'''Squiddicus''' is an enemy that first appeared in the game ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' and later appeared in its [[Nintendo 3DS]] remake, ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D]]''. Despite its name, Squiddicus more closely resembles an octopus than a squid. In these games, it only appears in the level [[Stormy Shore]], as one of the main obstacles. Squiddicus later appears in the game ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]'' and its Nintendo Switch [[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (Nintendo Switch)|port]] exclusively in the [[Sea Breeze Cove]] level [[Irate Eight]].

For the majority of [[Stormy Shore]], Squiddicus only appears in the level's background, where it is seen destroying a ship. Near the end of the level, Squiddicus will attack the [[Kong]]s by blocking the way with its arms, which will cause them to lose a heart on contact. [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] can avoid the arms by jumping over them, and must jump between sides when in the [[climbing grass|green surface]] segment. Squiddicus will also use its arms to break certain platforms after a length of time. In this game, Squiddicus cannot be defeated by any means. Upon reaching the end of the level, if the Kongs do not launch from the barrel to the [[Slot Machine Barrel]], Squiddicus will raise one of its arms into the air, threatening to crush the [[Barrel Cannon]] the Kongs are in. If its arm manages to destroy the Barrel Cannon, it will cause the Kongs to lose a [[Extra life|life]].
