'''Klomps'''<ref>''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' instruction booklet, [[Media:DKC2 Manual 28-29.jpg|page 28]].</ref> are 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]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]''. They wear red and white-striped boxers. These soldiers are spread throughout [[Crocodile Isle]], the home island of the Kremling race and are part of the "[[Kremling Kuthroats]]" enemy class. [[Diddy Kong]] and [[Dixie Kong]] defeat 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 (in this case, 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 defeated by any attack, including simple [[jump]]ing, [[Cartwheel Attack|cartwheel]] and [[Helicopter Spin|spin]] attacks. Klomps can only attack by marching into Diddy or Dixie, hurting them on impact. Klomps tend to patrol a small area individually but are often found in groups. They act the same in both ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' and ''Donkey Kong Land 2''. In ''Donkey Kong Country 2'', some Klomps appear underwater, such as in [[Glimmer's Galleon (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Glimmer's Galleon]], and can only be defeated by [[Enguarde the Swordfish]].
Klomps are the pirate counterparts of [[Kritter]]s from ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land]]''.<ref>WinkySteve (December 17, 2017). [https://x.com/WinkySteve/status/942523428606799874 ''X'']. Retrieved December 17, 2017.</ref> Unlike Kritters, Klomps are less hunched and only have a green coloration. In their artwork, Klomps appear to be heavily scarred, though they do not have this trait in-game. Klomps themselves would later replaced by [[Kobble]]s in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]''.


Klomps have the same behavior as [[Kritter]]s from ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land]]''. In fact, Klomps look almost exactly like Kritters, except that they are less hunched, only have a green coloration, and wear pirate clothing. In their artwork, Klomps appear to be heavily scarred, though they do not have this trait in-game.  
==History==
===''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest''===
In ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'', Klomps are encountered in many levels. A Klomp's only behavior involves it marching forward in a single direction and hurting [[Diddy Kong]] or [[Dixie Kong]] upon contact. Klomps tend to patrol a small area individually, though many of them appear in groups. Klomps are very weak, as they can be defeated by any attack, including simple [[jump]]ing, [[Cartwheel Attack|cartwheel]] and [[Helicopter Spin|spin]] attacks. Some Klomps appear underwater, such as in [[Glimmer's Galleon (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Glimmer's Galleon]], and can only be defeated by [[Enguarde]]. In the Cast of Characters, Klomps are classified as part of the "[[Kremling Kuthroats]]."


Klomps cannot jump like most of the colored Kritters can; instead, [[Kaboing]]s possess this ability (Kaboings themselves appear to be Klomps with two peg legs, instead of just one).
Klomps were replaced by [[Kobble]]s in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]''. Klomps also appear in ''[[Donkey Konga 2]]''.
