Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble

In Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble, Parry cannot be ridden like other Animal Buddies, but instead perfectly mimics Dixie and Kiddy Kong's moves (hence the term "parallel"); in this way, he can be used to grab out-of-reach items. Getting Parry to the No Animal Sign usually earns the Kongs a large reward, such as a Bonus Barrel or a blue Life Balloon, but can be difficult because the only enemy he can safely touch are Booty Birds.
