Baby Donkey Kong is Donkey Kong's younger self in Yoshi's Island DS. He appears on the scene at the beginning of World 2. He has a monogrammed bib, just like the current DK has a monogrammed tie. DK is the most powerful of the babies. He has many abilities that help the Yoshis many times:
- He can climb vines and chains, even hang onto a swinging rope and using the momentum to move forward.
- If the player presses ↓ and then the swallowing button (either Y or B depending on control settings), DK can do a shoulder charge that can break through dirt walls, some enemies, and tough blocks.
- Eggs thrown by Yoshi have an explosive effect – it is possible to defeat more than one enemy and activate ? Clouds, defeat enemies, or grab items just out of reach by a wall by the mini-blast.
- When a Yoshi ground pounds on poles, the pole goes all the way down on the first try, relating to DK's power.
[edit] Future Appearances
Baby Donkey Kong is playable in Mario Super Sluggers for the Wii console; His first appearance in a Mario sports game.
