'''Combo Fairies''' are a special kind of [[:Category:Fairies|fairy]], having nearly the same physical appearance as the fairies in ''[[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time]]'', except slightly smaller. They are a bright, round light that comes in any color and have wings attached. Combo Fairies make their only appearance in the game ''[[Donkey Kong Jungle Beat]]''. Whenever [[Donkey Kong]] performs a combo (a special kind of action, such as swinging from a vine or getting a [[Jungle Buddy]]), a Combo Fairy will appear and circle around Donkey Kong until he lands on the ground. When Donkey Kong lands on the ground, all his Combo Fairies he has collected will turn into beats. Donkey Kong, however, cannot get more than one fairy for the same action-he only gets a new fairy for an action he hasn't performed before. There is no amount to how many fairies can circle around Donkey Kong in the game, though the current known most is eighteen. Upon reaching ten combos, the fairies will begin to sparkle, and the sound effect that plays when Donkey Kong obtain a combo will stop playing.

Combo fairies are a special kind of fairy that appears only in Donkey Kong Jungle Beat. They appear as bright round lights that come in multiple colors, with wings attached. Combo fairies bear a close resemblance to the fairies in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, having nearly the same physical appearance aside from being slightly smaller.

Whenever Donkey Kong performs a combo (a special kind of action, such as swinging from a vine or getting a Jungle Buddy), a combo fairy appears and circles around Donkey Kong until he lands on the ground. Upon him landing, all the collected combo fairies turn into beats. Donkey Kong can obtain more fairies by performing multiple combos with as few repeated actions as possible. There is no limit to how many fairies can circle around Donkey Kong in the game, though the current known maximum is eighteen. Upon him reaching ten combos, the fairies begin to sparkle, and the sound effect that plays when Donkey Kong obtains a combo stops playing.

Throughout the game, there are several ways to obtain a combo, including:
