Diddy Kong

Diddy Kong, Donkey Kong’s pal has finally joined the battle! Unfortunately, screenshots fail to truly capture the way he moves. He scrambles around the battle, using whimsical fighting moves while wielding both his Rocketbarrel Boost and Peanut Pop Gun from Donkey Kong 64. For some reason, Diddy has a weapon made of wood. You can boost the speed of your shots by holding down the button, but if you hold it down too long, the gun explodes, covering Diddy Kong in what appears to be smoke or ash. Also, if the shell breaks and a peanut pops out, you can apparently eat the peanut. You recover a little health when you eat it.

Final Smash
Diddy Kong's Final smash is called Rocketbarrel Barrage. Diddy Kong gets Peanut Popguns in both hands and flies around the screen. You can control which direction he flies by tilting the control stick.
