hmmm... Wikipedia says he's his "little nephew wannabe", whatever that means. Also, how can a gorilla be related to a chimpanzee? Different species.{{User:Knife/sig}} 16:16, 26 July 2007 (EDT)

Does anyone have access to the Donkey Kong Country manual, preferably the original? It might have something that could settle this debate once and for all in it. -- [[User: Sir Grodus|Sir Grodus]]

Diddy Kong is DK's nephew, "little buddy", and his sidekick in the games. They are both apes however, so they can be related. [[wikipedia:Ape|This article]] says that gorillas and chimpanzees are part of the same family, making it possible for them to be related. {{User:Stooben Rooben/sig|What's with all the monkey-business?}}

:Diddy can't be a chimpanzee nor another sort of ape. Apes don't have tails, or at least no tails as long as Diddy's, so Diddy is a monkey. I wonder why he is called Donkey's "nephew". --[[User:Grandy02|Grandy02]] 10:27, 1 June 2008 (EDT)

There's no evidence that Diddy is DK's nephew in the video games. Maybe DK is Diddy's "uncle in arms" or something.{{User|SavedPrincess}}

Nephew or friend?

Is Diddy Kong Donkey Kong's friend or nephew? Knife (talk) 16:10, 26 July 2007 (EDT)

I'm pretty sure hes his Nephew, I could be wrong though. Mario riding YoshiXzelionETC

Diddy can't be a chimpanzee nor another sort of ape. Apes don't have tails, or at least no tails as long as Diddy's, so Diddy is a monkey. I wonder why he is called Donkey's "nephew". --Grandy02 10:27, 1 June 2008 (EDT)
It wouldn't be the strangest thing for two species to be in the same family. Think of Peach: in Super Mario RPG she has relatives who are Toads. Anyway, what we need is a quote regarding their relationship rather than speculation over whether it's possible in the real world. I used to try that but it gets you nowhere... trust me. :( Stumpers! 21:30, 1 June 2008 (EDT)
There's no evidence that Diddy is DK's nephew in the video games. Maybe DK is Diddy's "uncle in arms" or something. SavedPrincess (talk)
Someone included this as a reference for him being a nephew, but we can't access it, so it shouldn't be included. Tyciol 19:35, 15 January 2012 (EST)
The species have nothing to do with relation. For all we know they just were lazy to think about this kind of thing. Breakdancemario.gifM64FanBreakdancemario.gif
THEY'RE KONGS! They aren't apes, monkeys, chimps, etc. They are just Kongs.
The preceding unsigned comment was added by Doddfather (talk).
Actually I would say that 'kong' would be the name of a simian subspecies that includes both apes (donkey) and monkeys (diddy). Tyciol 19:35, 15 January 2012 (EST)

Finished Wikifying?

Since there's no tags on the article, is this article done being SMWikified? — Stooben Rooben If Diddy sang, would he sing a ditty?

Remove/ Re-Write Mario And Sonic At the Olimpic Winter Games Category?

All it says is "Diddy Kong Will Appear in This thriling sequel." Should we delete that? All I heard about was that Donkey Kong Will be in that game. Mariofan459Mario's side.gif

Yes, unconfirmed data should be deleted.--Knife (talk) 14:55, 28 September 2009 (EDT)

Dixie

Wait... if Diddy is Donkeys nephew and donkey is dixies cousin wouldnt that make dixie related to diddy? - Charmander.pngIts-a-meYoshi!Vapereon.png

Dixie's page says that she is is Diddy's best friend. R.O.B.Remembered Old BuddyROBSSB4EN.png

Where does it say Donkey and Dixie are cousins? Dixie is cousins with Chunky and Kiddy. But if Diddy is Donkey's nephew, and DK Jr. is the real DK's kid, that means that Diddy and DK Jr. are cousins!--DKPetey99DKPetey99TCE
