| | '''Dorachū'''{{refneeded}} are vampire bat enemies from the game ''[[Donkey Kong (Game Boy)|Donkey Kong]]'' on the [[Game Boy]]. They make their first appearance in Stage 4-5 in the [[Jungle (Donkey Kong)|Jungle]]. They fly horizontally across the screen. When they hit [[Mario]], they hang onto him and appear to suck a little bit of blood out of him, causing his face to turn white (in the colored [[Super Game Boy]] version) and fall off the rope he is currently climbing. After falling to the ground, Mario gets up again. Mario can also get defeated by Dorachū if he falls too far after dropping from the rope. |

| '''Dorakyū''' are {{wp|vampire bat}} enemies in the [[Game Boy]] version of ''[[Donkey Kong (Game Boy)|Donkey Kong]]''. They are first encountered in [[Stage 4-5]]. Dorakyū fly horizontally, slightly moving up and down and turning in the opposite direction after bumping into a wall, usually passing by [[rope]]s [[Mario]] can climb. When one of these enemies intercepts Mario, it hangs onto and appears to drain him. Mario is shown to progressively turn pale, suggesting blood loss. After Mario undergoes the enemy's attack, he drops off the rope he is currently climbing. Depending on the height reached from the ground beneath, Mario might either survive the fall or lose a life upon crashing onto the soil. Even though it is risky for Mario to directly interact with Dorakyū bats, these can be knocked out with either falling [[fruit]] or carriable objects and enemies. | |

|
| In ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong]]'', [[Bat (Mario vs. Donkey Kong)|Bat]]s take the role of Dorakyū, borrowing a similar attack pattern. [[Swoop]]s also display similar flight movement in ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis]]''. | | In ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong]]'' they are replaced by similar [[Bat (Donkey Kong)|bat]] enemies. |
