Pointy Tucks: Difference between revisions

A '''Pointy Tucks''' (also called '''Pointy Tuck''') is a variant of [[Tucks]] appearing in ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]'' and its Nintendo Switch [[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (Nintendo Switch)|port]]. They are penguin members of the [[Snowmad]]s, and they wear a golden viking helmet with large, sharp horns. In addition, they wear a leather collar with the Snowmad symbol. Compared to regular Tucks, Pointy Tucks appear to have a less crooked posture.

Pointy Tucks have a shielded variant known as [[Trench Tucks]]. [[Papa Painguin]]s are spear-wielding enemies with viking helmets akin to those worn by Pointy Tucks, protecting them in the same way.

Pointy Tucks are common enemies throughout the [[Kong]]s' adventure. They simply walk from side to side, as with a handful of other enemies. Pointy Tucks cannot be jumped on, as their sharp horns protects them from being jumped on and cause the Kongs to take damage. The Kongs can defeat a Pointy Tucks by attacking it with a [[Roll Attack|roll]], [[Rambi the Rhino|Rambi]], [[Cranky Kong]]'s [[Cane Bounce]], or an object such as a [[barrel]]. The enemy can be stunned briefly by shooting it with a [[popgun]] or by performing a [[Ground Pound|ground pound]] next to it.
