(They can't be Krushas in pirate gear because Krunchas have shorter and thicker tails, shorter legs, flater nose with smaller teeth, bigger chests and BIGGER ARMS.) |

Template:Species-infobox Krunchas are large, burly, blue and sometimes pink members of the Kremling Krew.
The first appearance of Krunchas is in Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest as semi-common enemies. Krunchas are so muscular that regular attacks (such as jumping) have no effect on them, these only enrage them to the point that they turn red and move at a slightly faster speed. Krunchas can only be defeated with aid from an Animal Buddy, by having an object (such as crate) thrown at them, or by teaming-up and throwing either Diddy or Dixie at them. Also, by teaming up, Diddy and Dixie can use their combined weight to defeat the Kremling with a simple jump. When a Kruncha is enraged however, a team-up attack has no effect on them, and the thrown Kong only becomes injured.
Later in the game, a pink version of Krunchas are encountered. These Krunchas, if enraged, move at an even faster speed than an enraged blue Kruncha, and the pink variant also walk off the edge of the platforms. This pink variant is only found in two stages of K. Rool's Keep: Castle Crush and Clapper's Cavern.
Krunchas also appear in Donkey Kong Country 2's pseudo-sequel Donkey Kong Land 2. There is no real difference between the Krunchas of Donkey Kong Country 2 and Donkey Kong Land 2.
Kludge's Super Smash Bros. Brawl trophy mentions Kruncha, but only in the US version of the game.
