'''Ankoopas''' (also generically referred to by [[Prima Games|Prima]] as "'''Turtles'''"<ref>"''A giant Turtle blocks the passage to a cave to the right of the watering hole. (And, no, the [[Hammer]]s the boys receive won't do the trick.)''" - ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'' Prima's Official Strategy Guide. Page 58.</ref>) are pudgy, giant [[Koopa Troopa]]s found only in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''. They are cross-eyed and have oblong shells which extend up from their backs, behind their heads. Their name is a combination of the words "[[anchor]]" and "[[Koopa (species)|Koopa]]," with the former word referring to how they are hard to move.
Ankoopas block certain paths in the [[Beanbean Kingdom]], reciting the line, "''Derr... No matter what you hit me with, you can't knock me down. I think...''" when spoken to. One also appears in a house in [[Beanbean Castle Town]].
The road-blocking Ankoopas can only be moved with [[Mario]]'s [[Fire Tickle|Dash]] technique, which knocks them down briefly; they will move aside and express surprise at the Bros.' ability, and then allow the pair to progress.
In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'', they are replaced by [[Gargantua Koopa Troopa|Giant Koopa Troopa]]s.
