''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' and its [[Donkey Kong Country 2 (Game Boy Advance)|GameBoy Advance remake]] has Diddy play the leading role and introduces his girlfriend, [[Dixie Kong]]. In the game, Diddy retains his abilities from ''Donkey Kong Country'', though he is now the first player rather than the second, with Dixie now taking that role. Diddy and Dixie Kong can do a [[team up]] move, allowing one of the Kongs to pick each other up and throw another to get across obstacles or reach higher elevations. In the Game Boy Advance remake, Diddy appears in a time attack mode, [[Diddy's Dash]], where the player controls Diddy through individual levels without the aid of Dixie, similar to the Hero Mode from ''Donkey Kong Country''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s Game Boy Advance remake.

In the game's story, the Kremling Krew kidnaps Donkey Kong and sends him away to their island, [[Crocodile Isle]]. K. Rool, now Kaptain K. Rool, threatens to keep Donkey Kong as a prisoner unless the Kongs give the banana hoard to him. Diddy refuses, so he and Dixie travel through Crocodile Isle. Whenever the player visits the [[Monkey Museum]], Cranky chastises him and Dixie, believing them not to be actual video game heroes<ref>"Oh, it's you again. I thought it might be a real video game hero..." – [[Cranky Kong]].
