Red Shell |
A Green Shell is a green-colored Koopa Troopa Shell. They are worn by the most common Koopas and can also be weapons in the Mario Kart Series. When stomping a Green Koopa, it will or hide in its shell or will be kicked out its shell. In both ways, the Green Shell could be used anyway. If it is used in spinoffs or sidescrollers, it always bounces off. This can hurt enemies, but Mario and co. as well.
