[[File:VSSmokey-DKR-N64.jpg|thumb|200px|left|[[Tiptup]] races against '''Smokey'''.]]
'''Smokey the Dragon''' is the fourth boss in ''[[Diddy Kong Racing]]'' and its [[reissue|remake]], ''[[Diddy Kong Racing DS]]''. His body is colored orange with a yellow belly, face, and feet, and his eyes are green. The player races him at the end of [[Dragon Forest]] in his own stage, [[Smokey's Course]]. He speaks with a Northern Irish accent. Smokey has a challenge level named after him named [[Smokey Castle]].
'''Smokey the Dragon''' is one of the boss racers on [[Timber's Island]]. During the events of ''[[Diddy Kong Racing]]'', Smokey is brainwashed  by [[Wizpig]] and entrusted with a piece of Wizpig's amulet. Smokey allows someone to race him if all of the challenges on his area, [[Dragon Forest]], are beaten. During his race, Smokey leaves behind puffs of fire which can cause the player to briefly lose speed of his or her airplane. If Smokey is defeated, he allows access to Dragon Forest's [[Silver Coin]] challenges.


If all the Silver Coin challenges of Dragon Forest are beaten, players can re-race Smokey. In this rematch, Smokey flies much faster, and he also produces much more fireballs this time around. When Smokey is defeated once again, he breaks free of Wizpig's control and award the one who freed him with the piece of Wizpig's amulet he was charged with guarding.
Smokey was brainwashed by [[Wizpig]] and guards the fourth piece of [[Wizpig amulet|his amulet]]. The player races Smokey after they complete every race in Dragon Forest. The boss race is aerial, as Smokey flies while the player rides in a [[Plane]]. Smokey attacks the player by leaving behind puffs of fire that slow them down. When the player completes the first match against Smokey, he challenges them to complete the four [[Silver Coin|Silver Coin Challenge]]s (or [[Balloon Touch Challenge]] in the DS remake).


Smokey also appears in ''Diddy Kong Racing's'' end-of-game celebration after the defeat of Wizpig.
The player can rematch Smokey after completing every Silver Coin or Balloon Touch Challenge. Like the previous bosses, Smokey's difficulty is increased for the rematch: he flies faster and produces twice the number of fireballs. After the player wins the race, Smokey is freed from Wizpig's control and gives players the final piece of the Wizpig amulet. He is present in the game's ending where he celebrates with the other characters.
 
Like most characters, Smokey's voice is changed for ''Diddy Kong Racing DS''. The boss race's difficulty was decreased, as he does not produce any fireballs on the first match and only a few on the second one.
