The Troopea's appearance is similar to the Koopa Troopa, but a green sprout sits on their head and they have blue shells. In the original game, they are quadruple, but in the remake, they are bipedal.
They also have stronger variants called Elite Troopea, Paratroopea, and Scaratroopea. Their undead variant may be the beanish Dry Bones, although this is unlikely since those foes are quadrupeds, even in the remake.
In Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga
Troopeas debuted in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga as an enemy in Beanbean Outskirts.
Battle
In battle, Troopeas only have two attacks, which is trying to ram into one of the brothers. However, Troopeas can also heal their allies in combat by launching a water droplet onto them. Troopeas recover their allies or themselves with a water droplet. They can dive under the Bros.. If the target does not jump, the target will deal damage.
In Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser
Troopeas appear as enemies in the side story of the remake, Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser. They first appear in Turnip Tantrum. They fight as melee troopers, and their Special Skill is Rock Solid.
Etymology
Troopea is a combination of the words Troopa and pea, hence being the Beanbean Kingdom equivalent of a Koopa Troopa.
