'''Glimmer'''<ref name="snesmanual"/> is an [[Animal Friend]] who first appears in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]''. He lives in the sunken ships of [[Krem Quay]] and has a lantern on his forehead for navigating the dark areas. Although Glimmer is officially referred to as male, he resembles a female angler fish. Real-world {{wp|anglerfish}} exhibit significant sexual dimorphism: male anglerfish are much smaller and do not possess the recognizable luminescent esca. This is a similar case to another aquatic Animal Friend, [[Orco]], who is referred to as male despite resembling a female orca. | '''Glimmer'''<ref name="snesmanual"/> is an [[Animal Friend]] who first appears in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]''.

In ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'', Glimmer appears only in his titular level, [[Glimmer's Galleon (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Glimmer's Galleon]]. Glimmer steadily follows behind [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] and [[Dixie Kong]], flashing his lantern for them to see the path ahead. He cannot be harmed by enemies.

Glimmer steadily follows behind [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] and [[Dixie Kong]], flashing his lantern for them to see the path ahead. He cannot be harmed by enemies. In the [[Game Boy Advance]] remake, Glimmer's role became redundant due to the game's brighter visuals, enough for the player to see the Kongs' surroundings without his assistance. | ||
Glimmer is absent from the [[Glimmer's Galleon (Donkey Kong Land 2)|Glimmer's Galleon]] stage in ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]'', despite the level still having his name; instead, Glimmer's role was fulfilled by [[Light Barrel]]s. Glimmer is still shown on the game cover, which is based on promotional artwork for ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' that shows him following behind the Kongs in an underwater setting. | Glimmer is absent from the [[Glimmer's Galleon (Donkey Kong Land 2)|Glimmer's Galleon]] stage in ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]'', despite the level still having his name; instead, Glimmer's role was fulfilled by [[Light Barrel]]s.
