Kobble

Kobbles are basic, green Kremlings that were used as the soldier grunts of the Kremling Krew, they replaced the Kritters and Klomps of Donkey Kong Country and Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest respectively.

Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble
During the events of Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble Kobbles can be easily defeated by any type of attack, and although they look somewhat strongly built, they are not a real threat. Despite being the generic soldier-type, Kobbles were very uncommon in the game (they only appeared in the levels, Lakeside Limbo, Kreeping Klasps, and Tidal Trouble).

Donkey Kong Land III
In this game Kobbles behaved identically to the way they did in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble, although in this game they were a far more common enemy, and due to limitations were black and white and made a slight drone noise when defeated instead of the regular Kremling cry of defeat. Kobbles also returned in the remake of Donkey Kong Land III- Donkey Kong GB: Dinky Kong and Dixie Kong.

Donkey Kong Country 3 (GBA)
In the remake of the original Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble Kobbles return and play the exact same role, they however now have a different voice when defeated is a more high-pitched and whiny one, which it shares with the Kritters and Klomps of the GBA remakes. Oddly, at the end a Kobble is seen in Dixie Kong's Photo Album in a Mill despite never appearing in one in the game.

Trivia

 * According to the game's credits, Kobbles belong to the "Kremling Kreeps" enemy class.
 * Unlike their Kritter cousins, Kobbles do not wear clothing of any kind (except for the ring that pierces their lower lips)
