Pinchlys first appear in the [[Beach]] area, the third level of the [[Ruins]] area, [[Mast Blast]], and later in the [[Cliff]] area. Pinchlys move from side to side, and can only hurt [[Donkey Kong]] or [[Diddy Kong]] if they come in contact with them. In addition, they move quicker than their weaker variant, the [[Snaps]]. To defeat a Pinchly, the [[Kong]]s have to bounce on its head, and then [[Ground Pound]] the area next to it when its claws are up. This will flip it over, and it will be vulnerable to a jump.

Template:Species-infobox Pinchlys[1][2] are enemies that first appeared in the game Donkey Kong Country Returns. They are basic red crabs wearing a blue and white bandanna.

Pinchlys first appear in the Beach area, the third level of the Ruins area, Mast Blast, and later in the Cliff area. Pinchlys move from side to side, and can only hurt Donkey Kong or Diddy Kong if they come in contact with them. In addition, they move quicker than their weaker variant, the Snaps. To defeat a Pinchly, the Kongs have to bounce on its head, and then Ground Pound the area next to it when its claws are up. This flips it over, and it is vulnerable to a jump. They can also roll at them while their claws are up to defeat them.
