The babies helped her out and found the Yoshis. However the Yoshis got eaten by Yoob who also found them. Kylie Koopa was even foolish enough to go and take pictures right in Yoob's face.

“That's right, Kylie Koopa's got your number!”
Kylie Koopa, Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time

Kylie Koopa is a female pink-shelled Koopa Troopa who debuts in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time. She works as a journalist for the Koopa Kronicle, which is most likely a news organization in the Mushroom Kingdom of the past. As a reporter that is always on the lookout for "The Big Scoop", she has a ritzy personality, uses slang when she talks, and likes to take lots of pictures with her camera. Unlike most Koopas, she is one of the protagonistic side.

History

Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time

Kylie Koopa sprite from Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time

The four heroes of past and present first encountered her when they were traveling to Yoshi's Island. There, they saw her actively snapping pictures and getting information about the Shroob monster, Yoob. The Mario Bros. saw her trying to find out where the Yoshis were, and the babies helped her out. However, shortly after finding the Yoshis, they were also found and eaten by Yoob. Kylie Koopa was even foolish enough to go and take pictures right in Yoob's face. Yoob then inevitably ate her; however, since Kylie was a Koopa, Yoob immediately spat her out.

Kylie wasn't seen again until the 4 heroes entered Gritzy Desert, where she told the brothers about the Shroob meeting and the secret entrance to the Koopaseum. Later, she gets kidnapped and tied up by the Shroobs in the Koopaseum and then left as food for Petey Piranha. The Mario Bros. rescue her in Gritzy Caves and defeat Petey, and after revealing that Princess Peach had been eaten by Petey, but had been spat out, Kylie spun away. Later on in the game, when it seemed as all hope was lost for the Bros. against Princess Shroob, Kylie revealed that she was disguised as a Shroob and rescued the Bros. She then finds out Toadbert recovered his memory, and they quickly follow the Mario Bros. to tell them. However, she and Toadbert get defeated by an Elder Shrooboid and both get turned into Shroob Mushrooms by the Elder Shrooboid's lightning. At the end of the game, she gets turned back into normal form (along with many others) by baby tears.

One of the Toads in Peach's Castle mentions having read a book called "Fungicide: The Epic Battle for the Mushroom Kingdom". The book had been written by Kylie, and is implied to be about the adventure of the four Mario Bros. and their battle against the Shroobs.
