Tiny Kong

Tiny Kong is a recurring character in the Donkey Kong series. She is a small monkey and Dixie Kong's younger sister who debuted in Donkey Kong 64.

Why She Rocks

 * 1) Her small size, along with the flower on her overalls and her pigtails, make her really cute looking.
 * 2) Hence her name, she can shrink in size, to suit her mood!
 * 3) Her Feather Bow is useful for shooting targets and opening up gates.
 * 4) In DK64, she is one of the fastest and most nimble Kongs, along with Diddy.
 * 5) Tiny is the one who learns of the Banana Queen's problem and says she will do her best to help.
 * 6) After Donkey Kong 64, she made two cameos in the GBA remakes of Donkey Kong Country 2 and 3.
 * 7) Using her pigtails, she can float through the air, just like Dixie.
 * 8) She returned a sad mermaid's pearls to her in Gloomy Galleon.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) When Tiny returned in Diddy Kong Racing DS, she was very unexpectedley redesigned into a teenager, which is creepy.
 * 2) After her redesign, Tiny lost her ability to shrink and float with her pigtails, making this redesign entirely pointless.
 * 3) * The 2 reasons above have sadly flanderized her as a result. While it was only temporary, thankfully (from 2007-2008), unfortunately, the damage has been done and Tiny hasn’t made any regular appearances since then, being reduced to having rare cameo appearances (her teenage design in Smash for Wii U as a trophy, while her normal cute Tiny self appeared as a spirit in Smash Ultimate).
 * 4) She originally wasn't well received when she first appeared in DK 64, due to her replacing her sister, and fan-favorite character, Dixie.
