'''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]]'' subseries.

==History==
'''Black Shells''' are [[shell]]s of unknown origin that appear in the ''[[Mario Kart GP]]'' series. Its effects are similar to that of a [[Spiny Shell (Mario Kart Item)|Winged Spiny Shell]], though unlike a Winged Spiny Shell, it can only be fired straight and has a higher appearance rate. They explode upon impact of a wall, obstacle, or other racer, sending those caught in the blast soaring for a second. They can also be used as a triple if unlocked.

====''Mario Kart Arcade GP DX''====
The shells of a [[Bombshell Koopa]] are black, and explode. Some evidently high-ranking members of the [[Koopa Troop]], such as some [[Fire Bros.]], [[Black Ninjakoopa]], and [[Lakithunder]], are shown to wear non-exploding Black Shells. Additionally, in ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'' [[Koopa Troopa]]s, [[Lakitu]]s, and [[Hammer Bro.|Hammer Brother]]s were portrayed as wearing, as the episode "[[Mario and Joliet]]" showed, fire-proof Black Shells.
