'''Lemguin''' is a large sharp-billed [[penguin]] encountered in the [[game]]s ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]''.
'''Lemguin''' is a large sharp-billed [[wikipedia:Crested penguin|crested penguin]] first appearing in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' Its name is a portmanteau of the animals "{{wp|lemming}}" and "{{wp|penguin}}".


In ''Donkey Kong Country 3'', Lemguins are encountered in one [[level]] in the game, named [[Lemguin Lunge]] located in [[K3]]. In this level, [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy Kong]] must dodge barrages of Lemguins. These enemies leaps from their holes and slides on their bellies, attempting to collide with the [[Kong]]s. A Lemguin can simply be defeated by a single [[jump]] on it or by any type of [[barrel]].
==History==
===''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!''===

In ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!'', Lemguins only appear in one [[level]], [[Lemguin Lunge]], where they are the titular feature. Various parts of the level feature an indefinite number of Lemguins jumping out from holes in the snow and sliding on their bellies, attempting to hit [[Dixie Kong]] and [[Kiddy Kong]], similarly to how [[Bazza]]s and [[Swoopy|Swoopies]] spawn indefinitely. A Lemguin can be defeated either from being [[jump]]ed on or by taking a hit from a [[Cartwheel Attack]] or a [[barrel]]. The Kongs cannot defeat Lemguin by rolling into it from the front, as this harms them. In [[Dixie Kong's Photo Album]], Lemguins are classified under the "[[Terrorfirma Tuff Guys]]" enemy class. In the [[Game Boy Advance]] remake, Lemguins jump straight upward before sliding on their belly.


In ''Donkey Kong Land III'', Lemguins are found in two levels, [[Polar Pitfalls]] in the area [[Primate Plains]] and [[Tundra Blunda]] in the area [[Blackforest Plateau]]. Here, the attack patterns of Lemguins remain the same and can still be defeated by the same techniques.
===''Donkey Kong Land III''===
 
The second and only other game appearance of Lemguins is in ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]'', where they only appear in two levels: [[Polar Pitfalls]] and [[Tundra Blunda]]. They behave no differently than in the previous game. In the [[Game Boy Color]] port, Lemguins have purple-colored sprites.
Lemguins are the land equivalent of [[Bazza]]s and [[Swoopy|Swoopies]], other enemies which possess similar attack patterns to Lemguins.
