Article on Donkey Kong Wiki | King K. Rool |
King K. Rool (キングクルール, King K. Rool) is the main antagonist of the Donkey Kong universe.
In Super Smash Bros. Melee
King K. Rool appears as a trophy.
- The demented head of the Kremlings and big boss in the Donkey Kong series. K. Rool is a giant, greedy glutton with a serious eye tic. While he fits the evil boss mold nicely, he's just enough of a bumbler to have gained a few fans over the years. His plan to blow up the DK Isles with his Blast-o-Matic shows how unbalanced he is.
- Donkey Kong Country
- 11/94
In Super Smash Bros. Brawl
King K. Rool appears as both a trophy and a sticker.
As a trophy
The King K. Rool trophy is unlocked by clearing Target Smash level 4 with all characters.
- The supreme commander of the Kremling Krew. King K. Rool steal bananas from Donkey Kong and ends up kidnapping Diddy Kong. He is so good at playing dead that sometimes the credits even roll as he lies there, feigning defeat. His brother[sic], Kaptain K. Rool, made an appearance in the game Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest.

King K. Rool (DK64) |
In Super Smash Bros. 4
King K. Rool appears in two main roles.
As a trophy
The King K. Rool trophy appears in both versions.
NTSC: Whereas Mario often squares off against Bowser, Donkey Kong must fight against King K. Rool. He's a big croc with a big attitude...and a tiny crown. He probably could have been Donkey Kong's most trustworthy animal friend. Think he'll ever have a change of heart? Not likely.
PAL: This guy is to Donkey Kong what Bowser is to Mario. This crowned Kremling has a serious attitude problem. If only he could have been on of DK's Animal Friends instead... Maybe with just a little change of heart, he still could be! On second thoughts...nope. Never gonna happen.
As a costume
King K. Rool is the basis for a paid downloadable content costume for Mii Brawlers. The costume mixes elements from his pre-Rareware and post-Rareware designs.
Origin
King K. Rool is the leader of the Kremlings and the main antagonist of most games in the Donkey Kong series.
