| '''D.D.s'''<ref name="EN Manual"/> (short for '''Dangerous Duck''')<ref name="EN Manual"/> are enemies in the [[Wario Land (series)|''Wario Land'' series]], appearing only in ''[[Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3]]'' and ''[[Wario Land II]]''. D.D.s are anthropomorphic ducks, wearing striped bandanas and goggles, and members of [[Captain Syrup]]'s pirate crew, the [[Black Sugar Gang]]. D.D. wield a [[boomerang]] as a weapon and have an attack pattern reminiscent to that of a [[Boomerang Bro]]ther. When a D.D. spots [[Wario]], it will stop walking, swing its boomerang in its hand three times, and then throw it at Wario, damaging him if it hits him. D.D.s can be stunned and picked up, but since D.D.s are one of the heavier enemies, Wario is slowed as he moves around while carrying one.

|
| D.D.s received some changes in ''Wario Land II'', which made them and their boomerangs slightly smaller, and the latter spin faster. In the [[Game Boy Color]] version, they are usually given an orange, mint green, and dark blue palette, though four D.D.s in the level [[Defeat four ducks!]], where Wario has to find and defeat four of them, were given a deep red, blue, and black color palette. | | ==History== |

| | D.D.s first appear in this game. They try to hinder [[Wario]] on his quest for treasure on [[Kitchen Island]]. When they spot the treasure hunter, they will stop walking, hit their boomerangs on the ground three times and then throw it at Wario. If they happen to hit him, he will regress to a weaker form or even lose a life. |

|
| Additionally, in ''Wario Land II'', an unlockable [[minigame]] titled [[Flagman D-D]] can be accessed after achieving a 100% [[completion]] rating. It features a D.D. as a host, along with a [[White puff]] and a [[Gugi]].
| | ===''[[Wario Land II]]''=== |
| | [[File:WL2 E DD.PNG|frame]] |
| | The D.D.s return in the sequel. Their attack pattern remains exactly the same as it has been in the previous game: Charging and then throwing their boomerangs at Wario. They are classified as heavy enemies in this game, meaning that Wario will slow down significantly when carrying one. In the [[Game Boy Color]] version, they are depicted as being orange and mint green with a dark blue outline. |
