'''Troopeas''' are [[Koopa Troopa|Koopas]] with sprouts on their heads in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' and are only found in the [[Beanbean Kingdom]]. They have dark blue shells and are found mainly in SE Beanbean, near [[Woohoo Hooniversity]]. Like most creatures native to Beanbean, they are implied to be legume-based life forms. Troopeas are rather basic enemies, although they can create small water droplets that restore [[HP]] in their allies. If [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] manages to jump on a Troopea's shell while countering his ramming attack, the shell will be shot toward the other enemies on the battlefield and will damage them.

Troopeas have violet shells and sprouts sticking out of their heads; they appear as quadrupeds in the original game, but in the remake they are bipedal and wear shoes, more akin to modern Koopa Troopas.

Troopeas only attack by trying to ram [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]].

The Bros. must continue jumping on the shell to keep the attack going, which only stops once they miss, the shell hits one of them, or they run out of enemies that can be hit.

*When [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] jump to counterattack on these creatures, the result is much like the [[Green Shell]] item from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'' and ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]''.
Troopeas can also create small water droplets that restore [[Heart Point|HP]] to one of their allies or themselves, an ability shared by all of their variants in some form. They are extremely resistant to all forms of attacks except jumping; they duck into their shell if regular non-jump attacks are used, and any such attacks only deal 1 damage per hit.
 
In ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions'', Troopeas appear as enemies in ''Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser''. They are first encountered in the level [[Turnip Tantrum]]. They are Melee troopers, and attack by charging into opponents. Their Special Skill, Rock Solid, allows them to enter their shells and raise their defense.

Troopeas are enemies that appear in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga and its remake, Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions. They are the Beanbean Kingdom counterpart to Koopa Troopas. Their name is a portmanteau of "Troopa" and "pea", the latter of which is a legume like a bean.

Troopeas have violet shells and sprouts sticking out of their heads; they appear as quadrupeds in the original game, but in the remake they are bipedal and wear shoes, more akin to modern Koopa Troopas. Troopeas are found mainly in the south-eastern area outside Beanbean Castle Town, near Woohoo Hooniversity, and are often accompanied by Parabeanies. A winged variant of Troopeas called Paratroopeas can be found in some of the other areas outside Beanbean Castle Town, and later in the game, stronger red-shelled versions called Elite Troopeas appear in Gwarhar Lagoon.

Battle[edit]

Troopeas only attack by trying to ram Mario or Luigi. This can be countered by jumping; if the Bros. stomp on them this way, they can use the Troopea's shell to damage other enemies, much like the Green Shell Bros. Item/Special Attack in later Mario & Luigi games. The Bros. must continue jumping on the shell to keep the attack going, which only stops once they miss, the shell hits one of them, or they run out of enemies that can be hit.

Troopeas can also create small water droplets that restore HP to one of their allies or themselves, an ability shared by all of their variants in some form. They are extremely resistant to all forms of attacks except jumping; they duck into their shell if regular non-jump attacks are used, and any such attacks only deal 1 damage per hit.

In Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions, Troopeas appear as enemies in Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser. They are first encountered in the level Turnip Tantrum. They are Melee troopers, and attack by charging into opponents. Their Special Skill, Rock Solid, allows them to enter their shells and raise their defense.
