Koopatrol

Paper Mario

The Koopatrols are recurring enemies in the Mario franchise and introduced in the Paper Mario series. They first appear in Paper Mario. Koopatrols are commanded by Bowser to guard his castle and Princess Peach's Castle. They are capable of summoning other fellow Koopatrols to assist them during battle.

Koopatrols are only fought in Bowser's Castle. Some of them are needed to be defeated since they may hold important items such as keys. In battle, the Koopatrols attack mainly by shell slamming into Mario. They can also power themselves up and deal more damage on the next turn. Using Lady Bow's Outta Sight move is recommended in order to avoid this. Mario must be careful when encountering a Koopatrol as they attempt to get a First Strike against him.

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

Koopatrols are seen as regular enemies of Rogueport Sewers after Chapter 5 has been completed along with Hammer Bros. and Magikoopas. The Koopatrols acts the very same as they did in the previous game. The Koopinator participates in the Glitz Pit.

Super Paper Mario

Koopatrol Card

Koopatrol make their third appearance. Though they did serve Bowser in the beginning, for the majority of the game, they served Count Bleck after being hypnotized by Nastasia. Koopatrols behave the same as they did in the last games, but due to Super Paper Mario not having a battle system anymore, Koopatrols can no longer use their charged attacks or call other Koopatrols to help. There are stronger versions of Koopatrols known as Dark Koopatrols. Koopatrols are mainly encountered in Castle Bleck.

"This is a Koopatrol. They're elite Koopa soldiers. These are the highest-ranked guards of Bowser's Castle. Max HP: 8, Attack Power: 4, Defense Power: 3 In case you hadn't noticed, they're fitted with spikes. Don't jump on 'em. When their HP drops low, they'll charge up power for one last-ditch attack. The power of this desperate attack is 10. They've also been known to call in reinforcements when they're in trouble. Don't underestimate these nasty Koopas, Mario."
