'''Klaptraps''' ({{ja|クラップトラップ| Kurapputorappu}}, ''Klaptrap'') are crocodile-esque [[enemy|enemies]] from the {{uv|Donkey Kong}} universe that appear in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', {{for3ds}}, and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. | |||
''' | ==Origin== | ||
Klaptraps are {{s|mariowiki|Kremling}}s who debuted in ''{{s|mariowiki|Donkey Kong Country}}''. They damage [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] by biting them. They appear in a variety of colors: blue, red, purple, and green. Klaptraps later appears in ''{{s|mariowiki|Donkey Kong 64}}'' with a similar role. Larger Klaptraps also appear in the game. Klaptraps are among the smallest varieties of the Kremlings and are one of the few that are entirely quadrupedal. The only similar varieties are the {{s|mariowiki|Krimp}}s, as well as the {{s|mariowiki|Snapjaw}}s, which are technically not Kremlings. | |||

Klaptrap appears on the [[Jungle Japes]] and [[Kongo Falls|Kongo Jungle]] stages, leaping out of the water to bite opponents. Klaptraps appear in two different colors: | |||
Klaptraps | *Orange Klaptraps appear in Kongo Jungle. They jump out from the waterfall near the edges of the stone ledge and near the [[Barrel Cannon]]s. If a character makes contact with a Klaptrap, they will take damage. Very rarely a Klaptrap will get stuck in the Barrel Cannon, and characters cannot use the Barrel Cannon while one is inside of it; they instead only take damage from contact with that Klaptrap. | ||
*Blue Klaptraps appear in Jungle Japes. They jump between the opening on either side of the middle section of the stage. If a character makes contact with a Klaptrap, they will take 30% damage and be [[spike]]d, sending characters straight into Jungle Japes' torrential waters. They essentially serve as [[one-hit KO]]s in ''Melee''. Characters holding on to a [[ledge]] are also vulnerable to a Klaptrap. They appear every 7-18 seconds (counting the 6 seconds it takes for the to go from one side to the other). | |||
{{Donkey Kong}} | Klaptraps do not come out of [[container]]s like other enemies do. They can however be used as regular [[item]]s in the [[TEST]] stage using an [[Action Replay]] or other hacking device. Klaptraps are invulnerable and cannot be damaged, unlike other enemies. | ||

If a character makes contact with a Klaptrap, they will be [[meteor smash]]ed. It can no longer [[one-hit KO]] like in the previous game (in part due to the newly introduced [[swimming]] greatly reducing downward speed), but it still deals a lot of damage and knockback. | |||

Klaptrap appears in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' as an [[Assist Trophy]]. Once summoned, it runs around the stage and latches onto any opponent it touches. Once latched, it bites down, doing repetitive damage similar to the [[Fan]]. As with most Assist Trophies in Ultimate, it can be KO'd. Its function, as described in [[Training Mode]], is that it "leaps up on opponents and bites down with sharp fangs." They cannot be summoned on [[Jungle Japes]], [[Kongo Falls]], and [[Suzaku Castle]], the former two due to them appearing as hazards. | |||

Klaptrap appears in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate as an Assist Trophy. Once summoned, it runs around the stage and latches onto any opponent it touches. Once latched, it bites down, doing repetitive damage similar to the Fan. As with most Assist Trophies in Ultimate, it can be KO'd. Its function, as described in Training Mode, is that it "leaps up on opponents and bites down with sharp fangs." They cannot be summoned on Jungle Japes, Kongo Falls, and Suzaku Castle, the former two due to them appearing as hazards.
