'''Knockas''' are green lanky [[Kremling]]s who hide in green [[barrel]]s with faces painted on them. They are encountered in both ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]''. They are the direct successor of [[Klobber]]s from ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]'', though unlike Klobbers, the barrel worn by Knockas can easily be differentiated from a regular barrel. In the Game Boy Advance version, they reuse the voice clips of Klobbers from its prequel.

Knockas have two variants, [[Klasp]]s and [[Kuchuka]]s. The former climbs across a horizontal [[rope]] while hiding inside a [[TNT Barrel]] and the latter stays inside a purple barrel and throws bombs at [[Dixie Kong]] and [[Kiddy Kong]]. In the [[Game Boy Advance]] version, they have another variant, [[Kracka]], a ground variant of Klasp, appears in a [[Pacifica]] level.

==History==
===''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!''===
In ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!'', Knockas are common enemies who appear in many levels. Like their predecessor, Klobber, a Knocka hides in its barrel; if [[Dixie Kong]] or [[Kiddy Kong]] approaches the enemy, it attempts to knock into them. They cannot directly injure the [[Kong]]s, so Knockas try and hit them into another enemy or a pit. To defeat a Knocka, the Kongs must [[jump]] onto it, pick it up, and throw it. Unlike Klobbers from ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'', Dixie and Kiddy do not lose any items if a Knocka hits them.

In [[Dixie Kong's Photo Album]], a Knocka is categorized under the [[Kremling Kreeps]].

===''Donkey Kong Land III''===
In ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]'', Knockas, along with Klasps and Kuchukas, are still semi-common enemies. They retain their behavior from ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!'' The ending of the game erroneously titles Knockas as [[Krusha]]s.

When Knocka is carried by a Kong in the [[Game Boy Color]] version, it changes from green to red, because it uses the same exact sprite and palette as a regular carried barrel. When the Kong puts the Knocka back onto the ground, it changes back to its normal green color.

-'''Knockas''' are [[List of enemies|enemies]] introduced in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]''. These green lanky [[Kremling]]s hide in green [[barrel]]s with menacing faces painted on them. They are the successor of [[Klobber]]s from ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'', but Knockas are different mainly from the fact that they wear a barrel with a noticeably different appearance from regular barrels. Knockas have two variants, [[Klasp]]s and [[Kuchuka]]s; the former climbs across a horizontal [[rope]] while hiding inside a [[TNT Barrel]], while the latter stays inside a purple barrel and throws bombs at [[Dixie Kong]] and [[Kiddy Kong]].

 ==History==
 ===''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!''===
-Knockas are enemies in ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!''. They hide in their barrel at first, dormant, until being approached by [[Dixie Kong]] or [[Kiddy Kong]], then the Knocka begins to run after them. Knockas cannot damage the player characters directly and opt for trying to push them into another enemy or a pit instead. A Knocka can be defeated if the [[Kong]] [[jump]]s onto it, picks up the Knocka, and throws it at a surface. In [[Dixie Kong's Photo Album]], a Knocka is categorized under the [[Kremling Kreeps]].

-In the [[Donkey Kong Country 3 (Game Boy Advance)|remake]], Knockas use the same voice clips as Klobbers from the [[Donkey Kong Country 2 (Game Boy Advance)|previous game]]. Additionally, the remake also introduces [[Kracka]]s, a variant of Klasp behaving like Knockas.
+In [[Dixie Kong's Photo Album]], a Knocka is categorized under the [[Kremling Kreeps]].
 ===''Donkey Kong Land III''===
-Knockas are enemies in ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]''. They act the same as before. The ending of the game erroneously titles Knockas as [[Krusha]]s. Outside of international releases, a Knocka changes from green to red only while being carried, using the exact sprite and palette as a barrel when carried.
