Cranky's Dojo

Cranky's Dojo is a location in the Northern Kremisphere where Cranky trains himself for his future game "Cranky Kong Country". This location is exclusive to the Game Boy Advance version of Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!. This area replaces Wrinkly's Save Cave from the original version, while the one near Funky's Rentals was replaced with Wrinkly's Retreat.

Overview
When Dixie and Kiddy enter, Cranky explains that he is in need of training for future game "Cranky Kong Country". For a small fee of two Bear Coins, the player controls Cranky and must shield him from an onslaught of small, curled up Bristles. Bristles come from the left and right sides of the screen and different angle variations; up, down, or straight. Some Bristles can ricochet as well. Cranky has to move his shield and block the incoming Bristles. If a Bristles touches Cranky, the minigame is lost and Cranky collapses onto the floor.

There are a total of thirty Bristles that target Cranky, and are faster rather than reflected. When the minigame is completed Dixie and Kiddy win Bear Coins, Bananas, Extra Life Balloons, depending on their progress. They get a Banana Bird if they complete the minigame for the first time.
