'''Black Shells''' are one of the rare colored variants of the [[Koopa Troopa|Koopa]] shell. Unlike the others, this type is capable of exploding. Despite their name, they appear to be a lavender or dark purple instead of black in the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart Arcade GP]]'' sub-series.

Black Shells appear as items in ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP]]''. Its effects are similar to that of a [[Spiny Shell (blue)|Spiny Shell]], though unlike a Spiny Shell, it can only be shot forward and straight like a [[Green Shell]], it has a higher appearance rate. They explode upon impact of a wall, obstacle, or other racer, sending those caught in the blast flipping for a second. [[Triple Black Shells]] also appear as an unlockable item.
