'''Trench | '''Trench Tuckses''' are shielded [[Snowmad]] enemies in ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]''. As members of the [[Tucks]] platoon in the [[Snowmad]] army, they physically resemble penguins. As stated before, they are characterized by their rigid shields, which they wield as instruments of defence against the Kongs, hence their "trench" attribute. | ||

Trench | Trench Tuckses are largely similar to [[Pointy Tucks]]es, in that they wear large, sharply horned-helmets, as well as leather laces around their necks, with each hanging a Snowmad insignia that lodges on the penguins' chests. However, unlike Pointy Tuckses, Trench Tuckses possess circular wooden shields, which they use as means of protection against the Kongs. | ||

Trench | Trench Tuckses defend their frontal sides with rigid wooden shields. With these, the enemies can reject every [[Roll Attack|roll attack]] coming from the [[Kong]]s, pushing the primates behind a bit. The powerful impact into the shield also sends the enemy back a few spaces; however, it can never be driven off the edge of a platform. Like Pointy Tucks, Trench Tuckses are dangerous to step on, as they sport spiky long horns thrusted in their helmets and pointing upwards. As such, jumping on a Pointy Tucks causes the heroes to lose a [[heart]] from their health meter. | ||
The Kongs alone can only attack a Trench | The Kongs alone can only attack a Trench Tucks from behind, with a roll. Another way to defeat a Trench Tucks is by [[Ground Pound|pounding the ground]] near it, action that makes it dizzy; the enemy subsequently drops its shield and leaves its front side open for a roll attack. However, the foe stays confused only temporarily, before rising up and picking up its shield. Alternatively, a Trench Tucks can be defeated by throwing a projectile at it, or by ramming into it with [[Rambi the Rhino]], who can surpass its shield. [[Cranky Kong]]'s [[Cane Bounce]]s are also effective against Trench Tuckses. If shot by a [[popgun]], a Trench Tuck gets stunned for a split second while reinforcing itself with the shield. | ||
Trench | Trench Tuckses are most commonly found in levels that contain Rambi; that is, [[Frantic Fields]] and [[Meltdown Mayhem]]. One Trench Tucks can be found at the end of [[Rickety Rafters]]. | ||
