Punchy Paddies act similar to [[Frogoon]]s from ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'', where they remain in a single spot and [[jump]]. Instead of inflating themselves, Punchy Paddies use their wings to temporarily stay airborne before they slowly descend back down. While doing so, they seem to angrily beckon at the [[Kong]]s, marking their "punchy" behavior. This is further shown by them clenching their two frontal legs into fists. The Kongs can defeat a Punchy Paddy by either [[jump]]ing on it, [[Roll Attack|roll]]ing into it, or by throwing an object (such as a [[DK Barrel]]) at them. If the Kongs get in contact with a Punchy Paddy, they become injured and lose a [[heart (item)|heart]]. | Punchy Paddies act similar to [[Frogoon]]s and [[Hopgoon]]s from ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'', where they remain in a single spot and [[jump]].

In [[Shipwreck Shore]], a group of three Punchy Paddies hop on small wooden crates that float on a body of water. If these crates are destroyed with a [[Corkscrew (Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze)|Corkscrew]] from underneath, the Punchy Paddies fall in the water and are defeated. | In [[Shipwreck Shore]], a group of three Punchy Paddies hop on small wooden crates that float on a body of water.

The Punchy Paddies of [[Busted Bayou]] move down the path by hopping, as opposed to being stationary. | ||
