In the transition from ''Melee'' to ''Brawl'', Donkey Kong was heavily buffed overall. He has been improved in several aspects, including his mobility, endurance potential, power, recovery, and range.  
In the transition from ''Melee'' to ''Brawl'', Donkey Kong was heavily buffed overall. He has been improved in several aspects, including his mobility, endurance potential, power, recovery, and range.


One noticeable nerf he received was to his grounded [[Spinning Kong]]. The hitbox grounded Spinning Kong once possessed which came out on frame 2-5, had invincibility and could kill opponents under 100% was completely removed completely hindering grounded Spinning Kong's utility (although he does now have the "[https://youtu.be/O3CmvJM-Rq8 Invincicopter]" to give his grounded Spinning Kong some new utility). Besides the change to his grounded Spinning Kong, Donkey Kong did not receive any other significant nerfs to his moveset.

Overall, DK is a stronger character than he was in ''Melee'' although he still struggles against much of the cast.

It also greatly benefits from the introduction of [[reverse aerial rush]] significantly improving its approach potential.}}

**{{buff|Giant Punch now has [[armor]] when fully charged, it charges faster and it can now be reversed, but reversing it does not increase damage or knockback, unlike [[Falcon Punch]] and [[Warlock Punch]].

Additionally, the aerial variant deals less damage (12% → 8% (back uncharged), 6% (front uncharged), 17%/26% → 15%/25% (fully charged).
