The Red Shell | [[File:red shell n64.gif||thumb|The Red Shell avoiding falling in ''Smash 64''.]] | ||
The Red Shell debuted as a throwing item in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' | |||
When used, instead of sliding in the same direction it was thrown in after coming into contact with the floor like the [[Green Shell]], the Red Shell will start sliding from left to right and targeting the closest fighter, even the fighter who threw it. Unlike the Green Shell, the Red Shell will not slide off any platform it is thrown upon, instead bouncing back as soon as it reaches an edge. | |||
When stationary, the Red Shell will activate when jumped on or after coming in contact with a [[hitbox]]. Like the Green Shell, a sliding Red Shell will halt all movement upon being jumped on. It does moderate set [[knockback]] and therefore cannot KO opponents at any percentage except lower handicapped opponents. When [[reflect]]ed, its [[damage]] output is increased, but its knockback is not. A reflected Red Shell will also have much more [[hitlag]] when it hits a player. | When stationary, the Red Shell will activate when jumped on or after coming in contact with a [[hitbox]].

The Red Shell does not appear in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', but Red Koopa Shells appear in the [[Subspace Emissary]]; however, when used, they function similarly to the Green Shell. This is also applied to the [[Smash Run]] in {{for3ds}} when the player's fighter defeats a red Koopa Troopa. | The Red Shell does not appear in ''[[Super Smash Bros.

Dealing enough damage by attacking them or jumping on them forces them to retreat into their shells. If the shell is left alone or carried for too long, then the Koopa Troopas will emerge out of their shells. | ||
In ''Melee'' Red Koopa Troopa shells can be grabbed, carried around, and thrown like the [[Green Shell]] item to KO other enemies or damage opponents; however, it can deal [[fire]] damage and stronger damage and knockback upon contact. | In ''Melee'' Red Koopa Troopa shells can be grabbed, carried around, and thrown like the [[Green Shell]] item to KO other enemies or damage opponents; however, it can deal [[fire]] damage and stronger damage and knockback upon contact. | ||
