Rattly the Rattlesnake

Rattly is an Animal Buddy in Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest and Donkey Kong Land 2. He has not appeared anywhere else since.

Summary
Rattly shares a lot of traits with Winky, as they both can jump very high and share the ability to defeat Zingers by simply jumping on them. In fact, he replaces Winky from the original Donkey Kong Country. Rattly, as the name suggests, is very based on a real-life rattlesnake, with green skin, similar tongues and being found in jungles (as per the rest of the Animal Buddies). He is first found in the level Topsail Trouble where his crate being seen at the very start of the level. His controls work in a similar way to Winky's; pressing R or A, (or the SELECT button for Donkey Kong Land 2), makes him shake and letting go allows him to bounce up really high.
