In ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'', Zingers have two color variants: regular yellow ones and the invincible, red ones, which are invincible. Zingers behave similarly as in ''Donkey Kong Country'', once again having varying flight patterns, and Zingers can now be defeated from more [[Animal Friends]] than in ''Donkey Kong Country'', including from [[Squawks]]' nuts, [[Squitter]]'s web projectiles, or being bounced onto by [[Rattly]]. In addition, Diddy and Dixie can defeat them directly if under the effect of an [[Invincibility Barrel]]. Zingers appear in most levels, some of which take place inside of a Zinger hive, with larval and pupal Zingers visible in the background. Most Zinger hives appear Krazy Kremland, reflected by how Zingers fly around the world on the [[Crocodile Isle]] map. A Zinger boss named [[King Zing]] is even fought at the end of Krazy Kremland, and late into his battle, King Zing shrinks to the size of a Zinger and summons several other small ones to guard him (just as Queen B. does in ''Donkey Kong Country''{{'}}s Game Boy Advance remake). Although Zingers are often described as wasps, a lot of honey appears in their hives. In the ending, Zingers are categorized within the [[Lazy Landlubbers]] enemy class. | In ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'', Zingers have two color variants: regular yellow ones and the invincible, red ones, which are invincible.

Zingers are enemies in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]''. They have one of two ways of attacking: In [[DK Isles]] and some of the earlier levels, Zingers dive-bomb at the active Kong on sight, while other Zingers instead drop unripe green [[Orange]]s upon noticing them. Zingers can be defeated from either being hit with ammo from a Kong's weapon, from the effects of a musical instrument move, or by throwing an Orange at it. Aside from DK Isles, Zingers also appear in [[Jungle Japes]], [[Angry Aztec]], [[Fungi Forest]] during the daytime (being replaced by [[Flipflap|Bat]]s at night), and [[Crystal Caves]]. [[Gloomy Galleon]] has only one Zinger, located inside of a mechanical fish. In Angry Aztec, if the player defeats a [[Zinger]] and its body falls into the sand, the body disappears in a burst of flames without releasing any [[Watermelon]] slice. Unlike the dive-bombing Zingers, the orange-dropping ones will generally respawn after defeating them. | |||
Zingers have a robotic variety named [[Mechanical Zinger]]s, which appear in [[Frantic Factory]], although regular Zingers do not. | |||

In ''[[Donkey Kong Barrel Blast]]'', Zingers were made larger than their previous appearances. They are enemies on the racetracks [[DK Jungle (Donkey Kong Barrel Blast)|DK Jungle]], [[DK Jungle Falls]], [[DK Jungle Sunset]], [[Scorching Canyon]] and [[Cranky's Temple]]. They fly around in a set pattern and can be defeated from one hit. They also appear in two of [[Candy's Challenges]], where [[Donkey Kong]] needs to beat a set amount of Zingers on the [[Training Course (Donkey Kong Barrel Blast)|Training Course]] before time expires. | In ''[[Donkey Kong Barrel Blast]]'', Zingers were made larger than their previous appearances.

There are a few items of Zingers in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]]. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', a Zinger is featured as a [[Sticker (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)|sticker]] that can be equipped by any character in [[smashwiki:Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary|The Subspace Emissary]], and doing so raises their resistance to slashing attacks (such as [[Link]]'s sword) by five points. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'', there is an unlockable Zinger [[Trophy (Super Smash Bros. series)|trophy]], randomly obtainable in one of the game's modes. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', there is a Novice-class Shield-type primary [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]] of Zinger with no support slots, and when used, it simply raises a fighter's power without granting any special effects. In the game's [[smashwiki:Adventure Mode: World of Light|World of Light]] mode, the spirit can be encountered on the [[smashwiki:DK Island (World of Light)|DK Island]] sub-world of the [[smashwiki:Light Realm|Light Realm]] map, on the [[Reptile Rumble]] spot. The spirit's [[smashwiki:False character|puppet fighter]], [[Pikachu]], has increased throw power, and he is fought on the omega form of [[The Great Cave Offensive]] stage, with [[Unira]] being the only items that spawn during the battle. A Zinger's core can be combined with a [[Princess Shroob]] core to summon [[wikirby:Queen Sectonia|Queen Sectonia]]'s spirit. | |||
The ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'' trophy description generalizes that yellow Zingers fly up and down while red Zingers fly in circles based on their behavior in ''Donkey Kong Country'', although ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' shows [[Bramble Scramble (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|some]] [[Screech's Sprint (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|exceptions]]. | The ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'' trophy description generalizes that yellow Zingers fly up and down while red Zingers fly in circles based on their behavior in ''Donkey Kong Country'', although ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' shows [[Bramble Scramble (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|some]] [[Screech's Sprint (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|exceptions]]. | ||

|desc=It'd be a ton of fun to ride on a Zinger, flying high up into the sky. Too bad they're covered in spikes and not all that friendly to begin with. Zingers come in different colors, with the yellow ones flying up and down and the red ones flying in circles. We don't want to spoil it, so you'll have to play to find out what the others do! | |||
|desc2=It'd be great if you could fly through the sky on a Zinger – too bad they're covered in spikes and far too nasty to let you. The yellow ones fly up and down while the red ones go round in circles. Want to know more? Go and check them out yourself, then. No promises you'll come back in one piece, though! | |||
