'''Bramble''', named '''Bellamy''' in European manuals,<ref>{{media link|DKC3 Bellamy ref.jpg|''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!''

Bramble claims to have once been in [[Mekanos]] but moved out from the location when it became overrun by factories and industrial pollution. Bramble, like many other Brothers Bear, is in possession of a [[Banana Bird]], whose abilities he has finished studying and is willing to part with. [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] or [[Kiddy Kong]] can obtain the Banana Bird by trading the [[Flupperius Petallus Pongus]] with Bramble. If the [[Kong]]s visit Bramble prior to completing Mekanos, he requests them to shut off the machines so that his plants can grow again. By the time that the Kongs complete [[Razor Ridge]], a Flupperius Petallus Pongus grows on a dead-end path adjacent to his bungalow. The Kongs can pick it up and give it Bramble, who then rewards them with a Banana Bird.


Bramble is a botanist, and wishes to study rare species of flowers. He also happens to be in the possession of a [[Banana Bird]], although he has finished studying its abilites, and is willing to part with it. If [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] or [[Kiddy Kong]] present Bramble with a [[Flupperius Petallus Pongus]], he'll be willing to trade his Banana Bird for it.
Bramble is named after a type of rose plant, a {{wp|bramble|bramble plant}}. His alternate name, Bellamy, was likely taken from the English botanist, {{wp|David Bellamy}}, and it still ended up becoming his Japanese name.

In the [[Donkey Kong Country 3 (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance version]], Bramble's role was slightly altered because the Flupperius Petallus Pongus instead has to be received from [[Bachelor]]. When it is given to Bramble, he exchanges a [[rose]] for it. Bramble now only gives his Banana Bird to the Kongs after they complete Mekanos.
If the [[Kong]]s visit Bramble prior to completing [[Mekanos]] he will ask them to shut off the machines so that the plants in the area can start to grow again. Eventually, by the time the Kongs complete [[Razor Ridge]], the Flupperius Petallus Pongus that Bramble wants will have grown on a dead-end path near his home, ready for the Kongs to pick.


In the [[Game Boy Advance]] [[remake]] of the game, Bramble does things differently. The Flupperius Petallus Pongus that he desires is in possession of [[Bachelor]], who will give it to the Kongs for free near the start of the game. By presenting the Flupperius Petallus Pongus to Bramble, he will give the Kongs a [[Rose]], which Bachelor needs for his date. While Bramble does have a Banana Bird in this version, he will give it to the Kongs any time they visit him after they complete Mekanos.

Bramble, named Bellamy in European manuals,[1] is a botanist and a member of the Brothers Bear in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! He lives in his own bungalow in the Northern Kremisphere map, where he studies rare species of flowers. Bramble claims to have once been in Mekanos but moved out from the location when it became overrun by factories and industrial pollution. Bramble, like many other Brothers Bear, is in possession of a Banana Bird, whose abilities he has finished studying and is willing to part with. Dixie or Kiddy Kong can obtain the Banana Bird by trading the Flupperius Petallus Pongus with Bramble. If the Kongs visit Bramble prior to completing Mekanos, he requests them to shut off the machines so that his plants can grow again. By the time that the Kongs complete Razor Ridge, a Flupperius Petallus Pongus grows on a dead-end path adjacent to his bungalow. The Kongs can pick it up and give it Bramble, who then rewards them with a Banana Bird.

Bramble is named after a type of rose plant, a bramble plant. His alternate name, Bellamy, was likely taken from the English botanist, David Bellamy, and it still ended up becoming his Japanese name.

In the Game Boy Advance version, Bramble's role was slightly altered because the Flupperius Petallus Pongus instead has to be received from Bachelor. When it is given to Bramble, he exchanges a rose for it. Bramble now only gives his Banana Bird to the Kongs after they complete Mekanos.
