A typical Klomp with peg leg and sailor pants.

Klomps were the main Kremling grunts employed by Kaptain K. Rool and his Kremling Krew during the events of Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest. These soldiers were spread throughout Crocodile Isle, the home island of the Kremling race. Diddy and Dixie Kong defeated many Klomps during their attempt to save the kidnapped Donkey Kong from Kaptain K. Rool. Like many other members of the Kremling Krew during this time, Klomps donned pirate regalia (specifically sailor pants and a peg leg) like their leader Kaptain K. Rool (the pirate alias of King K. Rool).

Klomps are very weak, as they can be destroyed by any attack, including simple jumping and rolling attacks. These pirate soldiers could only attack by marching into a Kong, hurting the ape on impact. Klomps tended to patrol a small area individually or in small groups, although in either case they were not much of a threat to Diddy and Dixie.

Klomps reappeared in Donkey Kong Land 2, along with a resurrected Crocodile Isle. They fulfilled the same purpose in the Kremling Krew as in the previous adventure, and they could be defeated in the same ways.

Klomps fulfilled the same role as Kritters from Donkey Kong Country and Donkey Kong Land. In fact, Klomps look almost exactly like Kritters, the notable difference being the former's pirate regalia. Additionally, Klomps appear to be heavily scarred, implying they may have been regular Kritters who have served in many battles, perhaps in the battles against Donkey Kong during the events of Donkey Kong Country and Donkey Kong Land. However, Klomps have some notable differences from Kritters. For example, Klomps only have green skin, while Kritters came in many different colors. Also, Klomps cannot jump like some Kritters can. Kaboings instead possess this ability (although Kaboings themselves appear to simply be Klomps with two peg legs, instead of just one).

Klomps were in turn replaced by Kobbles in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! and Donkey Kong Land III. The most recent appearance of Klomps has been in Donkey Konga 2.
