+==History==
+===''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest''===
+In ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'', Shuries appear in many underwater levels, starting with [[Lockjaw's Locker (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Lockjaw's Locker]]. There are two color variants, orange and pink, and they have slightly distinctive behavior. The orange Shuries spin through the water and bounce off the walls. The pink Shuries await [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] and [[Dixie Kong]] in a corner, and upon noticing them, the Shuri rapidly spins in the Kongs' direction. Like other enemies, if the [[Kong]]s get hit by Shuri, the player loses a Kong. Shuries can only be defeated by [[Enguarde the Swordfish]].
-Shuries first appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' as semi-common enemies in the game's various underwater levels. Shuries have two attack patterns. Pink Shuries wait for the [[Kong]]s to approach and then charge at them while spinning rapidly. On the other hand, the orange variety spin through the water and bounce off walls, damaging anything that gets too close. Shuries can only be defeated by [[Enguarde the Swordfish]].
+In the ending's Cast of Characters, Shuries appear under the [[Submerged Seadogs]] category.
-Shuries also appear in ''Donkey Kong Country 2''{{'}}s pseudo-sequel ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]''. In this game, their attack pattern is the same.
+===''Donkey Kong Land 2''===
+Shuries also appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]''. Due to the [[Game Boy]]'s monochromatic palette, Shuries do not appear in their color variants.
+{{stub|section=yes}}
-Shuries make another reappearance in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'', along with [[Scubi|a scuba-themed variety]]. In this game, Shuries are rare enemies only encountered in a few underwater areas. Their attack pattern is also similar to the orange variety of Shuri from ''Donkey Kong Country 2''. Shuries cannot be defeated in this game.
+===''Donkey Kong 64''===
+Shuries make another appearance in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]''. They are uncommon enemies who are only encountered in a few underwater areas. Shuries are larger than in their previous appearances. Only the orange Shuries reappear, and they were made slightly larger. The Shuries retain their attack patterns from ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest''. Shuris can no longer be defeated.
+The game introduces a purple variant of Shuri in scuba gear, named [[Scubi]].
+===''DK: King of Swing'' / ''DK: Jungle Climber''===
 Shuries also appear in ''[[DK: King of Swing]]'' and its sequel ''[[DK: Jungle Climber]]'', where their attack patterns still remain the same.
