'''Rattle Battle''' is the fourteenth level of ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' and the fourth level of [[Krem Quay]].


The level takes place on the deck of [[Glimmer's Galleon]]. The Kongs discover an [[Animal Barrel]] here containing [[Rattly the Rattlesnake]], who must be played as throughout almost the whole level. Rattly's jumping skills prove useful here, as they are required to cross large pits and to reach highly-placed items. [[Kannon]]s, [[Zinger]]s and [[Flitter]]s can be found here, as well as [[Kaboing]]s, who populate much of the stage. As with most ship levels, there are several large barrels across the level that the heroes can climb on top of.

The level begins on a ship deck under a hidden [[Auto Fire Barrel]] that can shoot the heroes into the air and onto a high section of the ship that contains a [[Banana Coin]], a [[Banana Bunch]], and a [[Bonus Barrel]]. Across from the level's start, there is an entryway that leads into part of the ship. Here, the Kongs can find an Animal Barrel with a trio of bananas under it. If they enter the barrel, they turn into Rattly, who must proceed by heading through the nearby entryway on the end of the room. After traveling through the opening, the rattlesnake finds himself outside on the ship deck again. Above him, there is a [[DK Barrel]] with a few bananas around it. A pile of two large barrels is also ahead, but a Kaboing bounces in front of it. If Rattly reaches the top of these barrels, he can collect the [[K-O-N-G Letters|letter K]] that is placed on top of them. After passing some bananas that float in the air, Rattly makes his way up a small stairway and to a pair of Kaboings that jump in front of a large barrel. He can use this barrel to help him cross a small pit nearby. On the other side of this pit, there is another Kaboing and a lone Banana Bunch. A pit is also ahead of here with a Flitter flying above it. The enemy can be bounced on to help the rattlesnake cross the pit, even though Rattly's jumping abilities can also allow him to cross the pit with a single jump.

*An arrangement of the background music for this level appears as a track in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''.
[[File:Rattle Battle DKC2 GBA.png|thumb|Rattly exiting from the room where the Kongs transform into him in the Game Boy Advance version]]
*At the start of the level, the room where the Kongs transform into Rattly has an identical background to the cabin from [[Pirate Panic (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Pirate Panic]], which has K. Rool's ransom note. Its only difference is the green sky in the background. In the Game Boy Advance version, the room also has a green tint unlike Pirate Panic's cabin.
*An arrangement of the level's theme "Snakey Chantey" appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''.
