'''Gordos'''<ref>von Esmarch, Nick, and Cory van Grier. ''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. Page 13.</ref> are marine enemies that appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]'' and its Nintendo Switch [[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (Nintendo Switch)|port]]. They are violet with light-blue fins and have a round, flattened body, making them similar to {{wp|coral reef fish}}. They also bear a frowning mouth.
'''Gordos'''<ref>von Esmarch, Nick, and Cory van Grier. ''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze'' [[Prima Games|Prima]] Official Game Guide. Page 13.</ref> are submerged fish enemies which appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]''. Their laterally flattened bodies make them resemble [[wikipedia:Coral reef fish|coral reef fish]], but their frowny mouths seem more like those of basses. Most of a Gordo's body is violet in color, while its ventral area has a lighter tint.


Gordos swim passively and slowly, either from side to side or in circles. Bumping into one causes it to make a twirling movement and damage the [[Kong]]s. They are tougher than [[Finley]]s, requiring three [[Corkscrew (Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze)|Corkscrew]] attacks or three cane swipes from [[Cranky Kong]] to defeat them.
With each of them possessing small fins and displaying a careless figure, Gordos always swim from side to side in a relaxed manner, without any manifested intention to hurt the [[Kong]]s. They can be dangerous nevertheless, as a mere bump into them can actually grant damage to the player-controlled heroes. Gordos twirl quickly when defending themselves, and due to their large and solid constitution, Gordos are tougher to beat than [[Finley]]s, for example, as three [[Corkscrew (Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze)|Corkscrew]] attacks are required to defeat each of them. A single cane swipe from [[Cranky Kong]] can alternatively put an early end to these foes.


Gordos mostly inhabit marine environments, such as those of [[Lost Mangroves]] and [[Sea Breeze Cove]]. However, a small number of them appear floating in mid-air in the [[Rocket Rails]] stage, where they once again act as obstacles for the Kongs, who ride in a [[Mine Cart]]. While in the Mine Cart, the Kongs can defeat a Gordo with a single stomp or by simply crashing into it, though the latter will also damage them.
Gordos can be found consistently in several parts of the game, which include marine environments. This said, they inhabit [[world]]s like [[Lost Mangroves]] and [[Sea Breeze Cove]]; some Gordos are literally floating in mid-air within the [[Rocket Rails]] stage, where they impede the Kongs' [[minecart]] ride, whilst being vulnerable to crashes or stomps.
