Various unnamed Magikoopas appearing in the ''Super Mario'' franchise are presumed to be Kamek, often due to the parallels between their relationship with Bowser or their position in the Koopa Troop. This relates to confusion with the Japanese games where the character and species are considered a single interchangeable subject in all media. Many appearances of individual Magikoopas, however, specifically call back to Kamek's behavior in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' in having him power up bosses, likely making these the same individual.
