'''Green Koopa Troopas''', also rendered as '''Koopa Troopas (Green)''' and occassionally referred to as '''Green Koopas''', are a variety of [[Koopa Troopa]] introduced alongside {{Fake link|Red Koopa Troopa}}s in the original ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' Unlike the red-shelled ones, Green Koopa Troopas walk straight off the edges of platforms without pause and are among the most recurring enemies in the games within which they appear. Green-shelled Koopa Troopas appear in isolation from their red counterparts in many of the spinoffs and a few of the mainline ''[[Super Mario (series)|Super Mario]]'' games, in which their color is usually not specified within the accompanying text and media.

The unfastidious movements of Green Koopa Troopas parallels the behavior of [[Koopa Paratroopa|Green Koopa Paratroopa]]s, which become Green Koopas when [[stomp]]ed, and [[Green Shell]]s in the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series. Though originally quadrupedal, they have largely been depicted as bipedal turtles with green shells and matching boots from ''[[Super Mario World]]'' onward.

In the Red Koopa Troopa's trophy description, the text "chase Mario with nets" is a mistranslation from the Japanese trophy description, which states that they chased Mario by climbing on wire nets, which occurred in castles and fortresses in ''Super Mario World''.

|desc=A henchman of Bowser. In the old days, they'd retreat into their shells for a short while to protect themselves after being stepped on. Recently, however, some have begun to immediately pop back out. You'll often find them marching straight ahead--if the path ends, they'll just march into the abyss. Surely there are no braver turtles to be found.

|desc=Koopa Troopas are the main representatives of Bowser's army. They are just about as common as Goombas. They know no fear, bravely charging ahead even if it means falling off a cliff or into a hole. They do this in Smash Run as well. Defeating them will reduce them to a shell you can throw.
|desc2=These turtles are just as common as Goombas in Bowser's army. They're brave little soldiers, and nothing will make them stop in their tracks – not you, not holes, not even cliffs. The same goes in Smash Run, too. Once they see a fighter, they'll go right after them. Beat them or stomp on them to turn them into shells you can throw.
