'''Blue Finleys'''<ref>von Esmarch, Nick, and Cory van Grier. ''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. Page 12.</ref> are light-blue fish enemies and members of the [[Finley]] family in ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]'' and its Nintendo Switch [[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (Nintendo Switch)|port]]. They appear in many [[level]]s, usually those that primarily occur underwater or at seaside. Blue Finleys first appear in the first level, [[Mangrove Cove]], as the very first enemy encountered by [[Donkey Kong]] on his adventure.

==Description==

Blue Finleys can be found solitary or in groups. They swim around in a variety of patterns, as shown in [[Deep Keep]], without trying to target the [[Kong]]s. If the Kongs swim into a Blue Finley, it bites them and takes away a [[Heart (item)#Donkey Kong franchise|Heart]]. A Blue Finley can be defeated by either the [[Corkscrew (Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze)|Corkscrew]] move or a cane attack by [[Cranky Kong]].

In [[Rocket Rails]], Blue Finleys demonstrate the ability to swim in midair. The playable [[Kong]] can defeat a Blue Finley by [[stomp]]ing on it. Blue Finleys may also serve as improvised platforms to get across wide chasms; one of the level's [[Puzzle Piece (Donkey Kong Country series)|Puzzle Piece]]s can be collected only by jumping on a Blue Finley.
