'''Koopa Paratroopas''' (also known as '''Para-Koopas''', '''Sky Troopas''' in the original ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'', '''Koopa Flying Troopers''',<ref>{{cite|title=Alt text of the Koopa Paratroopa decoration in the ''[[Nintendo Online Calendar Creator#Mushroom Kingdom 2021 Calendar Creator|Mushroom Kingdom 2021 Calendar Creator]]''|archive=web.archive.org/web/20210810004641/https://play.nintendo.com/activities/play/nintendo-online-calendar-creator|deadlink=y|publisher=[[Play Nintendo]]|language=en-us|accessdate=June 13, 2023}}</ref> or commonly simply '''Paratroopas''') are [[List of enemies|enemies]] introduced in ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' They are [[Koopa Troopa]]s with a pair of wings. Koopa Paratroopa commonly appear in two varieties: Red Koopa Paratroopas usually fly up and down in a set path, while Green Koopa Paratroopas often bounce in the player's general direction or fly back and forth. Koopa Paratroopas lose their wings if [[stomp]]ed, turning them into regular Koopa Troopas. Koopa Paratroopas are playable in various spin-off games, most of them wearing a red shell. Their name is a corruption of "paratrooper", a term used in the military to describe soldiers who parachute down to attack.
 
'''Koopa Paratroopas''' (also known as '''Parakoopas''', '''Sky Troopas''' in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'', or simply '''Paratroopas''') are [[Koopa Troopa]]s with wings. They lose their wings when they are attacked in air, such as getting stomped or hurt by fireballs. They traditionally come in two varieties: Red Koopa Paratroopas usually fly up and down or side to side in a set path, while green Koopa Paratroopas often bounce in the player's general direction. Red Koopa Paratroopas first appear in World 1-3 of ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', while the green ones first appear in World 2-1 of the same game. However, some Paratroopas hover left and right. Their name comes from "paratrooper", a term used in the military to describe soldiers who parachute down to attack.

[[File:SMB Artwork - Koopa Paratroopa Alt.png|thumb|110px|Artwork from ''Super Mario Bros.'', depicting their original design]]
[[File:KoopaPara SMB.png|thumb|115px|Artwork of a Koopa Paratroopa from ''Super Mario Bros.''.]]
Koopa Paratroopas appear in ''Super Mario Bros.'' They are depicted in green and red varieties, the former appearing teal in underground and castle [[level]]s. Red Koopa Paratroopas that always move vertically are first encountered in [[World 1-3 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 1-3]], while the green type is first encountered in [[World 2-1 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 2-1]]. These ones either bounce around or fly in a horizontal direction.
Paratroopas debut in ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', when [[Bowser]] decides to overrun the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] and steal [[Princess Peach]]. They lose their wings and turn into normal [[Koopa Troopa]]s if [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] jump on them. They keep their two different attack patterns: Green Paratroopas that fly back and forth, while the Red Paratroopas that can actually fly up and down. If Mario or Luigi jumps on them to clip their wings before they touch the ground, they turn around and go whichever way the player is.


====''Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels''====
====''Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels''====
Koopa Paratroopas return in ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]''. They are depicted in the same varieties as before. Green Koopa Paratroopas are first encountered in [[World 1-1 (Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels)|World 1-1]], while the red type debuts in [[World 1-3 (Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels)|World 1-3]]. Koopa Paratroopas are encountered in some of the underwater levels, with the green type appearing gray in the [[Family Computer Disk System]] release due to the hardware palette. Koopa Paratroopas are also in levels where jumping from them is required to make it across [[pit]]s. All green Koopa Paratroopas hop, except for those encountered in [[World 7-3 (Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels)|World 7-3]].
Once again, [[Bowser]] decides to kidnap [[Princess Peach]] in the Japan-only game (until ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'') called ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]''. Here, Paratroopas are a very common enemy, and in some levels even more common than [[Koopa]]s or [[Goomba]]s. Their attack pattern is very different from any other game, since both colors can jump up and down and fly. They also appear in certain water levels, where they cannot be stomped.


====''Super Mario Bros. 3'' / ''Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3''====
====''Super Mario Bros. 3''====
Koopa Paratroopas return in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. They are depicted in green and red varieties. Koopa Paratroopas are first encountered in [[World 1-1 (Super Mario Bros. 3)|World 1-1]]. They are have little difference from before. The game adds large variants, [[Big Koopa Paratroopa|Colossal Koopa Paratroopa]]s, and the [[P-Wing]], a wing of a Koopa Paratroopa that fills the [[P-Meter|Power Meter]] for one level.
While Paratroopas do appear in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', they are not very common, unlike in most other 2D sidescrolling games. They retain the same role they play in ''Super Mario Bros.'', including their red and green colouration. Additionally, a usable item called the P-Wing, meaning "Paratroopa Wing", allows Mario or Luigi to fly around an entire level without wearing out, although the effects end once they go to the next level.

Koopa Paratroopas reappear in ''[[Super Mario World]]'' when [[Bowser]] interferes [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], and [[Princess Peach]]'s trip to [[Yoshi's Island]]. In this game, many of them are capable of flight instead of simply hopping, including all red varieties and certain green Paratroopas. They still lose their wings when jumped on by Mario or Luigi. If Mario or Luigi jumps on them while riding Yoshi, they are defeated in a single stomp. In some situations, it is necessary to bounce off of flying Paratroopas to cross gaps.

They are depicted with the same two varieties plus a yellow variety, though there is no blue type corresponding to the blue Koopa Troopas; every Koopa Paratroopa is upright instead of quadrupedal, like Koopa Troopas. Koopa Paratroopas all wear Mario masks during [[Fall]], like with Koopa Troopas. Koopa Paratroopas are first encountered in [[Yoshi's Island 3]]. Green Koopa Paratroopas either jump in a horizontal direction, at varying heights, or fly in a direction. Red-shelled Koopa Paratroopas have a few more actions, sometimes now flying in a programmed left to right pattern or continuously in either direction. Yellow Koopa Paratroopas walk like Koopa Troopas while jumping over shells in front and chasing the player character. Jumping on them gets rid of their wings and turn them into regular yellow-shelled Koopas. Any Koopa Paratroopa is defeated instantly if [[stomp]]ed by [[Yoshi]].


<div class="contentbox mw-collapsible mw-collapsed"data-expandtext="Show level appearances"data-collapsetext="Hide level appearances">
Green-shelled Paratroopas either jump in one direction, some jumping higher than others, or fly in one direction, while the red-shelled Paratroopas fly back and forth horizontally or vertically. Even though blue-shelled Koopas and yellow-shelled Koopas are introduced in this game, only the yellow-shelled Koopas have a Paratroopa variant. Yellow-shelled Paratroopas act like regular Koopas, but they chase after Mario and jump over any shells that are in their way. Jumping on them gets rid of their wings and turn them into regular yellow-shelled Koopas. Yellow-shelled Paratroopas only appear in the [[Special World]] levels [[Awesome]] and [[Funky (Super Mario World)|Funky]], making them very rare enemies.

Koopa Paratroopas return in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' They appear in green and red varieties. Koopa Paratroopas are first encountered in [[World 1-4 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 1-4]]. Both types can bounce towards players and fly. Koopa Paratroopas are unresponsive to [[paah|bah]] sounds.
Paratroopas make an appearance as a common enemy in the 2D platformer, ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' In this game, they act the same as they did in ''Super Mario Bros.'' Only red and green Paratroopas appear in this game. Unlike Koopa Troopas, they do not move to the music; they just simply fly in their set direction, or up and down like [[Paragoombas]].

Koopa Paratroopas return in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. They appear in green and red varieties. Koopa Paratroopas are first encountered in [[World 1-4 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 1-4]]. They can sometimes appear in the boss fight against [[Kamek|Magikoopa]] hitting platform units with his magic. Koopa Paratroopas are responsive to the background music, like before. Besides player characters, Koopa Paratroopa also loses its wings if stomped by Yoshi, unlike ''Super Mario World''. A Koopa Paratroopa is defeated from a [[Ground Pound]] instantly.
Paratroopas reappear in the successor of ''New Super Mario Bros.'', ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. Here, they have the same attack pattern as the previous games. Unlike its predecessor, the Paratroopas move to the music while flying. Like the predecessor, only green and red Paratroopas appear. However, unlike in ''Super Mario World'', whenever Yoshi jumps on a Koopa Paratroopa, it simply loses its wings, instead of being defeated instantly, but a ground pound still takes one out with a single blow.


====''New Super Mario Bros. 2''====
====''New Super Mario Bros. 2''====
Paratroopas return in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]''. They appear in green and red varieties. Paratroopas are first encountered in [[World 1-3 (New Super Mario Bros. 2)|World 1-3]]. Green Paratroopas have the ability to move in circles.
Paratroopas reappear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', acting the same as in previous games. Green Paratroopas are more common in this game, as they can now travel in circles and not just horizontal or vertical lines, as red ones only appear in a few levels.


====''New Super Mario Bros. U'' / ''New Super Luigi U''====
====''New Super Mario Bros. U''====
Paratroopas return in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'', and [[New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe|their port]]. They appear in green and red varieties. Paratroopas are first encountered in [[Stone-Eye Zone]] of ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' and [[Dancing Blocks, Poison Swamp]] of ''New Super Luigi U''. Paratroopas behave no differently than before.
Both Red and Green Paratroopas reappear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', acting as in previous games.


====''Super Mario 3D World'' / ''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury''====
====''Super Mario 3D World''====
{{main|Parabones}}
While Paratroopas themselves don't appear in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'', a [[Parabones|dry]] version is introduced. They are the only flying sub-species of Koopa Troopa to appear in a 3D platformer, even before the standard Paratroopa. Parabones fly a small distance above the ground and attack the player if they notice. Like normal [[Dry Bones]], if a Parabones is attacked without the use of a [[Super Star|Star]], [[Lucky Bell]], or [[Invincibility Leaf]], it will collapse temporarily, but reassemble itself after a short time. During its reassembly, it is vulnerable to getting attacked. A Parabones can also be permanently destroyed if it collapses over [[lava]] or a [[pit (obstacle)|pit]]. Unlike Paratroopas, their wings also reassemble after they get hit, like their other counterparts, the Dry Bones.
Paratroopas do not appear in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' nor ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]'', though a skeletal variety, [[Parabones]], was added.


====''Super Mario Maker'' series====
====''Super Mario Maker''====
Koopa Paratroopas are course elements in ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'', [[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS|its port]], and ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]''. They appear in green and red varieties. Koopa Paratroopas are created by combining a [[Koopa Troopa]] with a pair of [[wings]]. Both variants behave similar to how they did in ''Super Mario Bros.'', with green Paratroopas leaping endlessly in a zig-zag pattern, and the red type flying up and down. Koopa Paratroopas become [[Big Koopa Paratroopa]]s if given a [[Super Mushroom]].
Koopa Paratroopas reappear in ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'' as variants of Koopa Troopas. They function the same as before. They can be made in the Course Maker by dragging wings on a Koopa Troopa.


In ''Super Mario Maker 2'', Koopa Paratroopas can be given a parachute; stomping on one will get rid of both the parachute and the wings at once. If a red Paratroopa with a parachute lands on ground, it will fly upwards slightly lower than Paratroopas placed on that same elevation. Because most enemies can still be given wings in the ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' style, Paratroopas can be placed there, with green ones in particular getting determined looks on their faces and shown to be scuttling their feet while jumping.
===''Super Mario Bros.: Peach-hime Kyushutsu Dai Sakusen!''===
 
A Paratroopa appears when [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], and [[Kibidango]] get captured by her so she can feed her babies. However, the Paratroopa's intention was to feed the chick instead of being an enemy to the hostages.
====''Super Mario Run''====
Koopa Paratroopas are enemies in ''[[Super Mario Run]]''. They fly in either fixed horizontal or vertical directions. They only appear with red shells in this game. Stomping one one kicks the shell immediately, instead of only removing the wings and leaving it a Red Koopa Troopa as in other games. They first appear in [[Paratroopas in Mushroom Valley]].
 
===''Super Mario Bros.: Peach-hime Kyūshutsu Dai Sakusen!''===
Paratroopas appear in ''[[Super Mario Bros.: Peach-hime Kyūshutsu Dai Sakusen!]]''. Several of them fly out of a television screen while Mario plays the [[Family Computer]]. A [[Big Koopa Paratroopa|colossal-sized Paratroopa]] also appears.

In ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'', Koopa Paratroopas make only two appearances, in the episodes "[[King Mario of Cramalot]]" and "[[Princess, I Shrunk the Mario Brothers]]". In "King Mario of Cramalot", they drop a net on top of Mario, Luigi, Toad, [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]] and [[Mervin the Magician]]. The Koopa Paratroopas are based off the show's Koopa Troopa design, except that they are depicted in shades of red while having wings similar to a bee's, rather than their usual feathered ones. Much like the Koopa Troopas that appeared in that same episode, the Koopa Paratroopas are dressed up as knights to fit the medieval setting of [[Cramalot]]. In "Princess, I Shrunk the Mario Brothers", when the Koopa Troopas are shrunk, one that is jumping has a pair of wings.

Koopa Paratroopas are background characters in the episode "[[Do the Koopa]]" of ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. They resemble their in-game design more closely than in the previous show. The Koopa Paratroopas dance in the [[Airship|Doomship's]] cargo hold.
Koopa Paratroopas have a very brief cameo in ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' episode "[[Do the Koopa]]", where several of them can be seen dancing along with a few [[Paragoomba]]s in the [[Airship|Doomship's]] cargo hold. Unlike the Koopa Paratroopas from ''The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!'', these ones are redesigned to better resemble their in-game counterparts. Standard Koopa Troopas never appear on the show.

Koopa Paratroopas are summoned with [[Monty Mole]]s by [[Iggy]] in ''[[Super Mario World: Mario to Yoshi no Bōken Land]]''. They are defeated from Yoshi's Fire Breath.
In the interactive OVA ''[[Super Mario World: Mario to Yoshi no Bōken Land]]'', after [[Iggy Koopa|Iggy's]] horde of [[Koopa Troopa]]s, [[Rex]]es, and [[Chargin' Chuck]]s is defeated by [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], and [[Yoshi]], he summons a group of Koopa Paratroopas and [[Monty Mole]]s. They are quickly disposed of when Yoshi swallows a [[Green Shell]] and breathes fire on them.

A Koopa Paratroopa is a minor character in the story "[[Marios Rückkehr]]" of ''[[Club Nintendo (German magazine)|Club Nintendo]]''. It turns [[Raccoon Mario]] into regular Mario after crashing into him.

Koopa Paratroopas are antagonists in ''[[Super Mario Adventures]]''. They appear in red and green varieties. Koopa Paratroopas appear during the onslaught at the start. Some Koopa Paratroopas (incorrectly identified by Luigi as [[Mechakoopa|Mecha-Koopa]]s) are sent out by King Koopa to attack the Mario Bros. The Paratroopas are fought off by Mario while Yoshi eats them.
Koopa Paratroopas make a few appearances throughout ''[[Super Mario Adventures]]''. A few green and red ones can be seen in the onslaught at the beginning of the story. Later, after recapturing Princess Peach, Bowser sends some Paratroopas, mostly red and green ones, to attack the Mario Bros. (Luigi curiously mistakes them for [[Mechakoopa]]s.) Mario manages to fight off the Paratroopas while Yoshi eats them until he eats a blue Koopa Troopa and gains wings.

They can be inserted into a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]]'s mouth, in which case they lose their wings and become Koopas, but not eaten. Green Para-Koopas hop and the red type travels back and forth.
Chronologically, Paratroopa's first appearance is in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'', though they are called '''Para-Koopas'''<ref>''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' Nintendo Player's Guide. [[Media:SMW2 Guide 128.jpg|Page 128]].</ref>. They are basic enemies in this game, alongside the Koopa Troopas. There are two varieties: red and green-shelled. As in ''Super Mario World'', the red variety flies back and forth on a set path, while the green ones can only hop towards the player. As in other games, stomping on them causes their wings to fall off and turns them into regular Koopa Troopas. Yoshi cannot swallow Parakoopas, but like regular Koopas, he can spit them back out to make them slide across the ground in their shells, defeating enemies in their path. Licking them up also makes them lose their wings. Paratroopas are very common in this game, sometimes even more common than Koopa Troopas. Their appearance in this game resembles their official art much more than in previous games.

===''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars''===
In this game, all Sky Troopas have red shells and do not lose their wings when hit. These shells give Sky Troopas a high defense rating compared to other enemies fought early in the game. Additionally, Sky Troopas use their shells for offense. To attack, they hide in their shells and then ram into their opponent with force.

Paratroopas, named '''Sky Troopas''' in the original, are enemies in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' and [[Super Mario RPG (Nintendo Switch)|its remake]]. They are encountered in [[Mushroom Way]], [[Bandit's Way]], and [[Booster Pass]]. Paratroopas are all depicted wearing red shells. They do not lose their wings when hit. Pararoopas attack by ramming their opponent while hiding in their shell.


In Mushroom Way, some Paratroopas guard [[treasure chest|treasure box]]es while others actively pursue [[Mario]]. One Paratroopa even kidnaps [[Toad]]. In battle, Paratroopas either fight alone or in pairs. At Mushroom Way and in Booster Pass, Paratroopas also aid [[Spikey (Super Mario RPG)|Spikey]]s in battle if the Spikeys are attacked. Four Paratroopas can be fought in Bandit's Way while Mario chases [[Croco]] through the last area of the level. They fly high in the sky and do not actively pursue Mario, therefore he has to [[jump]] if he wants to fight them. After Croco is defeated, these Paratroopas disappear and do not return for the rest of the game.

One prominent Paratroopa featured in the game is [[Sergeant Flutter]], a reformed Koopa who leads a large squad of friendly Paratroopas. These Paratroopas help out Mario in his quest for the [[Star Piece (Super Mario RPG)|Star Piece]]s at the behest of [[Monstermama]], the leader of [[Monstro Town]]. These Paratroopas assist Mario in ascending the steep cliff located at the end of [[Land's End]], allowing him to reach [[Bean Valley]] and eventually [[Nimbus Land]]. Mario accomplishes this by jumping from Paratroopa to Paratroopa, each Paratroopa carrying Mario higher into the air and closer to the next Paratroopa. If Mario scales the cliff quickly by bypassing the normal sequence of Paratroopa hops, he is rewarded with prizes.

Koopa Paratroopas have an identical appearance to their parent species, the [[Koopa Troopa]]. They are designed after tortoises, and were originally designed being a quadruped until ''Super Mario World'', although various artwork of Paratroopas have anthropomorphized quadruped Paratroopas. In ''Super Mario World'', they have been given shoes to designate their current bipedal appearance, just as regular Koopa Troopas have gotten. Most artwork of Paratroopas have colored their shells red to further distinguish from regular Koopa Troopa, though multiple artwork of green-shelled Paratroopas exist. All playable appearances of a Koopa Paratroopa have been red-shelled, with some exceptions including the ''Mario Baseball'' games giving players the choice to choose different colors for the Paratroopa, although the red Paratroopa is the default color regardless.
Koopa Paratroopas also appear in ''[[Super Princess Peach]]'', having the same roles from the ''Mario'' platformer games. They have the same appearance as in the ''Yoshi's Island'' games. Two types of Paratroopas under the effects of the [[Vibe Scepter]] also appear: the [[Mad Green Paratroopa]] and the [[Glad Red Paratroopa]].


The most distinguishing feature of Paratroopas are their wings, which enable them to fly. These wings are not firmly attached to the Paratroopa's shells, with usually a single stomp getting rid of their wings and turning them into normal Koopa Troopas; this is further enhanced by the ability of simply adding wings to multiple objects in ''Super Mario Maker'', Koopa Troopas included and the existence of the [[P-Wing]]. The shell-color of the Paratroopa is additionally used to separate behavioral differences: green-shelled Paratroopas typically bounce around or fly left and right while red-shelled Paratroopas fly up and down; many exceptions are made to this rule, however. The Paratroopa's wing length differs from game to game, with Paratroopas in ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'', ''Paper Mario'', ''Yoshi's Island DS'', and ''Super Princess Peach'' having very long wings, though the normal length for most games of the wings is rather short.
===''Super Mario Maker''===
Koopa Paratroopas are enemies in ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'', just like in past 2D ''Mario'' games. They can be created by combining a [[Koopa Troopa]] with a pair of [[wing]]s.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AmdHlh4xylo</ref> Green Paratroopas continuously leap on the ground in a zig-zag pattern, while the Paratroopas of red variety fly up and down on a vertical route. The player can enlarge Koopa Paratroopas by dragging a [[Super Mushroom]] onto them, and the said enemies become [[Colossal Koopa Paratroopa]]s.
{{br}}


In games where Paratroopas have a voice, Paratroopas mostly borrow their voice clips from Koopa Troopa's electronic ones. Initially, Paratroopa sounds identically to Koopa Troopa beginning with ''Mario Tennis'' for the Nintendo 64; ''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!'' is the first game to increase the pitch of its voice clips to distinguish from Koopa Troopa and has been the norm for Paratroopa ever since, with a few exceptions.
===Other appearances, cameos and references===
Koopa Paratroopas appear in ''[[Skylanders: SuperChargers]]'' as part of Bowser's moveset; however, due to an agreement between Nintendo and [[wikipedia:Activision|Activision]], they are featured exclusively on the Nintendo versions of the game.


==Profiles and statistics==
==Quotes==
{{main|List of Koopa Paratroopa profiles and statistics}}
*"''Determine the amount of coins that everyone will lose.''" - Landing on the space with the effect of the Paratroopa Capsule or using that capsule in ''Mario Party 5''.
Bios often mention the ability of Koopa Paratroopas to fly and to lose its wings to turn into Koopa Troopas once they are stomped on. In various ''Super Mario'' RPGs barring ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'', Koopa Paratroopas feature very similar stats to Koopa Troopas, having high defense due to the protection of their shells and they can avoid grounded attacks thanks to their flying nature. However, their wings can usually be removed by the means of jumping on them, which turns them into ordinary Koopa Troopas. In the sports spin-offs that feature a playable Koopa Paratroopa, the playable Paratroopas are usually classified as technical or trickier characters, having a focus on outplaying and managing their opponents differently than relying on pure power or speed stats. Aside from that, they are usually very balanced, having no huge strengths or weaknesses.
*"''And so... [number rolled on Dice Block] coin(s) are gone!''" After the Dice Block is rolled during the event of the Paratroopa Capsule in ''Mario Party 5''.
*"''Some coins have been taken!''" The end of the Paratroopa Capsule event in ''Mario Party 5''.
*"''Ten-hut! Paratroopa here! I'll swap your place with [owner of the roadblock space] on the double!''" When a player passes their opponent's roadblock space with an effect of the Paratroopa Orb in ''Mario Party 6''.
*"''Best of luck out there!''" The end of the Paratroopa Orb event in ''Mario Party 6''.
*"''Welcome to Junk, the item superstore!''" When a player enters Junk in ''Mario Party Advance''.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*In ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' concept art, Koopa Paratroopa is tentatively named「フライング クリーパー」(''Furaingu Kurīpā'', Flying Creeper), based on [[Shellcreeper]].<ref>{{cite|author=Nintendo of America|date=September 14, 2015|url=www.youtube.com/watch?v=C73f618-3pk&t=2517s|title=Nintendo Digital Event @ E3 2015|timestamp=41:57|language=en-us|publisher=YouTube|accessdate=October 18, 2021}}</ref>
*A scene in ''[[Super Mario Bros.: Peach-hime Kyushutsu Dai Sakusen!]]'' shows a mother Paratroopa feeding her shell-less babies in a nest that looks similar to a birds' nest, possibly implying that Paratroopas are raised in a similar fashion to birds.
*Out of all the enemies from ''Super Mario Bros.'', Paratroopas and [[Buzzy Beetle]]s are the only ones that have yet to appear in a 3D platforming ''[[Super Mario (series)|Super Mario]]'' game. However, [[Parabones]], which are the undead equivalent of Koopa Paratroopas, have appeared in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''.
*Out of all the classic enemies from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', Paratroopas and [[Buzzy Beetles]] are the only ones that have not appeared in a 3D ''Mario'' platformer.
*In the original release of ''Super Mario Bros.'', Koopa Paratroopas had a minor graphical error with their wings that would cause a gap in their shell grooves in one specific frame of their flight animation, which wouldn't be fixed until ''[[Super Mario Bros.#Alternate versions and re-releases|25th Anniversary SUPER MARIO BROS.]]'' in 2010.
*In ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]'', the Paratroopa's method of diving towards Mario from the sky to start a battle is similar to the [[Love Bubble]]'s diving method to start the battle from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]''.
