History
Donkey Kong Country 3
Lemguins first appear in Donkey Kong Country 3, where Lemguins are encountered in one level in the game, named Lemguin Lunge, which is located in K3. In this level, Dixie Kong and Kiddy Kong must dodge Lemguins that come out of holes, which they indefinitely spawn from. These enemies leap from their holes and slide on their bellies, attempting to collide with the Kongs. A Lemguin can be defeated by jumping on it, hitting them with a cartwheel from behind, or by hitting them with any type of barrel. Attacking Lemguins from the front will damage the Kongs. In the original version of Donkey Kong Country 3, Lemguins leap forward out their holes to slide, but in the Game Boy Advance remake of the game, they jump straight up before sliding.
According to the game's credits, Lemguins belong to the "Terrorfirma Tuff Guys" enemy class.
Donkey Kong Land III
Lemguins reappear in Donkey Kong Land III, where they are found in two levels, Polar Pitfalls in the area Primate Plains, and Tundra Blunda in the area Blackforest Plateau. In the Game Boy Color version of the game they are recolored purple. Here, the attack patterns of Lemguins remain the same and can still be defeated in the same way.
