Green Shell



Green Shells are green Koopa Troopa shells that appear as items in the Mario series and notably in the Mario Kart series. In the Mario Kart series, their purpose is to travel in a straight line and bounce off walls. A set of three Green Shells is called Triple Green Shells. Triple Green Shells will rotate around the user's kart once used. This will protect a racer from Bananas, which will be destroyed along with a shell when collided together. This may also protect a racer from shells, but luck is needed when there is less than three shells, as with one or two shells, other shells might hit the open spot, which is apparently the weakness for a racer. If a racer using Triple Green Shells manages to touch another opponent, the opponent will be hit by the shell.
