Donkey Kong I, also known as Donkey Kong Sr., and later known as Cranky Kong, is a major antagonist in Nintendo's Mario franchise and the overarching protagonist of the eponymous franchise of the same name.
He is the titular main antagonist of the Donkey Kong arcade games, serving as the titular main antagonist of Donkey Kong and Donkey Kong 3, and the deuteragonist of Donkey Kong Jr. He used to be a brutish gorilla who attempted to kidnap Mario's girlfriend Pauline and kill him. In his later years, he retired and became Cranky Kong, the grandfather of the current Donkey Kong.
Cranky Kong's first appearance as the original Donkey Kong is in the Arcade game of the same name. After being mistreated by Mario (back then known as "Jumpman"), he kidnaps Mario's girlfriend Pauline to a construction site.
Mario then must climb up to the top of the construction site and save Pauline from the giant ape. Eventually, after Mario reaches the top of the construction site, he causes the bars to fall down, causing DK to fall and crash at the same time.
Donkey Kong Jr.[]
Donkey Kong was later imprisoned by Mario as punishment for kidnapping Pauline. However, he was saved by his son, Donkey Kong Jr.. As punishment, they both punch Mario for imprisoning him and almost killing Junior.
Donkey Kong 3[]
Donkey Kong attacks the greenhouse of the game's protagonist Stanley the Bugman. He has to be defeated in all three stages.
Donkey Kong Land[]
Years later when old age hits the original Donkey Kong, he becomes frail and cranky. Eventually, he takes the name "Cranky Kong", while his grandson takes on the name Donkey Kong III. Much of Donkey Kong III's time is spent listening to music and spending time with his friends, where he lives in a relatively laid back lifestyle, opposed to the original Donkey Kong. Unlike his grandfather, he is the friendly rival of Mario and often visits him in various sporting festivals. However, a band of Kremlings known as the Kremling Krew form during this time. Their attempts at stealing the banana hoard cause Donkey Kong to guard his banana hoard every night.
In Donkey Kong Land, Cranky Kong becomes an antagonist once again after he becomes jealous of Donkey Kong III and Diddy Kong's success over King K. Rool. Before the events of Donkey Kong Land, he allowed King K. Rool to steal the banana hoard again, he then challenges the mentioned two kongs in a bet to see if they could prove themselves as heroes by defeating King K. Rool once again. After another long adventure, Donkey Kong III and Diddy Kong defeat K. Rool and returned with the banana hoard, thus proving themselves as heroes.
