[[Image:MonkeyFlip.jpg|thumb|'''Monkey Flip''' being used.]] Monkey Flip is [[Diddy Kong|Diddy Kong's]] Side Special Move in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]. Diddy Kong leaps forward towards the enemy, latches onto them, and begins attacking. B can be used to pummel while latched on, and A can be used to push off of them, knocking them away. As this sends Diddy forward, it can be used in addition to his Up-B recovery as it does not put Diddy into Helpless state afterwards. If Diddy pressed A while performing this move, he sticks a foot out, and will kick the opponent instead of latching on. However, this kick will prevent you from using his Up-B until the next time he lands. By pressing the jump button after latching onto an enemy, you jump onto their head and push them downwards which performs a spike. The Monkey Flip can also set up a 'Diddycide'.

'''Monkey Flip''' is a move used by [[Diddy Kong]] in the ''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros.]]'' series. It is used by pressing {{button|gcn|B}} while tilting {{button|gcn|Stick}} to the side. Once activated, Diddy Kong backflips forward, towards the opponent, latches onto the opponent and starts pummeling them, and then either hits them, or jumps off them. Diddy Kong can also kick through the somersault, as a means of defense. The distance traveled can be changed depending on whether the Control Stick and special move button are pressed simultaneously or not.


In ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' / ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U|Wii U]]'', the move has two variants: '''Back Flip''' and '''Flying Monkey Flip'''. Back Flip allows Diddy Kong to leap backwards instead of forward and perform a stronger kick, but does not grab opponents, and Flying Monkey Flip allows Diddy Kong to jump higher with a strong jump attack, but has a weaker kick and grab attack.
