Character Sheet: Diddy Kong (DK Miscellaneous)

DIDDY KONG

Let's kick off this final round of DK revisions. We have a few old ones to go over, mostly for thoroughness's sake, alongside four new additions to the roster. Let's see what we've got!

1. Donkey Kong (Revision)
2. Diddy Kong (Revision)
3. Dixie Kong (Revision)
4. King K. Rool (Revision)
5. Cranky Kong (Revision)
6. Funky Kong (Revision)
7. Wrinkly Kong (Revision)
8. Tiny Kong (Revision)
9. Lanky Kong (Revision)
10. Kritter (Revision)
11. Krusha (Revision)
12. Klump (Revision)
13. Timber
14. Kalypso
15. Wizpig
16. The Evil Kings

Diddy Kong should be short and sweet for the most part. He appears in both Diddy Kong Racing and Donkey Kong: Barrel Blast as a playable character, but is really just one among the many characters playing with the same mechanics, so he doesn't really offer much himself. He also appears in all three Konga games, just playing the bongos like everyone else. And he doesn't appear at all in Jungle Beat, which, not gonna lie, feels like it should be considered a cardinal sin for the DK series. Who leaves out Diddy Kong of all people?

Here's his moveset again:

Standard B: Peanut Popgun

Side B: Chimpy Charge

Up B: Rocketbarrel Pack

Down B: Banana

Final Smash: Rocketbarrel Barrage

Entrance: Pop out of a barrel

Taunts: Him rocking out to his boom box for sure, eating a banana, dancing like he does in the Konga games.

Thanks for reading! Next up, we'll cover his girlfriend Dixie Kong!
