Conker the Squirrel is a Red squirrel who wears a blue and yellow shirt and blue and yellow shoes. He appears in Diddy Kong Racing and Conker's Pocket Tales then later in Conker's Bad Fur Day. He wears a light blue hoodie sweater and the same blue and yellow shoes. Despite having a high-pitched voice, Conker is stated to be 21 years old.

He is voiced by Chris Seavor, the creator of the game. Chris has also provided the voice for Peppy Hare and Slippy Toad of the Star Fox series in several titles including Super Smash Bros. Melee and Star Fox Adventures.

He, along with Banjo, were scrapped from Diddy Kong Racing DS and were replaced by Dixie and Tiny, due to Nintendo losing the rights to them when Rare moved.

Personality

In Diddy Kong Racing and Conker's Pocket Tales, Conker is a kind-hearted loving Red Squirrel. Where he is harmless and follows his parents' rules being to never drink alcohol or take drugs.

However, in Conker's Bad Fur Day, Conker has a major change and has mature nature of an alcoholic and is slightly a pervert, explaining that he then disobeyed his parents. He usually ends up with a hangover, which ends him up in many adventures. He is also greedy and will do anything to get extra cash.

Conker sports a thick British accent, which is sometimes made fun of (though most of the other characters also have British accents themselves).

Conker's selfish attitude effects many people around him, especially his girlfriend, Berri; she loves him deeply, but hates his constant drinking.

Most of all, Conker has split emotions. For example, one minute he can be nice and gentle, while greedy and cold-hearted the next. Everyone's opinion of him seems to be different.
