'''Bramble''' is a botanist and a member of the [[Brothers Bear]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' He dwells in [[Bramble's Bungalow|a bungalow]] in the [[Northern Kremisphere]] world map, near [[Cotton Top Cove]], where he studies rare species of flowers. Bramble is named after the {{wp|bramble|bramble plant}}, which is a type of rose plant.
'''Bramble''', named '''Bellamy''' in European manuals,<ref>{{media link|DKC3 Bellamy ref.jpg|''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!'' British instruction manual}}</ref> is a botanist and a member of the [[Brothers Bear]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' He lives in his own [[Bramble's Bungalow|bungalow]] in the [[Northern Kremisphere]] map, where he studies rare species of flowers. Bramble claims to have once been in [[Mekanos]] but moved out from the location when it became overrun by factories and industrial pollution. Bramble, like many other Brothers Bear, is in possession of a [[Banana Bird]], whose abilities he has finished studying and is willing to part with. [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] or [[Kiddy Kong]] can obtain the Banana Bird by trading the [[Flupperius Petallus Pongus]] with Bramble. If the [[Kong]]s visit Bramble prior to completing Mekanos, he requests them to shut off the machines so that his plants can grow again. By the time that the Kongs complete [[Razor Ridge]], a Flupperius Petallus Pongus grows on a dead-end path adjacent to his bungalow. The Kongs can pick it up and give it Bramble, who then rewards them with a Banana Bird.


==History==
Bramble is named after a type of rose plant, a {{wp|bramble|bramble plant}}. His alternate name, Bellamy, was likely taken from the English botanist, {{wp|David Bellamy}}, and it still ended up becoming his Japanese name.

Bramble claims to have once been in [[Mekanos]] but moved out from the location when it became overrun by factories and industrial pollution. If the [[Kong]]s visit Bramble prior to completing Mekanos, he requests them to shut off the machines so that his plants can grow again. By the time that the Kongs complete [[Razor Ridge]], a Flupperius Petallus Pongus grows on a dead-end path adjacent to his bungalow. The Kongs can pick it up and give it Bramble, who then rewards them with a Banana Bird.
In the [[Donkey Kong Country 3 (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance version]], Bramble's role was slightly altered because the Flupperius Petallus Pongus instead has to be received from [[Bachelor]]. When it is given to Bramble, he exchanges a [[rose]] for it. Bramble now only gives his Banana Bird to the Kongs after they complete Mekanos.
 
In the [[Game Boy Advance]] remake of the game, Bramble's role was slightly altered, as the Kongs must obtain the Flupperius Petallus Pongus in a different way. To obtain it, the Kongs must visit [[Bachelor]], who has no use for the flower. They can give the Flupperius Petallus Pongus to Bramble, who exchanges a [[rose]] for it rather than a Banana Bird. While Bramble still has a Banana Bird, he only gives it to the Kongs after they complete Mekanos.
