'''Klomps'''<ref name=manual>''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]]''.

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]]''.

===''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]]."

In ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]'', Klomps behave identically as in ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest''. Just as before, Klomps appear in many levels:
