'''Tiny Kong''' is a [[Kong]] who first appeared as a young child{{ref needed}} in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'' as [[Dixie Kong]]'s taller, younger sister, before being redesigned into her current "teenage" appearance in ''[[Diddy Kong Racing DS]]''. As Dixie's sister, she is the cousin of [[Kiddy Kong]] and [[Chunky Kong]]. She is known for being both nimble and fast and using her two ponytails to accomplish different tasks.

Following her first appearance she has not had any prominent roles in any other platform game, but was given cameo appearances in the ''Donkey Kong Country'' [[Game Boy Advance]] remakes of the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System]] games. Since her older redesign in ''[[Diddy Kong Racing DS]]'', where her name "Tiny" went from literal to ironic, she has played a larger role in spin-off adventures such as ''[[Donkey Kong Barrel Blast]]'' and has even appeared in ''[[Mario Super Sluggers]]''. With a few exceptions, she is generally playable in the games in which she appears.

In ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'', Tiny is one of the four Kongs imprisoned by the [[Kremling Krew]] at the start of the game. She is imprisoned in the second level, [[Angry Aztec]], and can only be released by [[Diddy Kong]]. He can release her by performing a [[Chimpy Charge]] on the [[wall switch]]es, each with a letter of the word "KONG". In the game manual, [[Cranky Kong|Cranky]] mistakes Tiny for her older sister, Dixie.

Once Tiny is released, she is able to collect purple [[banana]]s, [[Banana Coin]]s and [[blueprint]]s. Like the other Kongs, she can perform [[Simian Slam]] and exclusively on [[Kong Switch]]es that depict her. Tiny's weapon is the [[Feather Bow]], which she can purchase at [[Funky's Store]], to shoot at [[Target Switch|Feather Switch]]es and [[Banana Balloon]]s. At [[Candy's Music Shop]], Tiny can purchase her personal instrument, the [[Saxophone Slam|saxophone]]. Once Tiny learns [[Mini-Monkey]] from [[Cranky's Lab]], she is able to jump into a [[Cranky's Kong Barrel|Tiny Barrel]], causing her to shrink and access small openings. She is the only Kong who can visit the [[Banana Fairy Princess]] on [[Banana Fairy Island]]. The [[Pony Tail Twirl]] allows her to glide across areas.

Tiny Kong cameos in the [[Game Boy Advance]] remake of ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2 (Game Boy Advance)|Donkey Kong Country 2]]''. She is present in several of [[Funky Kong]]'s [[minigames]], namely "[[Funky's Flights (Bonus Game)#Kongnapped|Kongnapped]]" and "[[Funky's Flights (Bonus Game)#Kongnapped 2|Kongnapped 2]]", where Diddy or Dixie has to save her from [[Zinger]]s. Multiple characters that look like Tiny must be rescued in each of the minigames; however, Funky Kong claims that these characters form the Kong family, and thus implies that their appearance is only representative.

She also cameos in the Game Boy Advance remake of ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3 (Game Boy Advance)|Donkey Kong Country 3]]'', this time as an uncloned individual. She is present in Funky Kong's "[[Funky's Rentals#Protect|Protect]]" minigame, where she, along with the rest of [[Kong|her family]], swims in a restricted body of water and is exposed to [[Kremling]]s that purpose to kidnap her and the other members of the family. The player needs to prevent the Kremlings from taking away the Kongs by shooting and sinking their boats.

Tiny Kong's bat is sky blue with a white flower, similar to the one on her top. She is the only Kong character to use a normal bat. Her pitching entrance includes her spinning. When she pitches the ball and the character batting misses three times, she celebrates by turning back and putting her right arm up, and her left arm down. Her batting entrance includes her waving her hand, winking and then preparing to bat. Like with the other team players, Tiny Kong can use Star skills while pitching, which can make the ball go faster or slower. Her sweet spot is the flower on the bat.

She has good [[chemistry]] with her sister, Diddy Kong, Funky Kong, Donkey Kong, [[Baby DK]], and a [[Mii|Cyan Mii]]; she has bad chemistry with King K Rool, Kritter, and [[Birdo]]. When the team she is on wins but she does not win MVP, she celebrates by waving her hands and tilting her hip from one side to another. If she does win MVP, she will break into a brief dance and smiles towards the camera. Her only ability is Clamber, meaning she can climb walls to catch the ball and negate low Home Runs.

Tiny features average pitching, batting, and running skills, along with above average fielding skills (her fielding is a tad weaker than Diddy's, Dixie's and Baby DK's  though) and above average stamina. She is the only balanced character from the ''Donkey Kong'' series, and she has the highest stat total among all the characters (excluding [[Mii]]s) who can only play as team players. In this game, her speed is not as notable as in other games; in the ''Donkey Kong'' series, Tiny is one of the fastest Kongs, even faster than Diddy. But this time, both Diddy Kong and Dixie Kong are faster than her.

Tiny, as her name belies, is a tall [[Kong]], slightly taller than [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Princess Peach]] but not as tall as [[Candy Kong]]. She has blond hair that is tied up in two large pigtails and has blue eyes, unlike her sister who has green eyes. Her eyes have one thick eyelash each, and she also wears dark red eye makeup. Her fur is brown, although in ''Diddy Kong Racing DS'', it was slightly darker. Her current accessories consists of jumbo earrings and white fur wristbands.

Her clothing consists of sky blue sweat pants with a purple tie string and a sky blue belly baring spaghetti-strap top with her belly button exposed. Her top has a similar smiling flower on it and has purple borders, and she wears orchid sandals and a beanie hat that is green at the bottom, purple in the middle, pink on the top and has pink borders around the green color. She has pink nails.
