Smokey
Smokey the Dragon is one of the boss racers on Timber's Island. During the events of Diddy Kong Racing, Smokey is brainwashed by Wizpig and entrusted with a piece of Wizpig's amulet. Smokey allows someone to race him if he or she beats all the challenges in his area, Dragon Forest. During his race, Smokey leaves behind puffs of fire which can cause the player to lose speed of his or her airplane briefly. If Smokey is defeated, he allows the player to gain access to Dragon Forest's Silver Coin challenges.
If all the Silver Coin challenges of Dragon Forest are beaten, players can re-race Smokey. In this rematch, Smokey flies much faster, and he also produces much more fireballs this time around. When Smokey is defeated once again, he breaks free of Wizpig's control and award the one who freed him with the piece of Wizpig's amulet he was charged with guarding.
Smokey also appears in Diddy Kong Racing's end-of-game celebration after the defeat of Wizpig.
Smokey appears in Diddy Kong Racing DS which has him with a new voice and now he is an easy foe. He produces no fireballs on the first race and only a few in the rematch. Template:BoxTop
