To be fair, a Paragoomba will revert to a normal Goomba after clipping it's wings, and they originated in a game where a flying option was given as a power-up.

They are one of the few enemies who can utilise a few of the power-ups in the series as well, and depending on how you interpet the boss in NSMBDS, can apparently carry the items unseen and transform on a dime.
