Cactus King

The Cactus King was a giant Kong who ruled an unknown land. With a cactus-like object on the back of his head, The Cactus King appeared in Donkey Kong Jungle Beat after fighting Ninja Kong. Donkey Kong fought him, much differently than the previous battles, as the Cactus King was roughly four times his size. After collecting enough Crests, Donkey Kong traveled through what appeared to be the same level the Cactus King lived in. However, when Donkey Kong reached the end of the level, instead of the Cactus King, he found the Ghastly King. The Ghastly King, though, looked exactly like the Cactus King having no differences except for a few new moves. It is possible that the Cactus King and the Ghastly King were even the same being, but this is not confirmed.

Battle
At the beginning of the battle, Donkey Kong sees Cactus King on a giant Fire Butapoppo. Once the battle begins, the Hawg begins to breathe out fire. Donkey Kong must clap at the fire until he can approach the Fire Butapoppo. Then, he must clap on the Hawg and stun it. Next, Donkey Kong must jump and start attacking its snout. Once Donkey Kong has landed enough blows on the Hawg, Cactus King will jump and crush the Hawg. Donkey Kong must fight Cactus King by wall jumping at him, swinging his legs, or knocking him forward. If he is knocked down, the player can pound on him.

Trivia

 * At the very beginning of Cactus and Ghastly King's theme song is a remix of the song that played on the title screen of the original Donkey Kong.
