Template:Character-infobox Chunky Kong is a character from the Donkey Kong series. He is the strongest of the Kong Family but is somewhat meek. His first appearance was in Donkey Kong 64. He is the cousin of Tiny Kong and Dixie Kong as well as the older brother of Kiddy Kong.

Personality

Chunky is portrayed as the strong character, but with a sweet personality. Chunky is sweet and gentle and prefers not to fight unless he has to in order to help or protect those he cares about. He's normally cowardly, as if the player highlights him in the Tag Barrel, he'll shake his head and point at Tiny to try and get an excuse not to go. He also was afraid of Dogadon, and dropped to his knees to beg him not to hurt him. Despite that, Chunky can gather up courage to help out those in need.

Trivia

  • Chunky is the only Kong out of the crew of Donkey Kong 64 to not appear in Donkey Kong Barrel Blast. However, his pineapple launcher was included. He is also the only Kong from the crew of Donkey Kong 64 without a trophy in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
  • According to the Microbuffer that serves the announcer for the fight against K. Rool in Donkey Kong 64, Chunky Kong weighs 2000 pounds at his normal size.
  • When Chunky lands hard on the ground after falling several feet (and losing one Melon slice), when he first gets up, his torso and limbs shrink until he inflates those body parts back to their actual sizes.
