'''Flitters''', also referred to as '''Dragonflies''',<ref>''Nintendo Magazine System'' (AU) Issue #34, {{media link|NMS AUS issue 34 page 20 excerpt.jpg|page 20}}.</ref> are large, blue {{wp|dragonfly}} enemies which first appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]''.

==History==

===''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest''===

[[File:DK2Flitter.jpg|thumb|left|180px]]

In ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'', Flitters are basic, airborne enemies which [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] and [[Dixie Kong]] can easily defeat by either jumping on it, throwing a projectile at it, or while using an [[Invincibility Barrel]]. Flitters always remain afloat in the air; some Flitters remain in their current position, other ones fly endlessly to the left, and few even circle around an item they are guarding. Flitters act the same as [[Necky]]s from ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'' and [[Hogwash the Flying Pig|Hogwash]]es from ''[[Donkey Kong Land]]''.

In ''[[DK: King of Swing]]'' and ''[[DK: Jungle Climber]]'', a charge attack or a Going Bananas move can defeat a Flitter, as jumping on it is ineffective.
