The '''Extension Corps''' are the lieutenants of [[Zokket]]'s army, Zok Troops, and the secondary antagonists in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Brothership]]''. The trio consists of [[Ecks]], [[Ten]], and [[Shun]],<ref>[https://www.nintendo.com/en-gb/Games/Nintendo-Switch-games/Mario-Luigi-Brothership-2590264.html ''Mario & Luigi: Brothership''] official site, on ''Nintendo.com''. Retrieved on October 10, 2024.</ref> and their names are a pun on "extension cord."

==Description==
Each member of the Extension Corps is based on a different type of electrical connector, which is reflected by their collective name, a pun on "extension cord". [[Ecks]] can float, is magenta in color and wears a yellow cape with arms that resemble spade connectors. [[Ten]] resembles a headphone jack composed of his head resembling a male connector and one of his arms resembling a female connector. His design is invocative of a stereotypical delinquent in Japanese culture. The third one is named [[Shun]] whose body resembles a VGA connector. 

The Extension Corps share many similarities to the [[Best Fitness Friends]] from the ''[[Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'' side mode of ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'', and have a similar eye design to [[Antasma]] from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'', the [[Dark Star]] from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'', and [[Princess Shroob]] from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]''.

Unlike other members of the Zok Troops who were artificially created, the Extension Corps existed prior to Zokket and were recruited by him on [[Slippenglide Island]].
