| '''Diddy Kong''' is [[Donkey Kong|Donkey Kong's]] buddy, nephew<ref>http://web.archive.org/web/20020819225350/www.rareware.com/the_site/rare_games/new_games_digest/dk64_digest/dk64_cl_copy.html</ref>, and companion who has gone on countless adventures with him. Diddy is a creation of the British company, [[Rare, Ltd.]]; however, he has a [[Nintendo]] logo on his trademarked red hat, probably because Nintendo owned Rare and the rights to the ''[[Donkey Kong (series)|Donkey Kong]]'' franchise at the time. The name 'Diddy' is a slang word used in some parts of northern England for 'small,' as Diddy is. Diddy has also gone on many adventures by himself and has even starred in his own racing game for the [[Nintendo 64]] and later for the [[Nintendo DS]].

| |
| [[File:Diddy.jpg|thumb|left|121px|The original render of Diddy Kong.]]
| |
| Diddy Kong first appears in ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]''. Here, he is still Donkey Kong's apprentice and an "in-training video-game star". Donkey decides to let Diddy guard his [[Banana Hoard]]. Unfortunately, when DK assigns this duty to Diddy he does not expect the [[Kremling Krew]] to attack. Unable to defend himself from a [[Krusha]], Diddy is sealed in [[DK Barrel|a barrel]]. The next morning, Donkey wakes and, realizing his [[Banana Hoard]] is missing, finds and releases Diddy. The two set off to reclaim the bananas and drive the Kremlings away from [[Donkey Kong Island]]. Throughout their journey, the Kongs must travel through seven worlds and defeat bosses found at the end of each world while [[Cranky Kong]], [[Funky Kong]], and [[Candy Kong]] help them. The [[Animal Buddies]] also assist them in traveling through levels. Eventually, Donkey and Diddy reach and defeat [[King K. Rool]]. However, King K. Rool gets up with more attacks. However, Donkey and Diddy manage to truly defeat him, reclaiming Donkey Kong's Banana Hoard.

| In ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'', the Kremling Krew kidnaps Donkey Kong and whisks him away to their own island, [[Crocodile Isle]]. K. Rool, who is now Kaptain K. Rool, threatens to never return Donkey Kong unless he is given the Banana Hoard. Diddy refuses to give because he and Donkey Kong took plenty of effort recover it in the previous game. Diddy and his girlfriend, Dixie, ventures through Crocodile Isle and rescues Donkey Kong from [[King K. Rool|Kaptain K. Rool]]. Near the end of ''Diddy's Kong Quest'', while Donkey Kong is rescued by Diddy and [[Dixie Kong]], Crocodile Isle sinks into the ocean.

Roolenstein]] they discover that [[KAOS]], K. Rool's stand-in leader for the [[Kremling Krew]], contains Diddy and Donkey. It seems K. Rool has abducted Diddy and Donkey for the purpose of using their brain energy to power KAOS.

In it, he and Donkey Kong go on another quest to reclaim the Banana Hoard, which has been stolen by the Tiki Tak Tribe by hypnotizing the animals on the island. In the end, he and Donkey Kong get the Banana Hoard back from the Tiki Tak Tribe. Diddy can also be controlled in this game by a second Wii Remote, and his jetpack can be used.

Melee]]'' or ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', he is mentioned in
| |
| both games.
| |

| ====[[Solid Snake]] Codec Conversation====
| |
| *'''Snake''': [[Otacon]], there's a chimpanzee here wearing a Nintendo hat.

| |
| *'''Snake''': Peanuts? As in the ones in the little shells? Are you serious?
| |
| *'''Otacon''': Wait, here's the best part. You see them lying on the ground after he shoots? If you pick up some of those peanuts, they'll restore your health a little.
| |
| *'''Snake''': Hmm. Edible ammunition, huh... Times sure have changed.

| | |
| ====Role in the [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl#Story|Subspace Emissary]]====
| |
| [[File:SubspaceIntro-DiddyKong.png|200px|thumb|left|'''Diddy Kong''''s snapshot in The Subspace Emissary.]]
| |
| In [[the Jungle]], Diddy Kong helps [[Donkey Kong]] recover bananas stolen from the [[Koopa Troop]], only to have [[Bowser]] appear and attempt to use his [[Dark Cannon]] on the [[Kong]]s. Donkey knocks Diddy away to safety before anything happens, however. At [[the Lake]], Diddy encounters [[Rayquaza]], teams up with [[Fox McCloud]] by force, and fights [[False Character|False Bowser]], but they end up fleeing from the real Bowser. As they reach [[the Swamp]], Bowser successfully attacks Diddy and clones him into False Diddy Kong. After Diddy is revived, he defeats the clone and teams up with [[Falco Lombardi]], again by force.
| |
| | |
| Upon discovering that Donkey is being taken to the [[Island of the Ancients]], Falco drops Diddy for the little Kong to rescue him. After receiving help from [[Captain Falcon]] and [[Captain Olimar]] to fend off the [[Subspace Army]], all four of them end up at [[the Subspace Bomb Factory]]. Upon meeting [[Samus]] and [[Pikachu]], [[R.O.B.]] reveals himself just before they are forced to evacuate the island as it is sucked into [[Subspace (SSB)|Subspace]].
| |
| | |
| In Subspace, [[Tabuu]] turns all of the gathered heroes, including Diddy, into trophies. However, Diddy is among the fighters rescued by [[King Dedede]] and his team before they all head into [[the Great Maze]] to defeat Tabuu and save the world, with help from [[Sonic the Hedgehog]].
| |
| | |
| ====Special Moves====
| |
| =====Peanut Popgun=====
| |
| [[File:Brawl Peanut Popgun.jpg|thumb|200px|left|Diddy's '''Peanut Popgun'''.]]
| |
| {{main|SmashWiki:Peanut Popgun}}
| |
| The '''Peanut Popgun''' appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', as an attack for Diddy Kong. It is Diddy Kong's standard special move, and can be charged up. When charged up, the peanuts fired are much faster and have a better chance at hitting the opponents. However, charging it up too long is dangerous, as it might explode on Diddy Kong. The attack occasionally releases Peanuts, which can be eaten for a slight health restoration. Diddy Kong also uses two Peanut Popguns when using his Final Smash, the Rocketbarrel Barrage. If Diddy Kong's powers are copied by Kirby, Kirby is also able to use Peanut Popgun.
| |
| <br clear=all>
| |
| | |
| =====Monkey Flip=====
| |
| [[File:MonkeyFlip.jpg|thumb|200px|right|Diddy's '''Monkey Flip'''.]]
| |
| {{main|SmashWiki:Monkey Flip}}
| |
| '''Monkey Flip''' is Diddy Kong's Side Special Move in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. Diddy Kong leaps forward towards the enemies, latches onto them, and begins attacking. {{button|gcn|B}} can be used to pummel while latched on, and A can be used to push off of them, knocking them away. As this sends Diddy forward, it can be used in addition to his Up-{{button|gcn|B}} recovery since it does not put Diddy into Helpless state afterward. If Diddy presses {{button|gcn|A}} while performing this move, he sticks a foot out and kicks the opponents instead of latching on. However, this kick prevents him from using his Up-{{button|gcn|B}} until the next time he lands. By jumping after latching onto an enemy, he must jump onto his or her head and push him or her downward which performs a spike. The Monkey Flip can also set up a 'Diddycide' (a term that many professional Smash players use).
| |
| <br clear=all>
| |
| | |
| =====Rocketbarrel Boost=====
| |
| [[File:Brawl Rocketbarrel Boost.jpg|thumb|200px|left|Diddy's '''Rocketbarrel Boost'''.]]
| |
| {{main|SmashWiki:Rocketbarrel Boost}}
| |
| The '''Rocketbarrel Boost''' (labeled '''Rocketbarrel Blast''' in the instruction booklet) is Diddy's Up special move in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. Rocketbarrel Boost allows Diddy to fly with only his Jet Pack. Diddy Kong can charge this attack up, and if it is charged, he is able to fly farther. Tilting {{button|gcn|Stick}} allows Diddy to curve his flight path, allowing him to fly in several different directions. It causes damage to anyone who hits it. However, if Diddy Kong is attacked while flying, he loses his jetpack and falls. The jetpack then flies away and has a chance of hitting another player. The Rocketbarrel Boost is also used during Diddy Kong's [[Final Smash]], Rocketbarrel Barrage.

| |
| {{main|SmashWiki:Banana Peel (move)}}
| |
| '''Banana Peel''' is Diddy Kong's down special move in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. In this, he brings a [[Banana|Banana Peel]] out of nowhere, and throws it randomly onto the ground. If opponents trip on the said banana peel, they take a minor amount of damage. Although up to two banana peels can be on the ground at once, if there are any more, they disappear. Diddy can use this move, even if he is already holding an item.

| [[File:Rocketbarrel Barrage.jpg|thumb|200px|left|Diddy's '''Rocketbarrel Barrage'''.]]
| |
| {{main|SmashWiki:Rocketbarrel Barrage}}
| |
| '''Rocketbarrel Barrage''' is Diddy Kong's [[Final Smash]], in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. It utilizes both the [[Peanut Popgun]] and [[Rocketbarrel Boost]] attacks, from ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'', and fuses them to create a very powerful attack. When the [[Smash Ball]] is collected, Diddy Kong gets his Rocketbarrel Boost out and holds two Peanut Popguns. He then continues to fly around the entire stage, with the player being able to control him. Pressing the attack button causes him to shoot explosive [[Peanut]]s at the opponents. When they hit a player or the ground, they explode with a large blast radius, devastating anyone hit. However, any Peanut that does not hit a player opens and reveals a [[Food]] item, which can be eaten to restore health. When time is up, the Rocketbarrel explodes, hurting anyone nearby. It does not hurt Diddy, however.

| ===''Mario Sports Mix''===
| |
| [[File:MSMart5.png|thumb|left|Diddy Kong stealing a basketball from [[Donkey Kong]].]]
| |
| Diddy Kong appears in ''[[Mario Sports Mix]]'' as a playable character. He is a speedy character that has a slightly higher technique stat countered with a slightly lower power stat. The only other two speedy characters are [[Bowser Jr.]] and [[Toad]]. His Special Move has him throwing a banana that acts like a boomerang, attempting to stun any players that try to counter his shot.
| |
| | |
| ===Canceled Appearances===
| |
| Diddy was to star in both ''[[Diddy Kong Pilot]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Racing]]'' as a main character and a sidekick, respectively, but these games were canceled before they could be released when [[Rare, Ltd.]] moved to Microsoft.

| | |
| ==Charactistics==
| |
| ===Physical Appearance===
| |
| [[File:Diddy Kong.png|thumb|Diddy Kong, holding his red hat, with the Nintendo logo on it.]]
| |
| Diddy Kong shares several traits to a [[wikipedia:Spider Monkey|Spider Monkey]]. He has brown-colored fur, while his face, ears, hands, feet, belly and belly button (in the original Donkey Kong Country he had no visible nostrils or belly button) are exposed, showing Diddy's pale skin. He has versatile feet, and a prehensile tail, which he uses most of the time to hold certain small items or also hang on objects. Diddy Kong's face is somehow similar to [[Donkey Kong]]; however, Diddy has big eyes and a less frowned space between the eyebrows, covered in fur, as opposed to DK's. His ears are a bit big, the same size of his eyes. Diddy's eyes are usually depicted as black, although in ''[[Diddy Kong Racing]]'' reveals blue eyes. On the other hand, ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' gives him brown eyes.
| |
| | |
| Diddy's clothing consists of a red cap showing the logo of [[Nintendo]] on its front, and a red tank top, with yellow [[Star]]s on it. In ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'', an alternate Diddy's clothing was a yellow tank top and a yellow cap. It appeared when two players wished to play independently. In ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'', Diddy Kong appears with another alternate costume as well. In the sequel, Diddy wears a purple costume. For the recent edition of ''Super Smash Bros.'' series, Diddy has a wider selection of alternate color costumes. In ''[[Mario Strikers Charged Football]]'', Diddy wears armor, protecting him against hazards set in the game. He wears a pair of wristbands, shoulder-pads, and a cuirasse over his tank top to protect his chest. The armor is mainly yellow, but it turns to purple in case that his opponents wear a similar color scheme. Later in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'', when the [[Super Guide]] mode is activated and [[Super Kong]] breaks a [[DK Barrel]] open, Super Diddy Kong appears. Super Diddy Kong has white fur, a white cap and a blue tank top.

| | |
| ===Powers and Abilities===
| |
| [[File:DKC Cartwheel.jpg|thumb|left|110px|Diddy Kong using his cartwheel attack from ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'']]
| |
| In almost every appearance he makes in, Diddy Kong has been shown to be very quick and nimble to offset Donkey Kong's great strength. As a result, Diddy has more trouble defeating larger enemies. In many games he has appeared, such as in ''Donkey Kong Country'' and ''Donkey Kong 64'', he is able to use his cartwheel to attack opponents, but also to jump farther in ''Donkey Kong Country''.
| |
| | |
| While teamed up with Dixie Kong during the events of ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest|Donkey Kong Country 2]]'', Diddy is able to pick up his partner and throw her to high areas or enemies. He can also throw her at collectibles that float above pits.
| |
| | |
| In some games, Diddy Kong can also use his Jetpack to fly to hard-to-reach areas. However, in ''Donkey Kong 64'', this Jetpack is only given to him after entering a [[Kong Barrel]], and it can only be used in certain areas. During the time Diddy Kong uses his Jetpack, he is also equipped with [[Peanut Popgun]]s, which allow him to defeat or stun distant enemies and activate switches. During ''Donkey Kong Country Returns'', Diddy can use his Jetpack in order to carry Donkey Kong over pits. Additionally, in ''Donkey Kong 64'' he is able to use his tail to attack enemies or use it as a spring to reach higher areas. In the same game, he can use his special dashing ability to ram into gongs and other objects. In ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', he is able to combine his Jetpack and Peanut Popgun for his final smash.

| [[File:Diddyjuggleani.gif|frame|right|Diddy juggling.]]
| |
| In ''Mario Superstar Baseball'', Diddy Kong, with his good running stat, also possess the ability to climb on walls and catch balls that are otherwise fair. He also has Super Catch ensuring that he does not fumble any routine fly balls. His pitches and batting involve curving the ball in the shape of a banana. This ability is also present in ''Mario Power Tennis''.
| |
| | |
| Diddy Kong is capable of juggling, which he does in ''Donkey Kong Country 2'', if he does not move for a while. Also, his artwork for ''[[Mario Super Sluggers]]'' portrays him juggling three baseballs.
| |
| | |
| ==Relationships with Other Characters==
| |
| ===Donkey Kong===
| |
| {{main|Donkey Kong}}
| |
| Diddy Kong is Donkey Kong's best friend. In fact, Diddy Kong has even been described as a nephew wannabe. Together they have been on countless adventures. Diddy idolizes him and will usually help him whenever he needs it. Together they pair up as an "apish" Mario Bros. They have since usually appeared together in sports games.
| |
| | |
| ===Dixie Kong===
| |
| {{main|Dixie Kong}}
| |
| Dixie Kong, Diddy Kong's girlfriend, is another who has been on adventures with Diddy. Dixie has worked with her cousin [[Kiddy Kong]] to free him and Donkey from K. Rool's control in ''Donkey Kong Country 3''. Dixie has also appeared in a few sports games with Diddy. She was one of the Kongs that Diddy brought with him to help Timber in ''Diddy Kong Racing DS''.
| |
| | |
| ===Cranky Kong===
| |
| {{main|Cranky Kong}}
| |
| Cranky is somewhat of a fatherly figure to Diddy, calling himself a "grandfather" of sorts despite no direct relation. In ''Donkey Kong Country 2'', Cranky often complains about Diddy getting a starring role while he is stuck in a gloomy shed with no chair. If Diddy collects all the hero coins Cranky will call Diddy a true video game hero and comments that he must take after him and Donkey.

| ==Trivia==
| |
| *Diddy Kong also starred in [[Nintendo Monopoly]]. He costs $260, and took the role of Ventnor Avenue.
| |
| *In ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', [[Solid Snake]] incorrectly refers to Diddy as a chimpanzee. Chimpanzees do not have tails, and Diddy has been described as a monkey since his debut.
| |
| *Diddy Kong appears on ''Mario Kart Wii'' Trading Cards as a normal and foil card. On the back of his card, there is a description of him but with a spelling error saying "...he his one fun driver", instead of saying "...he is one fun driver".
| |
| *Prior to his appearance in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' and ''[[Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour]]'', Diddy Kong had only four fingers on each hand. Now, he, like most other characters, has five.
