If I remember correctly, those Electrokoopas from Super Mario Sunshine could only be defeated by sprying them with water after they throw their shells. Then, when the shells come back, they get electrocuted and they're defeated.

That's right, I was just trying to figure out how it would work without F.L.U.D.D.

if people make graphics for any of their requests... like this electro koopa, it would provide me with a lot more motivation to make it. i'd love to see some of the creativity that you guys have.

OK, here's some somewhat rushed concept art from me:



I tried to make it look like the one from Mario Sunshine, only standing on two legs like the other Koopas from SMW. The tuft of hair can easily go if it's too much work to code an extra row of tiles on top of the otherwise 16 x 16 shelless Koopa.

And Sparx, if you had a different idea, don't let me stop you from showing it.

Then, when the shells come back, they get electrocuted and they're defeated. Maybe if this custom sprite was made, it could instantly be destroyed if it walked into water. Maybe that could be the only way to beat them- make them fall in the water. Maybe then, the water would be full of electricity, making you take damage if you fall in it, but if any enemy falls in it besides Thwomps, Thwimps, Dry Bones, Bony Beetles, Fishbones, and those other non-living enemies in castles besides Mecha-Koopas would instantly be destroyed. That's probably a long shot though, but funny nonetheless.

Yeah, but they could also be killed by jumping on them when their shells were off
So, basically, tosses shell at mario to a certain distance, then returns. You could use a graphics change for the shell (electricity running around it), it could be invincible with a shell on, but vulnerable when it's off. It should kill water based enemies like fish only (besides Mario). Instantly dies in water (custom block water), and as an extra bonus, invulnerable to fire

I recently thought of this, and here's the idea:
I call it an "Ice Koopa". What it does is shoots ice at you, and if the ice touches you, you get frozen. You could be stuck in the position you were in, and there could be custom graphics over Mario that looks like a big chunk of ice, making it look like he's actually frozen in the ice. At this time, you cannot move, and technically, you're taking damage. If you get hit, a "counter" will increase by 1, and it starts at 1. You take the appropriate amount of damage for each number. (In other words, if the number is 1, you take damage once. If you're not Small Mario, and the counter is 2, you lose a life, since you take damage twice, meaning you take damage as Big/Fire/Cape Mario, then you take damage again as Small Mario, though it happens all at once, meaning once you're free, you lose a life.) However, after a while, you escape the ice, and the damage is dealt. However, you can force the ice to break sooner if you keep trying to move or jump. Just press any button to try to get free. It's fun, and it's great for cold areas! The palette would be once that's Light Blue, like Normal Palette 4.

Edit: Oh yeah, it also looks the same as a Normal Koopa, only different tile locations, so you can have them look different. Plus, if you stomp on it to get it out of its shell, it can still fire ice at you. If you use your Cape's Spin ability, you can bat the ice back at the Koopa, which makes it frozen. At that point, it starts to "melt". (It acts like the Throw Block sprite, only with different tiles, and with Graphics like the Ice Blocks in SMB3.) You can pick it up and throw it too.
