannot move while also losing a defense point, much like the other Koopa Troopa enemies as well.

Super Paper Mario

In Super Paper Mario, Koops appears as a Catch Card won by winning the Duel of 100 in the Sammer's Kingdom. Koops could also be seen very briefly during the intro, where he and all the other partners from the previous Paper Mario titles could be seen in a photograph at the Mario Bros.' House.
