'''Monkey robots''',<ref>[https://www.nintendo.com/consumer/gameslist/manuals/DS_Mario_vs_Donkey_Kong_March_of_the_Minis.pdf ''Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis'' North American instruction booklet], page 6.</ref> also known as '''Donkey Kong's robots''',<ref>"''A Circus Kong is one type of Donkey Kong’s robots.''" &mdash; [https://www.nintendo.com/consumer/gameslist/manuals/DS_Mario_vs_DK_Mayhem.pdf ''Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem!'' instruction booklet], page 18.</ref> refer to various enemy toys in the [[Mario vs. Donkey Kong (series)|''Mario vs. Donkey Kong'' series]]. They first appear in ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis]]'' and have shown up in all subsequent games in the series. Like [[Mini Donkey Kong]]s, they are based on the character [[Donkey Kong]], who appears as the main antagonist in most of the games in the series.

Unlike other enemies, monkey robots do not harm the [[Mini]]s directly when they come into contact with them. Once they catch the Minis, monkey robots perform a certain action on the toys which can help or hinder them, depending on the context. For example, [[Circus Kong]]s juggle the Minis up and down, enabling them to reach higher [[platform]]s in some cases, but keeping them in mid-air perpetually if no platforms are present above. Most monkey robots cannot be destroyed, but can instead be stunned and neutralized temporarily by using a form of attack on them. Doing this also releases any Mini currently under their control. Exceptions include [[Cool Kong]]s and [[Kongā]], which cannot be harmed in any way, as well as the monkey robot controlling a [[Cursed Mini Mario]], which is permanently destroyed upon being attacked.
