Paper Mario

"I'm normally a letter-perfect postman, but I'm having a bit of trouble with a lost letter."
—Parakarry

Parakarry is a friendly mail-delivering Koopa Paratroopa who joins Mario as a battle partner in Paper Mario.

In the Paper Mario series[]

Paper Mario[]

He is one of the few employees of the Mushroom Kingdom mail service. He makes short appearances at the beginning of Paper Mario delivering an invitation to Mario. Parakarry can also be seen early in the game, at Toad Town's post office. Even though he is one of few Mushroom Kingdom mail carriers, he is rather careless and clumsy, and has dropped a large amount of letters around the world. In fact, he joins Mario's party on Mt. Rugged when Mario finds three letters he has lost. He has also noted as being rather slow and inefficient. However, he is well-meaning, helpful and courteous.

Parakarry specializes in attacking air-borne enemies. He can also carry Mario over short gaps and can deliver mail by talking to a recipient. A vehicular obstacle in Mario Kart: Double Dash!! is named the Parakarry Mail Truck. His boss, an elderly Paratroopa named the Postmaster, described as stubborn, serious and hardheaded, appears in the Post Office, allowing Mario to read mail. The Postmaster is rumored to have complained privately about Parakarry, but said it with a smile on his face.

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door[]

Parakarry makes a cameo at the start, where he delivers a letter to Mario from Princess Peach.
