'''Kalypso''' is a female [[Kremling]] who makes her first and only physical appearance in ''[[Donkey Kong Barrel Blast]]'', where she is an unlockable character. She and [[Kass]] are the only two female Kremling characters, not counting [[King K. Rool]]'s [[List of implied characters#King K. Rool's wife|implied wife]]. Kalypso has pale blue-green skin, red eyes, a purple top with a skull on it, purple claw polish, blue jeans with a white belt, and golden jewelry around her neck, left wrist and tail. Kalypso has a large purple afro, and she is only one of three Kremlings to have hair, the other two being Kass and [[Kasplat]]. Kalypso is about the same height as Tiny. Kalypso's name is derived from "{{wp|calypso music|calypso}}," a style of lively Caribbean folk music.
 
'''Kalypso''' makes her debut in the game ''[[Donkey Kong Barrel Blast]]'', where she is an [[unlockable]] character. Kalypso is a female [[Kritter]] designed to rival [[Tiny Kong]], and as such has the same stats, as well as a similar body composition.  Currently, she and [[Kass]] are the only female [[Kremling]] characters to have appeared in a game in the ''[[Donkey Kong (series)|Donkey Kong]]'' series, as [[King K. Rool]] has been implied to have a wife in some games. Her name is derived from the style of lively Caribbean folk music known as "[[Wikipedia:Calypso music|calypso]]".

She is an unlockable character and is unlocked by winning the [[Sapphire Cup]] with a Kremling. She appears in the game as a rival for [[Tiny Kong]]; as such they share stats and have similar body compositions. Kalypso slashes with her claws as her attack. Her bongos are designed to represent her purple palette and golden jewelry. She has top boost and good speed, but below-average agility similar to Tiny.

Kalypso also appears as a [[sticker]] and a [[Trophy]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', both of which are unlockable, and designed after her appearance in ''Donkey Kong Barrel Blast''. Her trophy mentions her beauty and her groovy hair as well as describing her stats and her clawing attack. Her sticker uses her artwork from ''Donkey Kong Barrel Blast'' and increases launch power.
Kalypso also appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' as a [[Sticker (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)|sticker]] and a [[trophy (Super Smash Bros. series)|trophy]], both of which can be obtained in single-player modes at random. The Kalypso sticker can be applied to any fighter, and doing so boosts their launch power by 26 points in [[smashwiki:Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary|The Subspace Emissary]]. Kalypso's original trophy description, also translated for British English and Korean localizations, mentions that she owns a clubhouse, is talented at sports and dancing, and a good leader. In American English releases, Kalypso's trophy description was rewritten to instead focus on her ''Donkey Kong Barrel Blast'' rather than details about herself.


====''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''====
==Character Description==
Kalypso reappears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' as a Novice-class support [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]]. When used on a fighter, it takes up one support slot and equips them with a [[Rocket Belt]] at the start of a battle. In [[smashwiki:Adventure Mode: World of Light|World of Light]], the spirit is located in a small forested area at the southwest of the Light Realm. In its corresponding battle, the player has to win against a team of four [[Wendy O. Koopa|Wendys]] on the [[Kongo Falls]] stage. The core obtained from Kalypso's spirit can be combined with Don Flamenco's core to summon [[Jimmy T]]'s spirit.
Kalypso has pale blue-green skin, a purple top with a skull design, purple claw polish, and blue jeans with a skull belt. Her hairstyle is  a large purple afro. Her size compliments Tiny Kong's, as such they rival each other in her debut appearance. Kalypso has been described as a cool and attractive character, but it is said she has an irritating laugh.
