'''Dark Koopas''' are strong, purple-shelled [[Koopa Troopa]]s that live in dark places underground. They appear in the first two games of the ''[[Paper Mario (series)|Paper Mario]]'' series.
|log=A Koopa Troopa that prefers dark places. It has a very hard shell but you can flip it by jumping on it.
==History==
|tattle=That's a Dark Koopa. It lives in dark places that the light never reaches. It's a bit tougher than a regular Koopa, so you won't be able to beat it easily. But it DOES have the same weakness as a regular Koopa. Flip it over and it's helpless. Why do you think it needs sunglasses down here, anyway? What's the point?
===''Paper Mario''===
|before=[[Shady Paratroopa|15]]
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. Like normal Koopa Troopas, they are rendered temporarily helpless if knocked onto their backs.

|after=[[Dark Paratroopa|17]]}}
'''Dark Koopas''' are purple-shelled [[Koopa Troopa|Koopas]] that live in dark places underground. They are found in [[Toad Town Tunnels]] in ''[[Paper Mario]]'', where they sometimes grin and start to spin around when they attack, making their opponents [[dizzy]]. 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 and have the ability to right themselves after being flipped on their backs.


===''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''===
==Additional stats==
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]].

|tattle=This is a Dark Koopa. Dark Koopas are Koopa Troopas who live in the Toad Town Tunnels. They're known for causing dizziness. Be extra careful when you see 'em grin, because that means they're getting ready to do their dizzy attack. Their defense power is 0 when they're turned over, so you should use [[Jump]] attacks.
