Talk:Knuckles the Echidna vs. Donkey Kong/@comment-50.151.60.33-20150118003804/@comment-50.173.41.217-20150118023845

While the moon-punching feat is questionable, it's still fantastic and I highly doubt Knuckles could pull it off. Donkey Kong also has the coconut gun (note that falling coconuts are literally capable of killing people in a single hit, and the gun fires them at speeds much faster) and orange grenades, so he has the edge in long-range combat. Yes Eggman always loses in the end but always because it takes Sonic to tell Knuckles that Eggman tricked him. Donkey Kong isn't really too smart either but he isn't stupid like Knuckles is.
