Cranky's Dojo

Cranky's Dojo is a school where Cranky Kong trains himself in the Game Boy Advance remake of Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!. Cranky's Dojo can be found in every area of the Northern Kremisphere except for the main overworld, taking the place of where Wrinkly's Save Cave could be found in the Super Nintendo version of the game.

At the Dojo, Cranky Kong is training himself for his upcoming game Cranky Kong Country. If Dixie and Kiddy Kong drop by, they can assist Cranky in a round of training. Playing as Cranky, the player must utilize a shield to protect Cranky against an ambush of thirty Bristles. As the Bristles bounce towards Cranky, he must aim his shield at them to deflect their attacks. If Cranky can deflect all thirty Bristles, he will reward the Kongs with several Bananas, a Bear Coin, an Extra Life Balloon and the first time he clears it, a Banana Bird.

Cranky's Dojo does not exist in the Super Nintendo version of the game. Instead, Cranky can be found competing against the Kongs at Swanky's Sideshow.
