'''Shell Mario | '''Shell Mario'''<ref>''New Super Mario Bros.'' instruction booklet, page 24.</ref> (also known as '''Koopa Mario'''<ref>[http://newsupermariobrosds.nintendo.com/ ''New Super Mario Bros.'' official website]</ref>) is a form of [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] that they can become by wearing a [[Blue Shell]]. | ||

This form lets Mario swim faster and with more accuracy, and gives him the [[Hammer Suit]]-like ability to dodge the attacks of enemies when he crouches. As long as he keeps ducking, he is safely protected from most enemies, but it will not protect him from [[Bob-omb]] explosions, [[Spiked Ball|spike balls]], [[Hammer|hammers]] thrown by [[Hammer Bro]]s. or [[Sledge Bro]]s., [[boomerang]]s from the [[Boomerang Bro]]s., and the [[Volcanic debris]] from [[World 8-8 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 8-8]]. | |||
If Mario runs for a short time, or crouches while on a downward slope, he slides in the shell through the level. This maneuver is called a [[Shell Dash]]. This move is extremely powerful, as Mario can defeat enemies such as [[Thwomp]]s and [[Boo]]s while doing so. However, the Shell Dash mechanics also make it almost impossible to [[Triple Jump]], while [[Double Jump]]ing becomes harder to perform, because the player must make the second jump while running but before Mario goes into the shell to slide. | |||

Shell Mario returns in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]''. The Blue Shell is an item found in the overworld, and it was introduced by a group of [[Blue Paratroopa|Blue Paratroopas]]. Mario can turn into Shell Mario by striking [[Shell Block]]s (which were spread around when Mario and Luigi hit a giant version of them). Luigi can then hit Mario using his hammer, and this makes Mario go into the shell, spinning straight forward. This can be used to hit blocks in areas which Mario and Luigi cannot directly go into. However, because the shell is so heavy, Mario is unable to jump in it. If he does, he loses the shell. It serves a similar purpose to [[Kooper]] and [[Koops]]' field abilities in the [[Paper Mario (series)|''Paper Mario'' series]]. | |||
