Editing Hookbill the Koopa

Hookbill the Koopa is the main boss of [[World 4 (Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island)|World 4]] in ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' and [[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3|its remake]], where it resides atop the [[Hookbill The Koopa's Castle|castle of that world]]. When [[Yoshi (species)|Blue Yoshi]] and [[Baby Mario]] reach the area with Hookbill, they encounter a normal Koopa Troopa, whom [[Kamek]] suddenly casts his magic on to enlarge it into Hookbill the Koopa. Walking on all fours, he creeps towards Blue Yoshi to attack him and Baby Mario. After walking on all fours for some time, he stands up and runs in Blue Yoshi's direction and lunges at him. Hookbill can take damage from [[Yoshi's Egg|egg]]s being thrown at either his head or arms. Hookbill coughs up eggs for Blue Yoshi to use if either his head or shell is stomped. After four hits while on all fours or after three hits while on two legs, Hookbill will fall backwards, leaving his belly vulnerable to being [[Ground Pound|ground pounded]] and damage. Hookbill then retreats into his shell to start pounding the ground, though this also occurs after a period of time. After three hits, Hookbill's shell explodes and disappears, and Hookbill (with no shell and reverted to normal size) falls from the top of the castle in defeat.

|JapM=The shell body attack is extremely dangerous. But since he is a turtle, he can be turned over on his back. When you step on his back, he spits out eggs while whimpering.  It's a little creepy.

|Eng=Mists swirl around the castle high up in the mountains at the end of World 4. Yoshi finally makes it to the parapet, the mists clear, and Eeek! It's a giant Koopa Troopa! Fortunately, Yoshi keeps his wits about him and remembers that Koopa Troopas are most vulnerable when on their backs. Watch out, though. Hookbill has the unique ability to pull in his head and shell the opposition.<ref>{{cite|author=Miller, Kent, and Terry Munson|title=''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' Player's Guide|page=18|date=1995|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=American English}}</ref>
