'''Rabbid Kong''' is a massive, ape-like [[Rabbid]] that appears in ''[[Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle]]'' as the end boss of [[Ancient Gardens]], as well as the main antagonist and final boss of the [[Donkey Kong Adventure]] expansion. As his name implies, he is heavily based on [[Donkey Kong]], right down to wearing his signature "DK" necktie. However, Rabbid Kong's posture and walk style are more realistic and more comparable to those of a real life {{wp|gorilla}} than Donkey Kong's more cartoonish movements.

===''Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle''===

Rabbid Kong's first move is to create a shock wave on the battlefield that deducts 10 [[Heart Point|HP]] from each heroic character, and the move also knocks them back unless they have full cover. To damage him, one of the characters must approach him, which will cause the pressure plate in front of him to drop his banana hoard and go ballistic as a result, making him an easier target - however, he will also hit the nearest character with a much stronger attack. To avoid this, Luigi or Rabbid Peach can alternatively deploy a Sentry towards the pressure plate, allowing all three heroes to attack Rabbid Kong while simultaneously protecting them from his stronger attack. When his HP is depleted, Rabbid Kong will move to another portion of the battlefield and replenish himself with a fresh banana hoard, repeating the process. He is defeated after the third phase. Three [[Ziggy|Garden Ziggies]] support Rabbid Kong in the first phase, followed by two [[Hopper|Garden Hopper]]s in the second phase and one [[Smasher|Garden Smasher]] in the third phase.

When defeated, Rabbid Kong attempts to make his last stand by standing atop a wobbly block tower; however, [[Rabbid Peach]] humorously knocks it over (after Mario tells her not to touch it), causing Rabbid Kong to plummet down to his defeat, after being in a selfie with Rabbid Peach.

Rabbid Kong, although depicted in his Mega Rabbid Kong form, appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' as a Novice-class Attack-type primary [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]]. When used, the spirit increases a fighter's weight. In [[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate#Adventure|World of Light]], the Rabbid Kong spirit is encountered west from the area with the mushroom platforms on the Light Realm map. To earn the spirit, the player has to fight a white [[Donkey Kong]] wearing the [[Bunny Hood]] on the [[3D Land]] stage.

*In the ''{{wp|Rabbids Invasion}}'' episode ''Gorilla Rabbid'', there is a similar-looking Rabbid which apparently appears as early prototype version of rabbid kong who also references Donkey Kong through barrel-throwing, akin to [[Donkey Kong (game)|the arcade game]].
