Sir Swoop, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

Sir Swoop is a character in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door . He is a Swooper who fights at the Glitz Pit, as a member of Wings of Night. After a few rounds he will come into the Minor League room and Mario can talk to him. Sir Swoop enters the Glitz Pit shortly after King K vanishes. He gets the exact same introduction from Jolene as Mario did (even including button prompts, such as "Press A"); however, his instructions from Grubba are comical: to "do a triple flip and meow". Sir Swoop resides in the Minor League locker room for the rest of the chapter. After the Chapter has been completed, Sir Swoop will vanish because of King K returning to the roster. In the Switch remake, Sir Swoop appears during the Glitzville sequence when the Crystal Stars return to where they were found to get Mario's friends to cheer him on during the battle with the Shadow Queen.
