'''Donkey Kong''' ({{ja|ドンキーコング}}, ''Donkey Kong''), written as '''DK''', is a [[starter character]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' He has slow, yet powerful attacks, like his trademark move: the [[Giant Punch]]. Due to this, his archetype has also inspired the ~~archtype~~ for most of the heavyweight characters in subsequent games, on which he has also appeared. His voice clips mostly use gorilla grunts and sounds.

His voice clips mostly use gorilla grunts and sounds.

Donkey Kong is currently ranked 9th on the [[tier list]]. He has powerful moves such as his aforementioned Giant Punch -which, when fully charged, deals 36% damage-, an infamously abusable [[grab release]], remarkable reach ~~thorughout~~ his moveset, and is the heaviest character in the game, making him very difficult to KO, especially vertically. However, he is somewhat slow, and is also the largest character in the game, coupled with his heavy weight, he is an easy target for combos. Despite his incredible endurance, his off-stage survivability is almost non-existent, as he has among the worst vertical-distanced recovery moves in the game. Despite this, Donkey Kong was indirectly [[buff]]ed in the international releases thanks to the changes to [[smash DI]] system as well as the decreased shield stun. As a result, Donkey Kong is ranked 12th in the Japanese tier list, having a losing matchup against every character in the game, especially against {{SSB|Kirby}}, which is considered to be virtually unwinnable.
