A Skidda.

Skiddas are members of the Kremling Krew encountered in the game Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble and Donkey Kong Land 3. These oddly pink Kremlings are rather uncommon enemies appearing only in levels filled with snow; they are first introduced in Skidda's Row, where they are the main enemies, as the name implies. Skiddas attack by sliding into the Kongs, although this may not be intentional since Skiddas seem rather unbalanced on ice and snow and skid out of control on it. Like their green lookalikes Kobbles, Skiddas are weak despite their burly look, and any attack can defeat them. Many Skiddas can be found on snow-capped rooves, so in most cases they can be avoided by passing in front of the chalets.

Skiddas return in the game's pseudo-sequel, Donkey Kong Land 3. In this game, they can be found in the three snow levels, namely Black Ice Blitz, Polar Pitfalls and Tundra Blunda. Since the Gameboy is not as powerful as the SNES, Skiddas have the same color as Kobbles in this port (grey for Gameboy, green for Gameboy Color). They still have the same attack pattern.

Trivia

  • According to the game's credits, Skiddas belong to the "Kremling Kreeps" enemy class.
