Kritter

Kritters (, Kritter) are enemies from the series. They are the basic Kremling enemies working for King K. Rool in .

Origin
Kritters are the basic enemies of the classic Donkey Kong Country games, with a role similar to 's Goombas. They damage the player on contact, and can be defeated by a jump, a rolling tackle, or a thrown. Green Kritters walk back and forth, while blue Kritters move around by jumping. Kritters have been playable in a variety of Donkey Kong games, particularly the spin-off titles released in the 2000s. In Diddy Kong Racing, one of the playable characters is a Kritter named Krunch, one of two characters in the entire game (alongside Diddy Kong) to be based on existing Donkey Kong lore (not counting Dixie Kong and Tiny Kong, added in the DS remake to replace Conker and Banjo respectively). Unlike other Donkey Kong villains, Kritters have had multiple appearances in the Mario franchise - as spectators in the Mario Tennis series, playable characters in Mario Super Sluggers, and - perhaps most notably - non-playable goalies in the Super Mario Strikers and Mario Strikers Charged.

In Smash Run
Green and blue Kritters appear as enemies. Both types walk around and turn at ledges, but will attack differently if they spot a player:
 * Green Kritters bite three times, and are able to turn around between each one.
 * Blue Kritters attack with a multi-hitting spinning tackle, which can also be performed while jumping.

Both Kritter types are also part of the enemy waves in the generic version of the Vs. Enemy Team final battle.

Trophy
The Kritter trophy appears in both versions of the game.

In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
Kritter appears as a spirit for the game's Spirit mode.
