'''Stronghold Showdown''' is the last level of [[K. Rool's Keep]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]''. It is a straight path inside a castle with no enemies. There are two hidden [[Banana Coin]]s and a hidden [[Red Balloon]] that [[Diddy Kong]] and [[Dixie Kong]] can reach by performing a [[team up]] throw. By continuing forward, the Kongs find [[Donkey Kong]] tied up in the middle of the room. When they approach Donkey Kong, Diddy and Dixie are rewarded a [[Kremkoin]], and the lead Kong performs their victory dance. During this, Donkey Kong is pulled up and carried out of the area. This shocks the Kongs, who immediately run out the other side to follow [[King K. Rool|Kaptain K. Rool]], who pulls Donkey Kong up to his airship, [[the Flying Krock]]. In ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'', the "Krook's March" theme plays if Stronghold Showdown is revisited.

'''Stronghold Showdown''' is the last level of [[K. Rool's Keep]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]''. In the [[Game Boy Advance]] version, it features a boss battle against the boss, [[Kerozene]].
In the [[Donkey Kong Country 2 (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance version]] of ''Donkey Kong Country 2'', Stronghold Showdown takes place on the roof of the castle, where the Kongs fight the exclusive boss, [[Kerozene]]. Kerozene attacks [[Diddy Kong]] and [[Dixie Kong]] with weakened [[Kleever]]s and a fire breath attack. In the first round, Diddy and Dixie must simply throw [[Cannonball|kannonball]]s at the Kleevers. Then, they must grab the kannonballs on the ground, avoid the flames the huge creature spits at them and then throw the kannonball at Kerozene's head. Kerozene will breathe fire in three different directions. His gigantic fists sometimes smash against the ground, stunning them momentarily. For his final attack, Kerozene shoots a fireball that sets the ground on fire. One Kong must grab the kannonball, jump on his hands before the ground bursts into flame, and throw it at his head to defeat him. After his defeat, he will fall with smoke coming from his mouth.

===''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' / ''Donkey Kong Land 2''===
[[File:Stronghold Showdown DKL2.png|thumb|left|Stronghold Showdown in ''Donkey Kong Land 2'']]
In its two original appearances, Stronghold Showdown is a straight path inside a castle with no enemies. There are two hidden [[Banana Coin|Banana Bunch Coin]]s and a hidden [[Red Balloon]] that [[Diddy Kong]] and [[Dixie Kong]] can reach by performing a [[team-up]] throw. By continuing forward, the Kongs find [[Donkey Kong]] tied up in the middle of the room. When they approach Donkey Kong, Diddy and Dixie are rewarded a [[Kremkoin]], and the lead Kong performs their victory dance. During this, Donkey Kong is pulled up and carried out of the area. This shocks the Kongs, who immediately run out the other side to follow [[King K. Rool|Kaptain K. Rool]], who pulls Donkey Kong up to his airship, [[The Flying Krock]]
 
In ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'', the "Krook's March" theme plays during subsequent visits to Stronghold Showdown. Diddy and Dixie can also use Stronghold Showdown to exit K. Rool's Keep without paying Banana Bunch Coins at [[Funky's Flights II]].

In the [[Game Boy Advance]] remake, Stronghold Showdown takes place on the roof of the castle where the Kongs fight Kerozene.


Just before the battle, Diddy and Dixie briefly encounter [[King K. Rool|Kaptain K. Rool]], who says, "You didn't think it'd be that easy, did you? Let's see of you can get past Kerozene!". The boss fight against Kerozene then starts. At first, Kerozene sends out two small [[Kleever]]s to attack Diddy and Dixie; the small Kleevers can be defeated from a [[kannonball]]. Afterwards, Kerozene's face glows red, and another kannonball falls onto the stage. Kerozene breathes fire on the stage, and Diddy and Dixie can attack Kerozen by throwing a kannonball at his face. After a few hits, Kerozene starts to bang on the ground with his large fists. Upon taking a final hit, Kerozene collapses in defeat. The Kongs can obtain the Kremkoin and continue to The Flying Krock.
