Lemmy debuts in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', where he and the other Koopalings aid [[Bowser]] in his conquest of the various realms of the [[Mushroom World]]. Lemmy takes over [[Ice Land]], stealing the [[magic wand]] of its [[Kings|king]] and turning him into a seal in the [[Family Computer]] and [[Nintendo Entertainment System]] versions, or a [[Monty Mole]] in the ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' remakes. Lemmy is found and battled in the cabin of his [[airship]] at the end of World 6. He rides a [[magical ball]] around during battle, and uses his wand to summon additional balls; once summoned, they do not disappear. The balls are obstacles and can be jumped on, but will shrink Mario or Luigi or make them lose a life if they are touched in any other way. At first, he balances in place on the right side of the room, conjuring balls. | Lemmy debuts in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', where he and the other Koopalings aid [[Bowser]] in his conquest of the various realms of the [[Mushroom World]].

The balls are obstacles and can be jumped on, but will shrink Mario or Luigi or make them lose a life if they are touched in any other way. At first, he balances in place on the right side of the room, conjuring balls. When jumped on and withdrawing into his shell, Lemmy stays in one place on his ball instead of jumping around. After coming back out of his shell, he begins running erratically around the room while summoning more balls. Being stomped three times defeats Lemmy, allowing [[Mario]] to return the magic wand to its king, and also turning the king back to normal. | ||
In ''[[Nintendo Power]]'' coverage for ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', Lemmy is nicknamed the "Clown Prince of Koopas," a likely reference to one of the nicknames for Batman's archnemesis, {{wp|Joker (character)|the Joker}} (the "Clown Prince of Crime"), itself a pun on the term for the heir apparent of monarchies ("Crown Prince"). | In ''[[Nintendo Power]]'' coverage for ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', Lemmy is nicknamed the "Clown Prince of Koopas," a likely reference to one of the nicknames for Batman's archnemesis, {{wp|Joker (character)|the Joker}} (the "Clown Prince of Crime"), itself a pun on the term for the heir apparent of monarchies ("Crown Prince"). | ||

Lemmy has the same yellow and tan skin complexion, as well as a green oval-shaped head, that is disproportionately large compared to his small body and features a distinctive pair of orange bars on the left-side and a multi-colored mohawk, that goes from yellow, magenta, cyan, yellow, magenta, to cyan, and ends in a long yellow rat tail that fades to a more orange hue at the tip. He has large, oval eyes that are often crossed or even pointing in opposite directions, although since ''Mario Kart 8'', it has been shown that he normally keeps his eyes correctly aligned. He is the only Koopaling with visible eyes to lack colored irises. He was shown to have teeth and eyelids in ''[[Super Mario World]]'' as well as in a short comic in ''Super Mario | Lemmy has the same yellow and tan skin complexion, as well as a green oval-shaped head, that is disproportionately large compared to his small body and features a distinctive pair of orange bars on the left-side and a multi-colored mohawk, that goes from yellow, magenta, cyan, yellow, magenta, to cyan, and ends in a long yellow rat tail that fades to a more orange hue at the tip.

He wears the same spiked metal cuffs as his male siblings. He also has a three-ribbed plated belly and padded feet with claws on his toes which are more pointed and more noticeable than those of the other [[Koopalings]]. | ||
In his hand-drawn artwork of the redesigned version, he lacks the last blue tuft of the mohawk and the orange stripes are on the right side of his head. In his sprites of ''[[Super Mario World]]'' the stripes are absent. In both remakes of ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', the sprites show an orange mohawk, that is completely white in ''Super Mario World''. In sprites of ''Super Mario World'' his shell is yellow despite the existence of a more appropriate palette (the green Koopa's palette), which would match the green color of his shell shown in the artwork of said game. Lemmy's ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' sprite has the same palette as [[Bowser|Bowser's]] sprite. | In his hand-drawn artwork of the redesigned version, he lacks the last blue tuft of the mohawk and the orange stripes are on the right side of his head.
