Shell Slam is an attack thatKoops can use inPaper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door upon reaching Ultra Rank. This move costs 6FP. Shell Slam is essentially a more powerful version ofPower Shell, doing up to 6 damage instead of 5, and piercingdefense.

To successfully execute this move, the player must rapidly tilt theControl Stick left to fill a gauge. Depending on how far the gauge is filled, the damage can be anywhere from 0 to 6. This move also has two opportunities for aStylish move. The first Stylish happens when Koops retreats to his initial position after performing the attack, which will make him do a breakdance. Assuming the first Stylish was performed, after Koops does two spins on his head, the player can pressA Button again to do a second Stylish where Koops will point upwards with one hand.[1]
