'''Krumples''' are large, blue, and muscular members of the [[Kremling Krew]] who appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]''.

===''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!''===
Krumples are enemies in ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!''. Like most enemies, Krumples attack [[Dixie Kong]] and [[Kiddy Kong]] by simply moving into them. A Krumple can be defeated by a [[barrel]], a [[team up]] throw, being [[jump]]ed on by Kiddy, having [[Ellie]] spray water droplets at them in [[Tracker Barrel Trek]], and from [[Squitter]]'s web projectiles in [[Creepy Caverns]]. Krumples are unaffected by Kiddy's [[roll]], unless he performs it from high enough, or any of Dixie's attacks, and he will respond back by taunting the [[Kong]]s. In [[Dixie Kong's Photo Album]], a Krumple photograph appears under the [[Kremling Kreeps]] category. In the [[Donkey Kong Country 3 (Game Boy Advance)|remake]], the sound effects of Krumples are reused from Krunchas in the ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2 (Game Boy Advance)|Donkey Kong Country 2]]'' remake.

Krumples only appear in three levels of ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!'', [[Rocket Barrel Ride]], [[Tracker Barrel Trek]], and [[Creepy Caverns]]. Like most enemies, Krumples attack [[Dixie Kong]] and [[Kiddy Kong]] by simply moving into them. A Krumple can be defeated from either a [[barrel]], [[Team Up]], or by having Kiddy [[jump]] on them (just like how in the first game, only [[Donkey Kong]] can defeat blue [[Krusha]]s with a jump attack. In [[Tracker Barrel Trek]], [[Ellie the Elephant]] can defeat Krumples by spraying water at them, while in [[Creepy Cavern]]s, Krumples can be defeated by [[Squitter the Spider]]'s webs. Krumples are unaffected by Kiddy's [[roll]], unless he performs it from high enough, or any of Dixie's attacks, and he will respond back by taunting the [[Kong]]s.

History[edit]

Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble![edit]

Krumples are enemies in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!. Like most enemies, Krumples attack Dixie Kong and Kiddy Kong by simply moving into them. A Krumple can be defeated by a barrel, a team up throw, being jumped on by Kiddy, having Ellie spray water droplets at them in Tracker Barrel Trek, and from Squitter's web projectiles in Creepy Caverns. Krumples are unaffected by Kiddy's roll, unless he performs it from high enough, or any of Dixie's attacks, and he will respond back by taunting the Kongs. In Dixie Kong's Photo Album, a Krumple photograph appears under the Kremling Kreeps category. In the remake, the sound effects of Krumples are reused from Krunchas in the Donkey Kong Country 2 remake.

Donkey Kong Land III[edit]

Krumples are enemies in Donkey Kong Land III. They act the same as before, but appear in several more levels.

  • Krumple is mentioned in Kludge's Super Smash Bros. Brawl trophy, but only in American English versions.
