The first appearance of Krunchas is in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' as semi-common enemies. Krunchas are so muscular that regular attacks (such as jumping) have no effect on them, these only enrage them to the point that they turn red and move at a slightly faster speed. Krunchas can only be defeated with aid from an [[Animal Buddy]], by having an object (such as [[crate]]) thrown at them or by [[team-up|teaming-up]] and throwing either [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] or [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] at them. Krunchas can also be defeated in another when [[Diddy]] and [[Dixie]] team up, as their combined weight can defeat the kremling in a simple jump. When a Kruncha is enraged a team-up attack has no effect on them, the thrown kong only becomes injured.

Krunchas are large, burly, blue and sometimes pink members of the Kremling Krew.

The first appearance of Krunchas is in Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest as semi-common enemies. Krunchas are so muscular that regular attacks (such as jumping) have no effect on them, these only enrage them to the point that they turn red and move at a slightly faster speed. Krunchas can only be defeated with aid from an Animal Buddy, by having an object (such as crate) thrown at them, or by teaming-up and throwing either Diddy or Dixie at them. Also, by teaming up, Diddy and Dixie can use their combined weight to defeat the Kremling with a simple jump. When a Kruncha is enraged however, a team-up attack has no effect on them, and the thrown Kong only becomes injured.

Later in the game a pink version of Krunchas are encountered. These Krunchas if enraged move at an even faster speed than an enraged blue Kruncha. This pink variant is found mostly in the area K. Rool's Keep.

Krunchas also appear in Donkey Kong Country 2's pseudo-sequel Donkey Kong Land 2. There is no real difference between the Krunchas of Donkey Kong Country 2 and Donkey Kong Land 2.
