In ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', Lemmy received an airship for the invasion of the [[Mushroom World]], which he used to attack the Iced Land and steal their king's magic wand. He used it to ransform the king into a creature (a seal in the original version and a [[Monty Mole]] in the advanced remakes). In battle, he was unique in that he battled with a giant circus ball that he balanced himself upon and occasionally tossed at [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]]. However, he was still defeated in battle and forced to surrender the wand. Additionally, among the special bonus levels available through the [[e-Reader]] for the [[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3|the GBA remake]], one of them (which was only made available in Japan) was a harder alternate version of Lemmy's air ship, featuring the same boss fight against Lemmy.

In ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', Lemmy used an [[airship]] to invade the [[Mushroom World]] and conquered the Iced Land, which was the game's sixth world. He stole the king's magic wand and used it to transform the king into a creature (a seal in the original version and a [[Monty Mole]] in the advanced remakes). In battle, he was unique in that he battled with a giant circus ball that he balanced himself upon and occasionally tossed at [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]]. He was ultimately defeated and forced to surrender the wand. He made an additional appearance in Armored Airship, one of the special bonus levels that were made available through the [[e-Reader]] for the [[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3|the GBA remake]] and was a Japan exclusive in the original release. The level was a harder alternate version of Lemmy's air ship level and ended with the same boss fight against Lemmy.

Lemmy was then part of the invasion of Dinosaur Land in ''[[Super Mario World]]'', where he was the third boss in charge of the [[Vanilla Dome]], holding a friend of [[Yoshi]]'s captive. In this game, he would pop out of one of a series of Warp Pipes in a room at random along with a decoy, while a fireball bounced around the room. Mario or Luigi had to stomp on the real Lemmy three times to knock him through the pipe and into the lava below, defeating him. Afterwards, when Bowser stole the twelve magic crystals of [[Jewelry Land]] during ''[[Yoshi's Safari]]'', Lemmy was put in charge of the Red Crystal at the Grassland and acted as the game's first boss. Lemmy fought Mario and Yoshi within a suit of mechanical armor. After the machine was destroyed, Lemmy tried hiding behind a shield, but he still got beaten.  
  
Lemmy was later part of the invasion of Dinosaur Land in ''[[Super Mario World]]'' and held one of [[Yoshi]]'s friends captive. He was the third boss who could be faced and inhabited a castle in the [[Vanilla Dome]]. In this appearance, he would pop out of one of a series of Warp Pipes in a room at random along at the same time as a decoy, while a fireball bounced around the room. Mario or Luigi had to stomp on the real Lemmy three times to knock him through the pipe and into the lava below in order to defeat him. Afterwards, when Bowser stole the twelve magic crystals of [[Jewelry Land]] during ''[[Yoshi's Safari]]'', Lemmy was put in charge of the Red Crystal at the Grassland and acted as the game's first boss. Lemmy fought Mario and Yoshi while riding a mech suit with a center that resembled the [[Koopa Clown Car]]. After the machine was destroyed, Lemmy tried hiding behind a shield, but he was still defeated.

After a long absence, the Koopalings returned when [[Cackletta|Bowletta]] called them into action to eliminate the Mario Brothers in ''[[Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''. Lemmy is the third Koopaling to battle the brothers, and this time he unveiled a new trick, as he created idential dopplegangers of himself (which are actually [[Goomba]]s in disguise). Despite this, he lost once again.
  
==Modern Appearances==
+
In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', Lemmy was redesigned with an orange shell and a ponytail. The collective Koopalings kidnapped Peach on her birthday and escaped for their home in an airship. Along the way, [[Bowser Jr.]] dropped the Koopalings off at fortresses to slow down Mario and co., with Lemmy being left at the World 3 fortress. When Mario arrived, Lemmy showed off his acrobatics on his circus ball before attacking with a new magic wand that created duplicates of the ball. Lemmy was defeated, but he escaped to the World 3 castle for a rematch. This time he received help from [[Kamek]], who enchanted his ball to make it gigantic. Lemmy lost again and headed home on foot along with the other Koopalings, where they found a fallen Bowser. They tried to help him up, only to have Bowser's Castle fall on top of them.
  
After a long absence, the Koopalings returned when [[Cackletta|Bowletta]] called them into action to eliminate the Mario Brothers in ''[[Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''. Lemmy was the third Koopaling to battle the brothers, and he unveiled a new trick, as he created identical doppelgangers of himself. The clones were just [[Goomba]]s in disguise in the original version, but in [[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions|the 3DS remake]], they were copies created solely from magic.
+
Lemmy also appeared in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', where the Koopalings worked together to kidnap Princess Peach for Bowser. This time, Lemmy was an optional boss who was faced in the second of two hidden worlds, known as World Flower (which can be accessed from World Three or World Mushroom). Lemmy used the same tactics as he did in the fortress in battle in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' (creating duplicates of his ball to bounce around), now on a conveyor belt. He was defeated once more, opening the route to World 5. The Koopalings turned up again at Bowser's castle in World 6, where they attempted to petrify Mario with a light emitted by the Koopa Clown Car and also used their magic to make Bowser gigantic after his first defeat. After the giant Bowser was defeated, the Koopalings attempted to tow him away with the Clown Car, only to accidentally crash it. The Koopalings later made an appearance in World Star's castle, where they once more attempted to petrify Mario and made Dry Bowser grow.

He also appeared in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'' as the game's first boss, being faced in the Acorn Plains. He still rode his circus ball, but instead of a magic wand he threw bombs of varying sizes in battle. He was defeated once again.
  
Lemmy also appeared in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', where the Koopalings worked together to kidnap Princess Peach for Bowser. In that game, Lemmy was an optional boss who was faced in the second of two hidden worlds, known as World Flower (which can be accessed from World Three or World Mushroom). In that battle, he once again created duplicates of his ball to bounce around, but this battle was staged on a conveyor belt instead. He was defeated once more, opening the route to World 5.  The Koopalings turned up again at Bowser's castle in World 6, where they attempted to petrify Mario with a light emitted by the Koopa Clown Car and also used their magic to make Bowser gigantic after his first defeat. After the giant Bowser was defeated, the Koopalings attempted to tow him away with the Clown Car, only to accidentally crash it. The Koopalings later made an appearance in World Star's castle, where they once more attempted to petrify Mario and made Dry Bowser grow.

The Koopalings made their first appearance in the ''Mario'' sports games when they were included in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' as unlockable racers and then in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' as default racers.
 
 
In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', the Koopalings each had their own personalized airships that featured an image of the corresponding Koopa's head as the airship's figurehead. They assisted Bowser's airship in conquering Princess Peach's Castle and then scattered to the game's different worlds. Lemmy was the boss of the first world, Acorn Plains. To reach his airship and battle him, Mario and/or his friends would have to fire themselves out of a cannon found at the end of his castle level (Lemmy's Swingback Castle in the original version or Lemmy's Lights-Out Castle in ''New Super Luigi U''). He still rode his circus ball in battle, but this time he attacked by throwing bombs of increasing size. After being defeated, his airship retreated. At the end of the game, the Koopalings attempted to escape with Bowser Jr. and a giant Bowser in Bowser's hastily-repaired airship, only for it to crash due to Bowser's giant size. Their escape ultimately ended up consisting of dangling Junior's [[Junior Clown Copter]] in a chain as it retreated, with Lemmy clinging to Bowser's tail.
 
 
 
The Koopalings were also added to ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'' in April 2020 and were available as enemies for stages made in any style, except for the ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' style. In ''[[Dr. Mario World]]'', a doctor version of Lemmy was made available as a playable character who could be unlocked through the game's Staffing feature starting in July 2020.

The Koopalings made their first appearance in the ''Mario'' sports games when they were included in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' as unlockable racers and then in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' as default racers. In ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', Lemmy was potentially available in the beta version of the game and was made available for the final version of the game in October 2019. He had to be unlocked at random through the game's gacha feature or could occasionally show up for sale at the shop (which uses coins earned in-game).
 
 
 
A [[Mii]] costume of Lemmy has also been available in each game of the ''Mario & Sonic'' series starting with ''[[Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games]]''.
