Krunch's first appearance is in the game ''[[Diddy Kong Racing]]''. Here Krunch is sent by [[King K.

Instead of antagonizing Diddy and his friends, Krunch ends up aiding them in their battle against the evil alien hog, [[Wizpig]]. Krunch has the worst acceleration and handling in the game, but has a very high top speed, making him the 3rd fastest racer. |

Trivia

- Strangely, Krunch speaks in a hissing-like noise in the first cut-scene of Diddy Kong Racing DS. He says to his twin, "Where are thosssssssse Kongssssssss going? I will follow!" When selected, however, Krunch never makes any hissing noises.
- Krunch is one of the few Kremlings to become affiliated with the Kongs, the other being K. Lumsy.
- Krunch is by far the worst racer in Diddy Kong Racing. It's extremely hard (or even impossible) to beat the adventure by using only him.
