Template:Catch Card The Soopa Striker is a Koopa Troopa sub-species that appeared in Super Paper Mario. These enemies are largely soccer-themed: They wear white soccer uniforms and have black-and-white-checkered shells, reminiscent of a soccer ball. They attack by placing a shell onto the ground and then kicking it at their opponents. Soopa Strikers are the second most powerful relatives of the Koopa Striker (excluding the Dark Striker, which is only found in the Flopside Pit of 100 Trials), so as such, they were used by Count Bleck to protect his castle. They can also be found in the 69th room of the Flipside Pit of 100 Trials.
