Bari hover in the air utilizing a special form of electromagnetic repulsion. Occasionally they build up an abundance of electricity and they must release it. If you strike during this time, you will get shocked and take damage instead of hurting them. Red Bari split apart into two smaller Bari which possess the same ability to shock. The Hookshot is a great weapon to use against the Bari since it doesn't conduct electricity and will one-shot the Blue Bari. The Red Bari will split and then the two smaller Bari can be dispatched.

The Goriya (known as Copy in Japan) are simple creatures who utilize a confusing behavior to attack their enemies. They mimic the movements of their opponent in the opposite direction. When you go left, they go right. If you move up, they move down. If you line up face to face with a Red Goriya, it will spit a fireball at you. The Green Goriyas are vulnerable to many typical attacks, but the Red Goriya can only be struck by arrows.

Pometts appear to be headless turtles; no matter which way they face, they always look the same. Their thick hard shell makes them impervious to sharp attacks. The only way to expose their soft under-belly is to pound the nearby ground with the Magic Hammer, which knocks them off their feet and on to their backs. Be careful, however. After a while, they get back up on their feet, and chase you even faster.

Pons have a thick rubbery shell on top of their heads. While they can be attacked normally, the impact with the shell will send Link flying backwards.

The magic that animates the great Stalfos Knights is a lot stronger than the usual Stalfos magic. By striking the knights, you can separate their bones, and only for a little while. Once the bones have fallen into a pile, you must find a way to prevent them from reconstructing back into a skeleton. Only a bomb has the power to destroy the bones beyond regeneration. As soon as the bones collapse, place a bomb near them so that it explodes before the bones have a chance to rise.
