Powers and Abilities[]

Base[]

  • Superhuman Strength: As one of the beefiest members of the Kong Family. Funky is incredibly strong and is directly comparable to Donkey Kong, who's comparable, though physically superior to the likes of Mario, Luigi, and Wario. Funky is also capable of harming and besting the Kong Family's greatest adversaries like King K. Rool and Lord Fredrik.
  • Superhuman Speed: Despite his muscular physique, Funky is surprisingly fast; he's directly comparable to Dixie Kong, who, alongside Kiddy Kong, can dodge and outrun lightning. Funky is also relatively equal to Donkey Kong, who has consistently kept up with Mario in combat. The latter can dodge meteors, lasers and react to being shot across the universe at massively faster-than-light speeds. The vehicles Funky drives in the Mario Kart games can reach over 195 mph (313 km/h).
  • Superhuman Durability: Funky's defense is naturally equal to his offense, as he can tank attacks from opponents he can directly harm, such as Lord Fredrik.
  • Superhuman Stamina: Funky has impressive endurance. In "Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze", He spent hours platforming, fighting, and swimming across various environments to get to Lord Fredrik without getting tired.
  • Self-Sustenance: A strange ability he possesses, Funky does not require oxygen to live in "Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze" Funky can last indefinitely underwater without the need for air. During his appearances in Mario Kart, he can race right above Earth's atmosphere and across space without any gear.
  • Fourth Wall Awareness: Funky has a mild degree of Fourth Wall Awareness; in "DKC: Tropical Freeze" he always looks and smiles directly at the camera before doing a level.
  • Acrobatics: Like every other Kong, Funky is a talented platformer and acrobat. He can double jump, do infinite roll attacks, and perform numerous stunts in mid-air while driving various vehicles.
  • Weapon Mastery: Despite his laid-back nature, Funky is well-versed in a variety of weapons. He can use his surfboard as a makeshift baseball bat. In "Donkey Kong 64", Funky was drafted for an unknown war; upon returning, he ran an armory where he created and supplied the Kong Family with a variety of guns and ammunition; at the climax of the game, he used a Rocket Boot Launcher to defeat King K. Rool. In Mario Kart, Funky can use many items and power-ups to combat his fellow racers.
    • Explosion Manipulation: Many of the weapons Funky supplied his family in "Donkey Kong 64" are explosive in nature. In Mario Kart, Funky can utilize items like Bob-Ombs and Blue Shells, which are capable of creating large explosions.
  • Vehicular Mastery: Aside from being a skilled surfer, Funky is an absolute genius in the field of vehicles, whether making, tinkering with, or traveling in them. Funky runs an entire Airplane and Boat business and regularly flies his planes for it. He can also drive a variety of karts and bikes in the Mario Kart franchise.
  • Flight: Funky can hover and even fly with his surfboard.
  • Toon Force/Elasticity: Funky has a mild degree of Toon Force/Elasticity as he can survive being flattened and recover instantly.
  • Vibration Manipulation: Funky is capable of creating shockwaves by repeatedly slapping the ground
  • Resistance to Extreme Cold: Funky can travel through cold landscapes without issue. In Mario Kart, he can race through icy environments and outer space without any protective gear. The vacuum of space averages a temperature of -235°C (-455°F)
