Job Description:

He sells illegal arms and he's a mechanic. He's also the one to go to if you want to smuggle in a boat or a plane to get somewhere. Beware, though. These planes and boats are ones he made. So they might not be all that comfortable as first class.

BECAUSE YOU'RE MOST LIKELY SITING IN A BARREL

Moveset:

• Funky Punch – Charged punch that takes more time to charge than DK but is more powerful.
  
• Bongo Drum – Mashes the opponent with a bongo, which acts like DK’s Side special.
  
• Bongo Music – plays music on two bongo drums, creating tremors on the ground. Lower range than DK in front of him but higher behind him.
  
• Funky Spin – Exactly like DK’s up special but his fists are clenched and it deals more damage.
  
• Groundslam - Both hands slam to the ground.
  
• Double punch - Both fists punch upward twice.
  

Final Smash: Surf’s Up – Funky pulls out his surfboard and rides a large wave across the stage

Weaknesses: A bit on the slow side (speedwise), more powerful attacks take more time. Sun blinds him when he doesn't have sunglasses on. Which would NEVER happen.




Hair Color: Brown
Eye Color: He only wears sunglasses.
Height: Humansize
Build: Like a gorilla. Tough and strong.

Overall Physical Description:

Funky Kong has the same general build as fellow Kongs, being both large and muscular with lightbrown fur. Funky wears a pair of purple-tinted sunglasses which conceal what his true eyes look like; his eyes are said to be like Donkey Kong's, but Funky never reveals his eyes.

Funky Kong's attire is essentially the same, with him wearing a red bandanna with white polka-dots, medals around his neck ("bling") and sandals. Sometimes, however, he will change things up, wearing anything from a white muscle shirt, blue shorts and black boots, or a navy blue and black cammo print outfit, or even his surfwear. Red and gold swim trunks and the red and white polka dot bandana. The sunglasses always stay on.

Overall Personality Description:

Unlike most of his relatives, Funky Kong actually loathes adventuring, preferring to aid his friends through other means, such as through his shops and flight services. He is also portrayed as being bold and energetic, despite his dislike for adventuring. Funky's hobbies include such things as surfing and tinkering with and building various machinery such as vehicles and weapons. He lives up to his name, by being a Day DJ at Kasa De Kong, a family owned club made for the family. Known to be the best family DJ around town, Funky has to be really careful sometimes working. He keeps his day outfit the same at all times, but changes at night.

History:

Funky Kong was born first of who-knows-how many in the Kong family to Cranky (Donkey Sr.) and Wrinkly Kong (Um...Candy Sr.? I don't know). He was named Funky because his hair at the time was a bit funky looking. It grew normal, as the months went by, but he certainly lived up to his name. Two years later, Donkey Kong (Jr) was born. He was named after Cranky and lived up to his name as well. They were really close for a time.

Then Funky wanted to explore the land and left the family at a young age. There, he met another ape and claimed he fell in love. He even wrote to Donkey about it and sent it in barrel-mail. After a few weeks of fun, she up and left him and Funky became depressed, eating bananas day and night. He was sleeping one night and heard a knock on his treehouse door. Grumbling to himself, he had gotten up and opened the door, peering outside.

Nobody was out there except a basket and a note.

Funky~
Here is our son that you have caused me to carry for the longest time. I don't want him and I'm sure you do. I had fun while it lasted, but now it's over and I just want to forget. I'm sorry, I fell in love with someone else, and if he found out I had a kid, he'd never forgive me.

Please don't stay mad at me forever
Goodbye, Funky Kong~

This wasn't what any monkey wanted to go through. However, here he stood, note in hand. He took in the baby, took one look and declared him to be Diddy Kong. He raised him, with the help of Donkey Kong, and watched with pride as the two became close--almost as close as Donkey and Funky once had. He just hoped that Diddy was kept safe.

Donkey then opened up Kasa De Kong, and invited Funky to be Day DJ there. He accepted and popularity grew fast. Diddy helped, too, when he could. He was the one who would keep the place clean, and sometimes announced for everyone.

Anything Else: Funky has three rules. 1. Don't hurt Diddy. 2. Don't hurt Donkey. 3. Don't hurt anyone.




Funky Kong swung in the tree swing, leaning his head back and feeling the air. This place was well hidden in this area. They couldn't possibly be found. It was good for his son. Speaking of which...

"Yo, Diddy! Dinner time. Banana splashing banana. My specialty." He grinned at his son holding out a plate of squashed bananas. "Dig in."

Diddy climbed up the tree from playing and laughed gayly at his father. "Oh, Dad, are we going to have anything NOT banana like?"

Funky scrunched his nose. "Now, hold on a minute there, son. Bananas are mighty fine. We look way coolio sitting here eating bananas." He watched as part of the banana mountain fell to the ground. "That didn't help my case, yo."

He cleaned up the mess and went inside, grabbing regular bananas and tossing one to Diddy.

Diddy caught it, smiling. "Thanks, Pops. You want to come with Uncle Donkey and me around the town tonight?"

Funky frowned. "Whoa, no. I would NOT want to come galloping around town. Whatever happened to the good days when we could travel, hm? Besides, it's Funky night at Kasa De Kong. I'd take that anytime over some crazy adventure your hip Uncle has in store for you." He teased him, stealing his red cap and holding it away from him.

Diddy laughed and jumped for it. Funky laughed along with and jumped when the hat was stolen from him, but not by Diddy.

Donkey sat on the table, handing the hat to Diddy. "Okay, kids" He teased them, trying to sound like Cranky. What a family night...
