Monking (モンキング Monkingu), also known as Mecha Monkey in the Mega Man 2 instruction manual for the U.S., is a robot ape enemy from Wood Man's stage in Mega Man 2 that was originally created to be used in forests. It always appears from the bottom of the screen, swings underneath the platform for a few seconds, and then leaps onto the platform to try to pounce Mega Man.

Monkikki[]
Monkikki (モンキッキ Monkikki) is a modified Monking from Mega Man V that jumps and throws banana-shaped projectiles. It appears in the stages of Mars and Uranus.
Monkikki's name is a play of "monkey" and "ukikki" ("eek", the sound a monkey makes).
Monking A[]
Monking A is a smaller, modified Monking that helps Atetemino Proto in Mega Man & Bass. It attacks by throwing balls from the top of the room and mocks the player, though it can be tricked into throwing these balls at the holographic copies created by the Copy Vision. When Atetemino Proto is defeated, it will fall off the rope and onto the ground.
Other media[]
Monking had brief appearances in the manga Mega Man Megamix and the cartoon Captain N: The Game Master.
Returning Monking appears in Mega Man #44 informing Hard Man that Mega Man arrived in his base. Hard Man later thanks the robot and it returns to patrolling the area.
