'''Bubbler''' is a large red octopus and the third boss of ''[[Diddy Kong Racing]]'' and [[Diddy Kong Racing DS|its Nintendo DS remake]]. He has yellow eyes with green irises and black pupils.

Prior to the game's events, Bubbler was mind-controlled by [[Wizpig]] and entrusted with a portion of [[Wizpig amulet|his amulet]], so Bubbler is not inherently a villain.
Prior to the game's events, Bubbler was brainwashed by [[Wizpig]] and entrusted with a portion of [[Wizpig amulet|his amulet]], so Bubbler is not inherently a villain.


During the game's events, Bubbler is only allows the player to race him in [[Bubbler Challenge|his own course]] in Sherbet Island after they win in every race course of said world. During the race, Bubbler drops aquatic mines to trip his opponent. Bubbler can be attacked by the player shooting missiles at him from red [[Weapon Balloon]]s. After the player wins, Bubbler challenges them to complete every [[Silver Coin]] challenge of Sherbet Island before rematching him. The second race is more challenging, since Bubbler now moves faster and drops bubbles that temporarily encapsulate the player. When Bubbler loses again, he is freed from Wizpig's control and gives the player the piece of the Wizpig amulet he was guarding. Bubbler is the only character in the game not to appear in the cinematic ending, though he is present in the remake.
