Deedge

MSM Bio:

"The Deedge, attuned to the beat of the Earth, pulls together multiple elements to produce a complex beat. A tireless, energetic performer, it keeps all the Monsters dancing."

MSM Composer Bio:

"The Deedge's special soundboard is a marvel of acoustic science, since the Monster is able to create different tones and effects just like a DJ, despite the fact that the object is made only of ice."

Description
The Deedge is a light blue gorilla-like monster with puffy lavender fingers and a speaker on its head. Its fur makes it look like it has a beard. Its ears are covered by its headphones. Deedge plays on eleven ice blocks like they are a launchpad, like a DJ does, hence the name "Deedge." Its eyes are green and it has two  mini-fridges as speakers. It's unknown if it has legs.

During the times when the Deedge is idle, it will occasionally touch its headphones as it moves its head back and forth to the tempo of the music.

Song
Audio sample:

The Deedge's contribution to an island's song is heavily rhythmic, similar in sound to the electronic beats of a DJ. Using an anatomically built-in amplification system, it strikes a series of ice blocks to produce its beats. On Gold Island, the Deedge's song consists of a melodic series of electronic tones.

Breeding
The Deedge can be bred using monsters that combine to provide all the elements Air, Plant, Water and Cold without repeating any.

The following pairs of 2-element monsters can be used to breed a Deedge:
 * Dandidoo.png + Maw.png Dandidoo and Maw
 * Quibble.png + Furcorn.png Quibble and Furcorn
 * Pango.png + Oaktopus.png Pango and Oaktopus

However, the combination of a 3-element with 1-element monster has a higher rate of success:
 * Spunge.png + Mammott.png Spunge and Mammott
 * Thumpies.png + Toe Jammer.png Thumpies and Toe Jammer
 * Congle.png + Potbelly.png Congle and Potbelly
 * Bowgart.png + Tweedle.png Bowgart and Tweedle

On Shugabush Island, the Deedge must either be purchased with diamonds or teleported from Cold Island (not Gold Island) once it reaches level 15.

The Rare version of any monster can be used for breeding instead of the common version.

Earning Rate and Maximum Income
Earning rate is in coins per hour and depends on Happiness % (Likes increase Happiness), also each monster has a limit to how much income it can hold at a time. Increasing the monster's level increases the limit.

Strategy
Some items to take into consideration when designing your island by strategy are number of beds for the monster, rate of income per bed, max income per bed, and time for max income to be reached. The income below is for level 15:

Name Origin
The name "Deedge" is probably a portmanteau of "deejay" (which is basically another word for a DJ) and "Fridge".

Rare Version
Main Article: Rare Monsters

Rares are special versions of monsters that are only available to buy and breed on weekends. Each weekend a different rare is available to buy or breed. The breeding combination is the same as a regular monster, but the breeding time is longer, the "likes" are different, and the earning rates are higher. They are not yet available in the Windows version of the game.

Christmas
During the Christmas season of December, all Deedge (on all the islands) wear brown hats over the boomer on the top of their heads, wear a red shirt with yellow strips on the sleeves and their boom-boxes have a Christmas Tree decoration as part of the Cold Island Christmas celebration.

This costume did not return in since 2015.
