Koopa Paratroopas appear in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' and its [[Super Mario RPG (Nintendo Switch)|remake]]; in the former, they are named "Sky Troopas", while in the latter, they were renamed back to simply "Paratroopas". They appear in the levels [[Mushroom Way]], [[Bandit's Way]], and [[Booster Pass]]. In this game, all Paratroopas have red shells and do not lose their wings when hit. These shells give Paratroopas a high defense rating compared to other enemies fought early in the game. Additionally, Paratroopas use their shells for offense. To attack, they hide in their shells and then ram into their opponent. | Koopa Paratroopas appear in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' and its [[Super Mario RPG (Nintendo Switch)|remake]]; in the former, they are named "Sky Troopas", while in the latter, they were renamed back to simply "Paratroopas".

In Mushroom Way, some Paratroopas guard [[treasure chest|treasure box]]es while others actively pursue [[Mario]]. One Paratroopa even kidnaps [[Toad]]. In battle, Paratroopas either fight alone or in pairs. At Mushroom Way and in Booster Pass, Paratroopas also aid [[Spikey (Super Mario RPG)|Spikey]]s in battle if the Spikeys are attacked. Four Paratroopas can be fought in Bandit's Way while Mario chases [[Croco]] through the last area of the level. They fly high in the sky and do not actively pursue Mario, therefore he has to [[jump]] if he wants to fight them. After Croco is defeated, these Paratroopas disappear and do not return for the rest of the game. | In Mushroom Way, some Paratroopas guard [[treasure chest|treasure box]]es while others actively pursue [[Mario]].

One prominent Paratroopa featured in the game is [[Sergeant Flutter]], a reformed Koopa who leads a large squad of friendly Paratroopas.

These Paratroopas help out Mario in his quest for the [[Star Piece (Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars)|Star Pieces]] at the behest of [[Monstermama]], the leader of [[Monstro Town]]. These Paratroopas assist Mario in ascending the steep cliff located at the end of [[Land's End]], allowing him to reach [[Bean Valley]] and eventually [[Nimbus Land]]. Mario accomplishes this by jumping from Paratroopa to Paratroopa, each Paratroopa carrying Mario higher into the air and into closer proximity to the next Paratroopa. If Mario scales the cliff quickly by bypassing the normal sequence of Paratroopa hops, he is rewarded with prizes. | ||
The Paratroopa has a bulky relative called a [[Big Troopa]], which in turn are related to the [[Grand Troopa]]s. Paratroopas also have stronger relatives called [[Malakoopa]]s. These Paratroopas have a green shell instead of a red shell. Standard Koopa Troopas are absent from the game. | The Paratroopa has a bulky relative called a [[Big Troopa]], which in turn are related to the [[Grand Troopa]]s.
