The first appearance of the seven Koopalings was in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' where they are the main bosses of the first seven worlds of the game. Here, the Koopalings were ordered by Bowser to use their [[airship]]s and armies to conquer the various lands of the [[Mushroom World]]. Each Koopaling, after attacking a kingdom, stole the ruler's [[magic wand]] and transformed that ruler into an animal of some kind (or in the case of [[Pipe Land|Pipe Land's]] ruler in the NES version, a plant).<ref>Depending on the version of ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', the Koopalings will transform the respective rulers into a dog, a spider/silkworm, a kappa, a tyrannosaur, a vulture, a seal, or a [[Fire Piranha Plant]] (NES version) or a [[Cobrat]], [[Hoopster]], a purple [[Dino Rhino]], a [[Donkey Kong Jr.]] look-alike, an [[Albatoss]], a [[Monty Mole]], and a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] (SNES and GBA remakes).</ref> | The first appearance of the seven Koopalings was in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' where they are the main bosses of the first seven worlds of the game.

[[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] battle a Koopaling every time they travel through a heavily-guarded airship. The battle against the Koopalings consists mostly of dodging the Koopalings' leaps and magical blasts from their stolen wand. It takes three stomps on the head or nine fireballs in order to defeat a Koopaling. Unlike Bowser, they are immune to hammers. Once defeated, that Koopaling retreats into their shell, flies away and drops their magic wand. After Mario or Luigi picks it up, the airship vanishes and that world's king is restored. | [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] battle a Koopaling every time they travel through a heavily-guarded airship.
