'''Shell Mario''' (also known as '''Koopa Mario'''<ref>[http://mario.nintendo.com/ New Super Mario Bros. official website]</ref>) is a form of [[Mario]] that Mario can become in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' by touching a [[Blue Shell]]. It allows him to use [[Frog Suit]]-like control while swimming, and gives him the [[Hammer Suit]]-like ability to dodge the attacks of enemies when he crouches, tucking into it. If he starts running for a short time or crouches while on a downward hill he will hide in the shell and the shell will slide through the world. This maneuver is called a [[Shell Dash]]. As long as he keeps ducking, he'll be safely protected from most enemies. However, it won't protect him from Bob-omb explosions, spike balls, hammers thrown by Hammer Bros. or Sledge Bros., boomerangs from the Boomerang Bros., and the raining debris from World 8-8. Shell Mario also makes it so that Mario cannot triple jump, and double jump is extremely hard to do. Shell Mario is extremely powerful in this form as he is able to defeat a [[Thwomp]] while doing the Shell Dash. | '''Shell Mario''' (also known as '''Koopa Mario'''<ref>[http://mario.nintendo.com/ New Super Mario Bros. official website]</ref>) is a form of [[Mario]] that Mario can become in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' by touching a [[Blue Shell]].
