- “Hey. You. Gonzales. Since you didn't want that cake, I ate it. Best cake I ever had, man. Sprinkles, frosting, the works. You're an idiot.”
- —Shellshock, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door
Shellshock is a minor character in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. He is a common Shady Koopa who became a contracted fighter in the Glitz Pit, the martial arts arena of the floating town of Glitzville. Shellshock and his fighting team, the Shellshockers, are ranked #7 in the fighting roster and thus are a part of the major-league. Shellshock often ends his sentences with the word "baby." After Mario defeats Shellshock in battle, he begins talking about how he loses motivation when he sees how Mario is progressing.
Mario encounters Shellshock in the midst of Chapter Three, while he is searching for the Gold Star. After Mario defeats the Iron Adonis Twins, Mario switches to the major-league and he and Shellshock become roommates. If Mario manages to rise his rank up to #8, the player has the opportunity to battle Shellshock's fighting team, and if he wins, his ranking goes up further.
At some other points in Chapter Three, Mario receives two cakes that were apparently sent by a fan, one of which is a Poisoned Cake. Mario can eat the first one, which replenishes his stats. If he decides to eat the second one however, Mario's partner is disabled by Poison. The player can also choose to ignore the cakes, which results in Shellshock eating them while Mario is away fighting. He mocks Mario how he enjoyed his meal after ignoring the first cake. When Mario returns from his match after having declined the second cake, he finds Shellshock in a disabled state, lying on the ground and squirming, probably from a stomachache, and also vows never to have another cake after the experience. He recovers from this after Mario ends another match.
A Shady Koopa appears in the cutscene during the final fight against the Shadow Queen, alongside other athletes. There he can be seen cheering Mario on through the Gold Star. It is, however, very likely that this character was originally supposed to be King K and his sprite was simply misplaced with that of a Shady Koopa; said character uses terms in his speech that were used exclusively by King K throughout the game (like "G-man"). This error was fixed in the Nintendo Switch remake.

| Tattle Log #: 14 |
Log | When a Shady Koopa flips back up from its back, its Attack increases. Shady Koopas have a place of honor in the Koopa family tree because of this distinction. | ||||||
| Tattle | That's a Shady Koopa. It's yet another member of the Koopa family tree. Max HP is 8, Attack is 3, and Defense is 1. The difference between them and other Koopas? They can attack from their backs! And, when they flip back up, their Attack gets boosted and they go totally ape! ...Wow! That's pretty tricky! No wonder they're called Shady Koopas, huh? | |||||||
- Field tattle: "That's Shellshock. He seems to be totally on top of his game. For some reason, though, I think he's just a big softie. Maybe I'm thinking too much..."
