Dingy Drain-Pipe

Dingy Drain-Pipe is the first stage of Pacifica. This level is only playable in the Game Boy Advance version of Donkey Kong Country 3. Upon finishing this level, Dixie Kong and Kiddy Kong can advance to Stormy Seas.

Description
Dingy Drain-Pipe takes place in the filthy pipes of Pacifica. At the start of the level, Dixie and Kiddy will simply walk along the pipes, encountering some Bristles as they go. Later on, they will have to dive into water filled pipes, where Lurchin and Koco pose as a threat. Dingy Drain-Pipe goes back and forth with walking segments and swimming segments, giving the level some dynamic elements.

During the walking areas, some Bristles, Buzz, and Re-Koil can be found. Also, Kiddy can use the Team-Up ability to throw Dixie up to higher areas normally inaccessible by one Kong alone. The water sections involve dodging Kocos and Lurchins, and during one of the segments an Animal Crate with Enguarde the Swordfish can be found. Enguarde can use his bill stab to defeat any Koco in his path. After getting past the No Animal Sign, a Bear Coin is awarded. Most water sections, by the end of the area, will have their water drained, hence the title of the level.

Bonus Levels

 * Collect 40 stars! -- Dixie/Kiddy have to collect 40 stars in a narrow series of pipes in under fifteen seconds. Some barrel cannons can blast them around the pipes to collect the stars.
 * Collect 55 stars! -- The duo have 25 seconds to accumulate 55 stars that are found in a narrow, water filled pipe. Over time, the water will be drained, sucking down the water and Kongs with it, so they will have to act fast to get the stars.

Glitch

 * By leaving Enguarde just in front of the No Animal Sign and proceeding down to where the level is drained, Enguarde will be found near some Bristles. He is parallel to where he was dropped off, and why is occurs is unknown.
