'''Donkey Kong''' ({{ja|ドンキーコング|Donkī Kongu}}, ''Donkey Kong''), shortened as '''DK''' on the [[victory screen]] and [[character select screen]], is a [[default character]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. He returns from the original ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', but with faster moves and agility, as well as an improved recovery.

Like {{SSBM|Ganondorf}}, Donkey Kong is voiced by {{s|wikipedia|Takashi Nagasako}} by using realistic gorilla grunts, similarly to his sounds in ''Super Smash Bros.''
Like {{SSBM|Bowser}}, Donkey Kong has no voice actor and instead uses realistic gorilla grunts, similarly to his sounds in ''Super Smash Bros.''


He is currently 17th out of 26 on the tier list, placing him in the E tier. This is a slight improvement to his previous placement in ''Smash 64'' where he was ranked 9th out of 12. Donkey Kong, true to being a heavyweight, is difficult to KO, and this is aided by his fast [[falling speed]]. Donkey Kong also has powerful attacks, and he has excellent range to boot. Despite his weight and size, Donkey Kong is very agile; most of his attacks are executed swiftly, he has a high [[air speed]], and his jumping prowess is solid. His mobility facilitates combos, and this is further aided by his remarkable [[grab]]. However, Donkey Kong himself is vulnerable to combos due to his large size, and his recovery, while covering a significant amount of horizontal distance, struggles in terms of vertical distance. Due to these traits, Donkey Kong is seen as a situational character.
