Click-Clacks are enemies in ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest''. They appear in several [[level]]s in every world (except [[The Flying Krock]] and the [[Lost World (Donkey Kong Country 2)|Lost World]]). Like most enemies, Click-Clacks move around in a set pattern. Click-Clacks have to be [[jump]]ed on twice to be defeated, with the first jump flipping the Click-Clack onto its back, leaving it defenseless to a second hit. Click-Clacks can be instantly defeated from either Diddy's [[Cartwheel Attack]] or Dixie's [[Helicopter Spin]], by throwing a projectile, such as a [[barrel]] or [[Cannonball|kannonball]] at them, or if Diddy or Dixie pick up a Click-Clack lying on its back and throw it at another enemy.
Click-Clacks first appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]''. They are common enemies and appear in several [[level]]s in every world (except [[The Flying Krock]] and the [[Lost World (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Lost World]].


Yellow [[Knik-Knak]]s behave like their successor in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' in that two [[jump]]s also defeat them, the first of which flips them over.
Like most enemies, Click-Clacks move around in a set pattern. Click-Clacks have some durability, as shown from if [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] or [[Dixie Kong]] jump on one, it falls on its back undefeated. While it is in this state, the Click-Clack is defenseless, allowing the [[Kong]]s to jump on it again to defeat it. However, after a few seconds from falling on its back, the Click-Clack hops back onto its feet and continues moving around. The Kongs can also pick up a Click-Clack while it is on its back. Click-Clacks can instantly be defeated from either Diddy's [[Cartwheel Attack]] or Dixie's [[Helicopter Spin]], or by throwing a [[barrel]] or [[kannonball]] at them.
 
In the game's sequel, ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble]]'', Click-Clacks seem to have been succeeded by the yellow [[Knik-Knak]]s, who behave similarly to Click-Clack.


===''Donkey Kong Land 2''===
===''Donkey Kong Land 2''===
Click-Clacks are enemies in ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]''. They behave identically to their first appearance, though the player is given control of Diddy or Dixie as they bounce back in midair after their first jump on a Click-Clack. Click-Clacks appear in fewer levels than in ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest''. In the end credits, Click-Clacks are classified with "The Baddies."
Click-Clacks make their second appearance in ''Donkey Kong Land 2''. Here, Click-Clacks behave almost identically to their first appearance aside from one minor difference: if either Diddy or Dixie jump on a Click-Clack, the player can move them as they bounce back in midair. Click-Clacks appear in fewer levels than in ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest''.
 
During the end credits of the Japanese release, Click-Clacks are known as Beetles.

===''DK: King of Swing'' / ''DK: Jungle Climber''===
Click-Clacks are enemies in both ''[[DK: King of Swing]]'' and ''[[DK: Jungle Climber]]''. They patrol around [[Peg Board]]s. If attacked from the front, Click-Clack damages [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]].
Click-Clacks make a reappearance in ''[[DK: King of Swing]]'' and its sequel ''[[DK: Jungle Climber]]'', where they patrol around [[Peg Board]]s. They cannot be attacked from the front, as this makes their pincers injure [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]].

Click-Clack appears in both ''Donkey Kong Country 2'' and ''Donkey Kong Land 2'' unless otherwise noted.
A Click-Clack (under its Japanese name, which is just '''Beetle''') makes a brief cameo in Volume 14 of ''[[Super Mario-Kun]]''. The last part of the book has a series of comics based on ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'', including a 'find the differences' activity between several enemies, including Click-Clack.
