Crockoids[1] are an enemy type in Donkey Kong Bananza. They are golden, Kremling-like crocodylomorph fossils encased in material coverings resembling crocodilian heads. One type of Crockoid has a concrete shell and dirt fists. As concrete cannot be destroyed by Donkey Kong's normal attacks, the Crockoid must be defeated first by cracking its shell open with an explosion and, after the fossil is exposed, by a single punch.[1]
One bunch of Banandium Gems is named "First Crockoid Cracked!"[1]

Naming
Crockoids' name is a portmanteau of "crocodylomorph" or "crocodile", "rock", and the suffix "-oid", likely in reference to VoidCo.
