'''Kaptain Skurvy''' was a recurring character and villain on the [[Donkey Kong Country (show)|''Donkey Kong Country'' animated series]]. He was voiced by Billy West. | |||

== Appearances == | |||
Skurvy's first appearance on the show was in the episode "[[Booty and the Beast]]". In this episode, Skurvy, along with his shipmates, [[Kutlass (character)|Kutlass]], [[Green Kroc]], and [[Polly Roger]], attempt to steal the legendary [[Crystal Coconut]]; which Skurvy believes to be his birthright, as his great-great-grand pappy was the one who first discovered it and was the one who brought it to [[Donkey Kong Island|Kongo Bongo Island]]. | |||
Capturing [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]], Skurvy's theft seemed to have gone on without a hitch. Unfortunately for Skurvy, interference came in the form of an abnormally large [[Klaptrap]] named [[Junior the Giant Klaptrap|Junior]]. Junior managed to free Donkey and Diddy and during the fight between the [[Kong]]s and Skurvy's crew, Junior actually ate Skurvy's ship. After this disaster, Skurvy was sent packing along with his crew (minus Polly Roger, who had seemingly joined the [[Kremling Krew]]). | |||

Skurvy and his minions returned in the episode "[[The Legend of the Crystal Coconut]]". Here, Skurvy once again attempted to steal the Crystal Coconut, but was unfortunately hindered in his plan due to the fact that the Crystal Coconut kept switching hands between the Kremling Krew and the Kongs. | |||

At the end of the episode Skurvy does manage to gain the Crystal Coconut, only to lose it seconds later. It seems Donkey Kong had thrown the Crystal Coconut at Skurvy a little too hard as it ended up knocking out Skurvy's sore tooth out. Due to this, Skurvy had to give the coconut back to Donkey, as he had sworn on the Great Great Great Pirate Oath that he would grant a favor to anyone who knocked out his tooth, and the favor Donkey asked for was that Skurvy give the Crystal Coconut back. | At the end of the episode Skurvy does manage to gain the Crystal Coconut, only to lose it seconds later.

In the episode "[[Bug a Boogie]]", Skurvy tries to steal the [[Crystal Coconut]] once again, and this time succeeds and even manages to steal everything in [[Cranky's Cabin]] along with it.

Rool]] into giving it back. | In the episode "[[Bug a Boogie]]", Skurvy tries to steal the [[Crystal Coconut]] once again, and this time succeeds and even manages to steal everything in [[Cranky's Cabin]] along with it.

Skurvy's next appearance was in the episode "[[Ape-Nesia]]". Here he tricks an amnesia-stricken Donkey Kong into thinking he was Skurvy's first-mate, "Donkey Croc". Skurvy manipulates Donkey into stealing various objects, including the Crystal Coconut. Eventually, Donkey regains his memory and tricks Skurvy, along with K. Rool, into falling into a [[banana]] peel ridden trap. The end of the episode shows that both Skurvy and K. Rool both gained amnesia. | Skurvy's next appearance was in the episode "[[Ape-Nesia]]".

"The Kongo Bongo Festival of Lights" | The last appearance of Skurvy was in the Christmas-themed episode, "[[The Kongo Bongo Festival of Lights]]". In this episode revealed much of Skurvy's origin, the most startling revelation being that K. Rool's general, [[General Klump]], was Skurvy's long-lost younger brother. It was revealed that Klump, as a young boy, had set off some fireworks, causing a large fire that devastated his and Klump's family swamp. Skurvy, in a show of brotherly love, took the blame for the accident and was banished from the swamp. He then ran off and became a pirate. | ||
The end of the episode reveals that Klump had planned on leaving the Kremling Krew and joining Skurvy's crew, much to the protests of K. Rool. | |||
"The Kongo Bongo Festival of Lights" seems to reveal why Skurvy was so cold-hearted as to do something as bad as break the Kongo Bongo Festival truce between the Kongs and the Kremlings (something even K. Rool wouldn't do). It seems that losing Klump gave Skurvy the philosophy that if he couldn't "steal back what was lost", he could "steal everything else". | |||
== | == Trivia == | ||
* Kaptain Skurvy, perhaps intentionally, resembles a [[Kannon]], a type of [[Kremling]] from the games ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]''; Kannons are simply [[Klump]]s (the species) in pirate garb, thus explaining Klump (the character) and Skurvy's similar appearance. | |||
* Skurvy's unnamed ship resembles K. Rool's vessel, the [[Gangplank Galleon]] from the game ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'', among others. | |||
* During the entire show's run it is never revealed if Skurvy was Kaptain Skurvy's first or last name, though it is implied that it is his first name. | |||
* In ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'', a trio of pirate crabs, called the Scurvy Crew, appear. Whether this is or isn't a reference to Skurvy is unknown. | |||
