List of Donkey Kong profiles and statistics

This is a list of profiles and statistics for Donkey Kong.

Super Smash Bros. series

Super Smash Bros.

• Instruction Booklet Bio: "Mario's former enemy, this mighty ape is bestowed with tremendous power and overwhelming attacks."
• Game Bio: Donkey Kong and Mario started out as arch-rivals, but they've patched things up in recent years. These days Donkey Kong spends his time searching the jungle for bananas instead of kidnapping beautiful maidens. In the past few years, other members of the Kong family have cashed in on DK's fame as well, including his favorite nephew, Diddy.

Super Smash Bros. Melee

• Instruction Booklet bio: "An ape with overwhelming girth and power."

Trophies

#	Name	Image	First Game / Move	Description
4	Donkey Kong (Classic)	File:Trophy4.PNG	Donkey Kong Arcade 1981	While he now prefers the laid-back jungle lifestyle to construction site mischief, DK is often forced back into action by the Kremling Krew. The great ape is quite fast despite his burly physique, and he keeps his strength up with a steady diet of his favorite food: bananas. His one extravagance (and only piece of clothing) is a monogrammed necktie.
5	Donkey Kong [Smash] (Adventure)	File:Trophy5.PNG	: Giant Punch Smash : Headbutt	Donkey Kong is a huge target in a fight, so he hates crowds. When he's in the fray, his Giant Punch deals serious damage to multiple opponents. The big ape's Headbutt hits so hard that it temporarily buries opponent's in the ground. DK is a lot faster than he looks, and he's lethal in the hands of a master.
6	Donkey Kong [Smash] (All-Star)	File:Trophy6.PNG	Up & : Spinning Kong Down & : Hand Slap	Being the strongest simian around, DK has the upper hand once he grabs an opponent. He can even lift his foe up and make him or her an unwilling traveling companion; if DK grabs you, shake your Control Stick as fast as you can to break his grip. His Spinning Kong covers more lateral distance than vertical, so use it quickly to recover.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl

• Website bio: "It’s Donkey Kong, ruler of the jungle. The original giant powerhouse makes a triumphant return! Looks like his giant punch is still the haymaker you remember. Don’t doubt his strength or you’ll end up with the ultimate headache!"
• Instruction Booklet bio: "The large king of the jungle. He moves with surprising agility."

Snake's Codec

• Snake: Otacon, there's a gorilla wearing a tie here. He's huge.
• Otacon: That's Donkey Kong. As you can tell, he's got strength to spare. He may be king of the jungle, but he lives in a house just like you or me. And he seems pretty smart--well, for an ape, anyway. The Donkey Kong who fought that epic battle with Mario was this guy's grandfather.
• Snake: That was a long time ago. What about this Donkey Kong? Does he get along with Mario?
• Otacon: Nope, they're still at it. Seems like they're always competing in something--kart racing, sports, you name it.
• Snake: A chip off the old block....

Trophies

#	Name	Image	Appearance(s)	Description
3	Donkey Kong		SNES Donkey Kong Country N64 Donkey Kong 64	A carefree jungle dweller with the charisma of a natural leader. He keeps busy by foiling the plans of the Kremlings and their boss, King K. Rool. As his physique suggests, this ape is a powerhouse. He's got speed to match too, and his love for bananas is second to none. His famous necktie is adorned with his initials, DK.
4	Konga Beat		WII Super Smash Bros. Brawl	DK about to go to town with some bongos! His performance is so magnificent and upbeat that it creates damage-inducing sound waves. Press the buttons in time to the music, and the sound waves may grow stronger. DK's invulnerable when launching this attack, but he's also immobile, so be careful using it on scrolling stages.

Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U

Trophies (Both Versions)

Name	Image	Appears In	Description
Donkey Kong		SNES Donkey Kong Country (11/1994) Wii Donkey Kong Country Returns (11/2010)	This king of the jungle really, really loves bananas. His adventures start with people stealing his hoard of them. In Smash Bros., he's known for his incredible strength and long reach. Despite his size, he's still pretty quick. He can even jump carrying heavy items! Use this knowledge well.
Donkey Kong (Alt.)		N/A	Donkey Kong pulls no punches when it comes to fighting. Or headbutts, as it turns out. His Headbutt special move will bury anyone on the ground who gets hit, leaving them open to serious damage. If Donkey Kong strikes an airborne foe with this move, they'll go crashing downward.

Trophies (3DS version)

Name	Image	Description
Donkey Kong + Barrel Train		This mean machine may look like it was meant for the tracks, but really it was made to soar. That fine wood finish isn't so great in the water, though. I bet more than a few players have fond memories of the Barrel Train and its first driver, Diddy Kong.

Trophies (Wii U version)

Name	Image	Description
Konga Beat		In this Final Smash, DK drums on a set of bongos, just like in the Donkey Konga games. Press the attack button in rhythm with the circles to boost the attack's range and power. Enemy attacks won't affect you, but you can't move, either. Auto-scrolling stages will slow down but won't stop - don't get too carried away in the beat!

|-=====Palutena's Guidance=====

• Pit: Looks like it's me versus DK.
• Palutena: His arms are like tree trunks, so his attacks are incredibly powerful. Given his size, he also moves quite quickly. Combine that speed and power with his long reach, and you've got an opponent who's good at almost everything!
• Pit: Yeah...except for dressing himself. That necktie really doesn't leave much to the imagination.
• Palutena: True, but it is his signature look. It's probably best not to mention it.
• Viridi: Yeah, you wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of one of his Giant Punches or smash attacks! When he attacks you, don't use your shield. Just get out of the way, and then counterattack.
• Palutena: And watch where you come in for a landing!
