{{species infobox
'''Kobbles''' are basic, green [[Kremlings]] that were used as the soldier grunts of the [[Kremling Krew]] during the events of ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble]]''. They replaced the [[Kritter]]s and [[Klomp]]s of ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' respectively. Unlike their Kritter cousins, Kobbles do not wear clothing of any kind (except for the ring that pierces their lower lips). Kobbles can be easily defeated by any type of attack, and although they look somewhat strongly built, they are not a real threat. Despite being the generic soldier-type, Kobbles were very uncommon in the game (they only appeared in the levels, [[Lakeside Limbo]], [[Tidal Trouble]], and [[Kreeping Klasps]]). However, they did appear with more frequency in the game's pseudo-sequel ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]''.

Kobbles are enemies introduced in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! and returning in Donkey Kong Land III, appearing especially in more levels in the latter. Kobbles have a green body, a light green underbelly, and a lip piercing. They walk back and forth repeatedly, and can be defeated from any of Dixie Kong's and Kiddy Kong's attacks. Kobbles are part of the category "Kremling Kreeps."[1] Kobbles have a purple counterpart named Skidda, found in some of the snow levels.
