Glimmer the Angler Fish is an angler fish who appears in Donkey Kong video games as a supporting character. He appeared for the first and only time in Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest during second stage of Krem Quay, Glimmer's Galleon. He has not make another physical appearance since.
History[]
Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest[]
Glimmer apparently lives within the sunken galleon found in the middle of Krem Quay on Crocodile Isle. During the level Glimmer's Galleon, which is presumably set inside the lower portions of the ship, Glimmer will soon appear to help Diddy and/or Dixie Kong navigate through the darkened waters. Unlike other Animal Buddies (besides Quawks) in the game, Glimmer does not need to be broken free from an Animal Crate.
Donkey Kong Bananza[]
Glimmer is referenced through fossils of Anglerfish that appear at the Tempest Layer of the Underground World, and can be collected to purchase gear for Donkey Kong and Pauline to wear. The fossils can also be seen on display at the Groove Layer's museum. In the Emerald Rush DLC, a drawing of him can found in the sand on Donkey Kong Island.
Appearance[]
Despite being male, Glimmer resembles a female angler fish, although he seemingly lacks sharp teeth. He is colored brown with long thin points sticking out of his body, which are presumably part of a fin. He also has a light (that resembles a miner's torch) glowing on the tip of the stem on his head.
Personality[]
Glimmer is friendly and loyal to the Kongs, and is a great friend to have when swimming around in dark areas.
Trivia[]
- In real life nature, the female angler fish is the one that has the modified luminescent fin ray (the esca or illicium) acts as a lure for other fish. The males attach to the female and atrophies but still provides the necessary means of reproduction to the female. Males are also smaller than the females.
