If the Kong is hit by Davy Bones, they lose a heart of their health, but if they perform a charge attack into Davy Bones, they temporarily knock out Davy Bones. While Davy Bones is knocked out, Donkey Kong or Diddy Kong must grab an orange peg at the tip of its tail and swing it at the spiked walls.
