'''Paratroopas''' (also known as '''Koopa Paratroopas''', '''Koopa Parakoopas''', '''Sky Troopas''' in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'', or simply '''ParaKoopas'''), are [[Koopa Troopa]]s with wings. They lose their wings when they are attacked in air, such as getting stomped or hurt by fireballs. They traditionally come in two varieties: Red Koopa Paratroopas usually fly up and down or side to side in a set path, while green Koopa Paratroopas often bounce in the player's general direction. Red Koopa Paratroopas first appear in World 1-3 of ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', while the green ones first appear in World 2-1 of the same game. However, some Paratroopas hover left and right, but in ''Super Mario Bros.'', World 7-2 has left/right Paratroopas. Their name comes from "paratrooper", a term used in the military to describe soldiers who parachute down to attack.
