== History ==
===''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble''===
In ''Donkey Kong Country 3'' Knockas are fairly common enemies, encountered in a large amount of levels. Knockas have an attack pattern similar to an earlier enemy named [[Klobber]]; a Knocka will wait hidden in it's barrel, if either [[Dixie]] or [[Kiddy Kong]] pass by a Klobber will spring forth out of it's barrel and begin trying to ram the Kongs. Since a Klobber cannot directly hurt a Kong they will try and ram them into either another enemy or an abyss.

A Knocka can be defeated by simply jumping on it, this will knock it back into it's barrel. Once back in it's [[barrel]] a Knocka can simply be picked up and thrown away. In later levels of ''Donkey Kong Country 3'' two barrel wearing sub-species of Knockas, [[Klasp]]s and [[Kuchuka]]s are encountered. Also in the Game Boy Advance remake of ''Donkey Kong Country 3'' an explosive version of Knockas, [[TNT Knocka]]s are encountered in one level of the game.

===''Donkey Kong Land III''===
In ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]'' Knockas, along with Klasps and Kuchukas, are still semi-common enemies. The game erroneously lists Knockas as [[Krusha]]s, however, yet aside from the name, there is no real difference between the Knockas of ''Donkey Kong Country 3'' and ''Donkey Kong Land III''.

Knockas return in this game, apart from the fact that they now have different voices, they are exactly the same as they are in the original ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble]]''.
