'''Candy Kong''' is a character from the [[Donkey Kong (franchise)|''Donkey Kong'' franchise]] and the girlfriend of [[Donkey Kong]]. She first appeared in ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'', as the only female member of the Kongs. She is one of two recurring Kong characters who have not had a playable appearance, the other being [[Swanky Kong]]. | |||
In most of her appearances, Candy hosts minigames for the [[Kong]]s to play, although she ran her own store in one of the games. She has also appeared in comics and in the [[Donkey Kong Country (television series)|''Donkey Kong Country'' cartoon]]. An action figure of Candy was also released in Japan. | |||

In ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'', Candy manages the [[Candy's Save Point]] where she allows the player to save their game progress. Her Save Point appears in every world, and she also appears in the ending's Cast of Characters. The instruction booklet calls Candy Kong the "banana of Donkey Kong's eye" and mentions that everyone assumes they will marry one day, although it is Candy's opinion that he is not ready to settle down yet | In ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'', Candy manages the [[Candy's Save Point]] where she allows the player to save their game progress.

In the [[Game Boy Color]] and [[Game Boy Advance]] remakes, Candy no longer operates a Save Point, because the game progress can be saved from the world map. In the Game Boy Color version, Candy hosted [[Candy's Challenge]], where the active Kong must complete a challenge for a Banana Coin. Her establishment was changed again in the Game Boy Advance remake, to [[Candy's Dance Studio]], where she hosts a ''{{wp|Dance Dance Revolution}}''-type minigame in each world. | In the [[Game Boy Color]] and [[Game Boy Advance]] remakes, Candy no longer operates a Save Point, because the game progress can be saved from the world map.

[[File:CandyKong642.png|thumb|right|Candy's appearance in ''Donkey Kong 64'']] | |||
Candy reappears in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'', where she runs [[Candy's Music Shop]], which is found in every area except [[Jungle Japes]], [[Fungi Forest]] and [[Hideout Helm]]. Here, Candy sells the Kongs powerful musical instruments which can defeat foes and cause certain events to occur if used on a [[Music Pad]]. Candy also gives the Kongs an extra watermelon on two occasions, increasing the amount of damage the Kongs can sustain. A picture of Candy Kong also appears behind the hammock in [[DK's Tree House]]. | |||
In the ending after [[Chunky Kong]] defeats King K. Rool, Candy appears and distracts King K. Rool with her beauty, which is surprising considering that K. Rool hates the Kongs. While she does this, [[Funky Kong]] appears from behind and shoots him with a gun loaded with a big shoe, which sends him to where [[K. Lumsy]] is located. She also appears in the two endings where she is seen riding K. Lumsy, alongside all the Kongs, and in the second one she is seen sitting outside of Donkey Kong's house. In the secret ending, she appears three times. The first time she is seen, she gasps and then laughs, and the second time she appears she only laughs. The third time she appears, she is seen posing with [[Tiny Kong]] and the [[Mermaid]], as two [[Kritter]]s are watching them; the Candy's Music Shop theme plays during this segment. | |||

Candy | Candy makes a cameo appearance in the Game Boy Advance remake of ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' as [[Swanky Kong|Swanky]]'s assistant at [[Swanky's Bonus Bonanza]]. She does not affect the gameplay and simply points out the option that [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] and [[Dixie Kong]] walk to. She is later shown in [[Cranky's Hut]] during the ending "Cast of Characters" with the rest of the [[Kong Family]]. She is wearing a flower in her hair and a dress, which is purple at Swanky's Bonus Bonanza but white during the end credits. | ||

In the minigame, she appears in the water along some other Kongs, and [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy Kong]] have to protect her and the other Kongs from being taken away by the [[Kremling]]s with the help of their boat. | ||

Like in the game of the same name, she was found at her Save Point, where Donkey and Diddy Kong decided to tell her about their journey. Candy, instead of letting Donkey and Diddy Kong "save" their progress, provides them with [[Squawks the Parrot|Squawks]] in order to make their journey easier. She is also briefly seen at the end of the comic "[[Donkey Kong in: Banana Day 24]]" from the same magazine, celebrating together with the other Kongs. | ||

In the [[Donkey Kong Country (show)|''Donkey Kong Country'' cartoon]], Candy had been drastically changed from her in-game appearances, more so than any other character. On the show, Candy had a completely different personality with a particularly short temper. She appeared to be the sole employee at [[Bluster Barrelworks]], where she seemed to be the quality inspector. Candy and [[Donkey Kong]] were also actively dating in the cartoons, much to the annoyance of her boss, [[Bluster Kong]], who wanted Candy all to himself. | |||
Candy has a robotic clone named [[Candy Clone]], who was created by [[King K. Rool]], and appeared in a few episodes. | |||

====''Super Smash Bros. for 3DS'' / ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U''==== | |||
Candy also has a trophy in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]''. The trophy description mentions that Funky Kong has a crush on her as well as Donkey Kong, something which is not mentioned in any of the other games. | |||
====''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''==== | |||
Candy Kong also makes an appearance in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' as an Advanced-class support [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]], reusing her ''DK: Jungle Climber'' artwork. Her spirit battle uses a red palette swap of [[Bayonetta]] equipped with a [[Banana Gun]] on [[Kongo Falls]], with her spirit offering increased stats at critical health. In [[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate#Adventure|World of Light]], the spirit is located in the [[smashwiki:DK Island (World of Light)|DK Island]] sub-world of [[smashwiki:The Light Realm|The Light Realm]], specifically in the spot that represents Candy's Save Point on the [[Kongo Jungle]] map in ''Donkey Kong Country''. | |||

Candy Kong was apparently intended to be a playable character in later builds of the canceled spin-off game ''[[Diddy Kong Pilot (2001)|Diddy Kong Pilot]]'', and can be seen in some of the early screenshots from the game. She appeared to be replacing "Redneck Kong", as her placement in the character selection is where Redneck originally was, according to [[Media:DKP Character Select E3 2001.png|an E3 2001 screenshot]]. She also appeared on the main menu, in the "Dog Fights" animated icon, where it could be seen she drove a pink and white plane with a windshield. | |||

In ''Donkey Kong 64'', Candy had the same physical features as her future appearances, apart from the exposed neck and belly sections, but wore different clothing. She wore a pink crop top with her name written on it in purple writing and pink shorts with a black belt and silver buckle. Candy also wore pink and white trainers in this appearance, as well as a gold necklace. As she ran a music shop in the game, Candy wore a pair of blue headphones with a white "C" on either side, with the blue and gray attachment on the right of her belt. | In ''Donkey Kong 64'', Candy had the same physical features as her future appearances, apart from the exposed neck and belly sections, but wore different clothing.

Candy had an entirely different appearance in the cartoons, which differed more than that of any other Kong. On the show, Candy had ginger fur and slightly paler orange hair tied back with a turquoise headband. She had much smaller eyes with no eye shadow, and also lacked the fur on her upper face but had brown eyebrows instead. Her lipstick was closer to skin tone, and she lacked nail varnish in this appearance. She wore a white crop top and blue denim shorts with a black belt and square gold buckle, as well as a pair of turquoise sandals similar to Tiny Kong's. She also wore gold hoop earrings and a gold bangle on her right arm. This appearance is the one used for her appearance in the ''Super Mario-Kun'' manga. | |||

Candy Kong usually has a fairly easy going personality, and often uses affectionate terms to refer to the other Kongs, such as "Honey" and "Sugar", and is also seen blowing kisses in various appearances. Candy is also shown to have a keen interest in music and dance, as she owns a dance studio in the ''Donkey Kong Country'' remakes, and a music shop as well as wearing a pair of headphones and a cassette player in ''Donkey Kong 64''. Her profile on the German ''Donkey Kong 64'' website further reaffirms this, as well as suggesting that she puts a large amount of effort into her appearance and often trains at the fitness centre.

Her personality was completely changed in the animated series however, as she now had a much shorter temper and a stubbornness not usually seen in the games. | ||
===Relationships=== | ===Relationships=== | ||
Candy is shown to be on good terms with most of the Kong family and against the Kremlings. Candy Kong is usually mentioned in various official descriptions to be Donkey Kong's love interest, and often expresses this through the games by using affectionate terms to address him. The instruction booklet that came with ''Donkey Kong Country'', her first appearance, stated that she is presumed to marry Donkey Kong someday and that she is the "[[banana]] of Donkey Kong's eye", but she does not think he is ready to settle down yet.

The instruction booklet that came with ''Donkey Kong Country'', her first appearance, stated that she is presumed to marry Donkey Kong someday and that she is the "[[banana]] of Donkey Kong's eye", but she does not think he is ready to settle down yet. In ''Donkey Kong 64'' Candy has a big carpet with the form of a heart with Donkey Kong's face on it as well as a small picture of him, and in both ''Donkey Kong Country'' and ''Donkey Kong 64'', the gorilla has a picture of her with hearts in his house. She was also shown to be actively dating him in the cartoons, though her ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' trophy description implies that their relationship is a rumor, and Donkey Kong is only stated to have a crush on her in her ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U'' trophy description, not to mention her picture in Donkey Kong's Treehouse has been missing in recent entries like ''Donkey Kong Country 3'' for Game Boy Advanced or ''Donkey Kong Country Returns''. To explain Candy Kong's absence in later games, one official review of ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]'' states that she broke up with Donkey Kong,<ref>''Nintendo Magazine System'' (UK) #50, page 52. "''You’d have thought that after retrieving his banana stash, Donkey Kong would be able to live out his days in peace and harmony with Candy Kong by his side. Unfortunately, she’s given him the push. And to make matters even worse, he’s been captured by those oh-so-pesky Kremlings!''"</ref> although the ''Donkey Kong 64'' manual suggests otherwise.<ref>''Donkey Kong 64'' instruction booklet, page 9. "''That darn Donkey has all the luck! His girl Candy waits around in her hut, always willing to offer her musical help to that undeserving son of mine and his fancy polygonal friends. Pah!''"</ref> | ||
In the cartoons, her boss Bluster Kong also appears to be in love with Candy Kong, though she does not show any of that interest back to him, and is often quite angry towards her boss. Bluster Kong is also shown to be very strict on Candy and often complains about her being late for work and other small things. Funky Kong is also stated to have a crush on Candy in her ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U'' trophy description, though this has yet to be seen in any other game. | |||

''"Everything that [[Tiny Kong|Tiny]] dreams of has come true for Candy. With her long legs, her sweet pouting lips and her silky blond hair, she makes every ape heart beat faster. But she really puts a lot of effort into her beauty. Hours of training sessions in the fitness center are an integral part of her daily schedule. Apart from that she also has considerable musical talent. The Kongs can get various musical instruments from her. After short instruction by Candy they play these with such virtuosity that they literally knock over a [[Kremling]] once in a while."'' | |||
''"Played on special boards, the instruments develop an even greater effect. Gates open, complex mechanisms are set in motion, and even the biggest sleepyhead is catapulted from dreamland. A visit with Candy is always worthwhile, because she always recharges the power of the musical instruments absolutely free of charge, and treats her visitors to an extension for the melon strip once in a while, too."'' | |||
