Klaptraps are {{s|mariowiki|Kremling}}s who debuted in ''{{s|mariowiki|Donkey Kong Country}}''. They damage [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] by biting them. They appear in a variety of colors: blue, red, purple, and green. Klaptraps later appears in ''{{s|mariowiki|Donkey Kong 64}}'' with a similar role. Larger Klaptraps also appear in the game.

===As a Stage Hazard===

*Blue Klaptraps appear in Jungle Japes. They jump between the opening on either side of the middle section of the stage. If a character makes contact with a Klaptrap, they will be [[spike]]d, sending characters straight into Jungle Japes' torrential waters. They essentially serve as [[one-hit KO]]s in ''Melee''. Characters holding on to a [[ledge]] are also vulnerable to a Klaptrap.

Klaptraps do not come out of [[container]]s like other enemies do. They can however be used as regular [[item]]s in the [[TEST]] stage using an [[Action Replay]], or other hacking device. Klaptraps are invulnerable and cannot be damaged, unlike other enemies.

:''This low-slung alligator made its first appearance in Donkey Kong Country. You can subdue it by jumping on its back, but its powerful jaws make it dangerous to approach from the front. In Super Smash Bros. Melee, it swims in the river and sometimes jumps in the Barrel Cannon to stop players from using it.''

===As a Stage Hazard===

Like in ''Melee'', Klaptrap reprises its role as a stage hazard on the Jungle Japes stage. If a character makes contact with a Klaptrap, they will be [[meteor smash]]ed. It is usually a [[one-hit KO]] like in the previous game, since the meteor smash has very high knockback.

As in their previous appearances, Klaptraps appear on Jungle Japes and Kongo Jungle (now named Kongo Falls). They act nearly identically to their previous appearances. When the player is hit by Blue Klaptraps, they receive enough knockback for a [[OHKO]].

Klaptrap appears in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' as an [[Assist Trophy]]. Once summoned, it runs around the stage and latches onto any opponent it touches. Once latched, it bites down, doing repetitive damage similar to the [[Fan]]. As with most Assist Trophies in Ultimate, it can be KO'd. Its function, as described in [[Training Mode]], is that it "leaps up on opponents and bites down with sharp fangs." They cannot be called on [[Jungle Japes]], [[Kongo Falls]], and [[Suzaku Castle]]

*Klaptrap is the first Assist Trophy from the ''Donkey Kong'' series.

*When Klaptrap is attacked in ''Ultimate'', it makes the same sound as it did when defeated in ''Donkey Kong Country''. This sound was done by Chris Sutherland, making it the only non-human ''Donkey Kong'' character in ''Ultimate'' known to have a specific voice actor.
