From the Super Mario Wiki, the Mario encyclopedia

KP Paratroopa
Sprite fromPaper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (Nintendo Switch)
First appearance	Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (2004)
Latest appearance	Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (Nintendo Switch) (2024)
Variant of	Koopa Paratroopa KP Koopa

OneKP Paratroopa appears inPaper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door and itsremake as a member of theGlitz Pit teamThe KP Koopas. Like otherKoopa Paratroopas, it is a winged variation of aKP Koopa. The Tattle Log states that the KP Paratroopa dyed its shell yellow but no similar reference to dying shells is made in the KP Koopa's log. It shares the same stats and abilities as a normal Paratroopa despite being a different color.

IfGoombella uses herTattle ability on the KP Paratroopa after it has been grounded, she will give the same information for when it was winged; this also happens with all other types of Paratroopas,Parabuzzies, andSpiky Parabuzzies.

Tattle Log #: 13	Log	A Koopa Troopa who's dyed its shell. Otherwise, it's the same as any other Paratroopa, which means one stomp and it loses its wings.
Tattle Log #: 13	Tattle	That's a KP Paratroopa. It's a Koopa Paratroopa of a different color. Max HP is 4, Attack is 2, and Defense is 1. Its attacks are the same as your average, garden-variety Koopa Paratroopa. So, just do the same thing as always: stomp on it, flip it, and drop its Defense to 0. My Headbonk is pretty effective against it, too. Come on! Let's get him!
