'''Diddy Kong''' ({{ja|ディディーコング|Didī Kongu}}, ''Diddy Kong'') is a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', confirmed on August 22, 2007. He is unique, distinct among the cast for his charm and gaiety. Unlike in most ''Donkey Kong'' games and ''Mario'' spin-offs, where Diddy Kong has a cartoonish voice, ''Brawl'' has him using a realistic high-pitched chimpanzee voice (sampled from the commonly used "Chimpanzee Screeche PE026201" stock sound effect) rather than being voiced by {{s|wikipedia|Katsumi Suzuki}}, who first voiced Diddy in ''Mario Power Tennis''. He is also the first playable character to be introduced from the ''Donkey Kong'' universe since the [[Super Smash Bros.|original game]]. | '''Diddy Kong''' ({{ja|ディディーコング|Didī Kongu}}, ''Diddy Kong'') is a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros.

He ranks 4th on the [[tier list]]. This is mainly because of his ability to throw {{b|Banana Peel|move}}s that give him great control of the ground and great setup and damage-racking potential (by attacking opponents that have slipped on them), as well as providing good defense, making them one of the best projectiles in the game, giving him a very strong control of the ground. Additionally, he has quick attack speed, good mobility, a solid [[down aerial]] [[meteor smash]], good [[grab]] range, and powerful throws, which aid in his ability to control the stage. However, his primary [[recovery]] move, [[Rocketbarrel Boost]], travels in a predictable fashion, is easily [[edgehog]]ged, and can be stopped by stage lips. Additionally, his few KO moves, while fast and reliable when fresh, stale quickly and are largely dependent on his Banana Peels for a setup. Diddy Kong has excellent matchups, having only three slightly unfavorable, and has very strong tournament results. | He ranks 4th on the [[tier list]].
