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's Tiny
- Her small size, along with the flower on her overalls and her pigtails, make her really cute looking.
- Hence her name, she can shrink in size, to suit her mood!
- Her Feather Bow is useful for shooting targets and opening up gates.
- In DK64, she is one of the fastest and most nimble Kongs, along with Diddy.
- Tiny is the one who learns of the Banana Queen's problem and says she will do her best to help.
- After Donkey Kong 64, she made two cameos in the GBA remakes of Donkey Kong Country 2 and 3.
- Using her pigtails, she can float through the air, just like Dixie.
- She returned a sad mermaid's pearls to her in Gloomy Galleon.
- Tiny is the Kong chosen to battle the Mad Jack in Frantic Factory, the most frightening boss in the game and she is a child fighting it. She mostly avoids him until she gets to shock him using the switches.
- Depending on your point of view, her redesign can be very appealing and very pretty for many people, even if she looks like a teenager.
Bad Qualities
- When Tiny returned in Diddy Kong Racing DS, she was very unexpectedley redesigned into a teenager, which is creepy.
- After her redesign, Tiny lost her ability to shrink and float with her pigtails, making this redesign entirely pointless.
- 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).
- She originally wasn't well-received when she first appeared in DK 64, due to her replacing her sister, and fan-favorite character, Dixie.
