Chikuchiku
First appearance	Donkey Kong (1994)
Comparable Gyātoru Sniper Sukōpī

Chikuchiku are prickly enemies from Donkey Kong for Game Boy. They make their first appearance in Stage 8-2 of the Rocky-Valley. Just like Sniper and Sukōpī enemies, they stick to and go around the environment, walking up walls and ceilings in the process; they are also dangerous to touch from any side. While most Chikuchiku walk at an intermediate speed, there is one that walks slowly and one that walks fast in Stage 8-2. Chikuchiku can be defeated with a hammer, but since this marks a rare occasion in the game, it is best Mario dodges them at all costs.
