'''KP Koopas''' are [[Koopa Troopa]]s who have dyed their shells gold. Only two KP Koopas are ever encountered; they and a single [[KP Paratroopa]] are all members of the [[Glitz Pit]] fighting team, the [[KP Koopas]]. It is explicitly stated that KP Koopas have the same abilities as normal Koopa Troopas, and merely differ in coloration.


Their appearance in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' is that of yellow-shelled Koopas, however naturally [[Yellow Shell|yellow-shelled]] Koopas appeared in the earlier title, ''[[Super Mario World]]''. Therefore, the fact that KP Koopas were lauded for their unusual shell-color indicates they were actually golden shells, and just appeared yellow due to graphical limitations (the [[Gold Star]] appearing in the same game also had yellow sprites). Also, like the Gold Star, KP Koopas are called "'''Gold''' Koopas" in French, whereas they were never referred to as having yellow shells in any version of ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''.
'''KP Koopas''' are [[Koopa Troopa]]s that appear in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' and its [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (Nintendo Switch)|remake]].  Unlike most Koopas, their shells are yellow, a distinction shared with similar looking Koopa Troopas that appear in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. Two KP Koopas, one of which is [[King K]], and one [[KP Paratroopa]] are members of the [[Glitz Pit]] team [[The KP Koopas]]; these are the only two KP Koopas in the game. They share the same abilities as regular Koopa Troopas, differing only in the coloration of their shell.
