Re-Koils, also spelled Rekoils, are enemies in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! and Donkey Kong Land III. These orange Kremlings have a springy tail. They always stick their tongue out and have their eyes point in opposite directions. Re-Koils have four fingers and three toes, and they are one of the few Kremlings with claws on their hands. They have a yellow belly, and the front of their tail is also yellow. They are the successors to jumping Kritters from Donkey Kong Country and Kaboings from Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest, though Re-Koils may have taken inspiration from Tigger, a character from Winnie-the-Pooh who is similarly orange and uses his tail as a spring.
History[edit]
Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble![edit]
Re-Koils first appear in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!. They bounce on their tail continuously, usually bounce either in one spot or back and forth, though starting in Krack Shot Kroc, some bounce continuously in one direction. Some Re-Koils bounce on their tail without getting off the ground. If a Re-Koil lands on Dixie Kong or Kiddy Kong, that Kong gets injured. The Kongs can defeat a Re-Koil by either rolling into it just before it lands, jumping onto it, or hitting the Re-Koil with a barrel. Re-Koils give the same sound effect from being defeated as Krooks, Klingers, and Kloaks, although not in the Game Boy Advance version. Due to their high-bouncing ability, the Kongs can sometimes use Re-Koils to reach higher areas or out-of-reach items. A photograph of a Re-Koil appears in Dixie Kong's Photo Album, in which it is classified as part of the Kremling Kreeps.
