Kobbles are basic Kremling enemies which first appear in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! They are the successor to Kritters and Klomps from Donkey Kong Country and Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest respectively. Kobbles have a green body, a light green underbelly, and a lip piercing. They have a purple counterpart named Skidda, which appears in some snow levels.
History
Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!
In Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!, Kobbles only appear in three boardwalk levels, Lakeside Limbo, Tidal Trouble, and Kreeping Klasps. Like most enemies, Kobbles walk back and forth in a pattern, and Dixie Kong and Kiddy Kong can defeat them by using any attack. Later on, in Dixie Kong's Photo Album, a photograph of Kobble appears under the "Kremling Kreeps" enemy class; this photograph shows a Kobble in a mill area despite not appearing in any such levels.
In the Game Boy Advance version, Kobbles make a higher-pitched voice when defeated, similarly to Kritters and Klomps in the remakes of the first two Donkey Kong Country games. The only Kobble of Tidal Trouble is absent from the Game Boy Advance remake, making them even less common.
Donkey Kong Land III
In Donkey Kong Land III, Kobbles act identically as in the previous game. Kobbles appear in many more levels, a total of 18, and in more settings than boardwalks:
