'''Knot-Wing the Koopa''' is an enlarged [[Koopa Paratroopa]] boss in ''[[Yoshi's Woolly World]]''. He serves as the mid-boss of [[World 2 (Yoshi's Woolly World)|World 2]]. He also reappears in [[World 4 (Yoshi's Woolly World)|World 4]] and [[World 6 (Yoshi's Woolly World)|World 6]]. In all three battles, his primary attacks are [[Ground Pound]]ing and dashing inside his shell. Knot-Wing the Koopa may be a winged homage to [[Hookbill the Koopa]], a boss from ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]''. Both Knot-Wing and Hookbill are red [[Koopa Troopa]]s that are enlarged by Kamek, with their shells being particularly larger than the rest of their respective bodies. They share a similar naming scheme in both English and Japanese as well.

Knot-Wing the Koopa is an enlarged Koopa Paratroopa boss in Yoshi's Woolly World. He serves as the mid-boss of World 2. He also reappears in World 4 and World 6. In all three battles, his primary attacks are Ground Pounding and dashing inside his shell. Knot-Wing the Koopa may be a winged homage to Hookbill the Koopa, a boss from Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island. Both Knot-Wing and Hookbill are red Koopa Troopas that are enlarged by Kamek, with their shells being particularly larger than the rest of their respective bodies. They share a similar naming scheme in both English and Japanese as well.

Battles[edit]

Knot-Wing the Koopa's Fort (Level 2-4)[edit]

In World 2, Yoshi can defeat Knot-Wing by licking the knot on his neck at the right time when he is on the ground, while he is performing his Ground Pound attacks.

“You're getting tired now, aren't you? EEEEEEEEK! How about you take a quick shower and COOL OFF?!”
—Kamek, Yoshi's Woolly World

In World 4, Yoshi must allow Knot-Wing to slam into a broken part of the bridge, which accidentally causes him to touch the spikes at the bottom of the water and flip over to reveal his weak spot.

Knot-Wing the Koopa's Sky Fort (Level 6-4)[edit]

“Think I'm letting you get past here? Well, think again! My friend here should help you get your head out of the clouds! Hee hee hee!”
—Kamek, Yoshi's Woolly World

In World 6, Knot-Wing can only be defeated when the Bill Blaster on his back is hit with a yarn ball thrown by Yoshi instead of untying a knot on his neck. Knot-Wing's wings can be lost, though he regains them, unlike Koopa Paratroopas.
