For the unmodded version of Diddy Kong, see Diddy Kong (SSBB).

Diddy Kong is a playable character in the Brawl mod Project M.

Diddy Kong received noticeable buffs from Brawl to PM to fit with the Melee physics.

Like Donkey Kong, his dash attack now can move off ledges, setting up offstage KOs.
The peanuts from Peanut Popgun now travel in straighter arcs and are much more powerful. A fully charged peanut can travel across the entire distance of Final Destination. Diddy can also air dodge out of his Peanut Popgun, allowing him to waveland between shots.
Monkey Flip had its distance increased. Pressing the attack or special attack button causes the attack to send opponents upward while pressing the jump button sends opponents downward.
Rocketbarrel Boost has its distance increased. Furthermore, Diddy has more control over both its arc and launch angle allowing for better and trickier recoveries. Its power has also been increased, making it a viable combo finisher.
His up taunt has been replaced with a juggling animation, possibly as a reference to his idle animation in Donkey Kong Country 2. Diddy will continue to juggle as long as the taunt button is held. His old up taunt is moved to his down taunt.
For his side taunt, he now leans his head forward and puts a hand in his mouth with a burly expression, as if trying to contain his laughter from a foe.
Original down taunt is now an idle pose.

Up to date as of [version].
