Koopa Troopa

Koopa Troopas are antagonists from the Super Mario series. One appeared in the fourth episode of Death Battle, Goomba VS Koopa, where he fought against fellow Super Mario enemy Goomba. They returned for the 190th episode, Bowser VS Eggman, where they, Bowser, and the rest of his army fought against Doctor Eggman and his Eggman Empire from the Sonic the Hedgehog series.
He also appeared in the 95th episode and Season 6 Finale of DBX, Goomba VS Koopa 2, where he once again fought against fellow Super Mario enemy Goomba.
==History==
The Koopa Troopas are the foot soldiers and main representatives of the notorious Koopa Troop, led by the villainous Koopa King, Bowser. They come in many different colors and variants and are commonly seen around the Mushroom Kingdom, whether it be serving the Koopa King, go-kart racing, or even assisting Mario on some of his adventures. The Koopas have aided their king on countless attempts at conquering the kingdom, and while they have yet to succeed, the Koopas' will is just as resilient as their shells; so willing, in fact, that they would bravely march off a cliff in their king's name.
