These are the first enemies that you see in the game, and some of the easiest to kill. Just swipe at them with your sword, and they'll usually be hit. However, sometimes you'll find your blow blocked by the daggers that all of soldiers have. To avoid this, just stun them by hitting them with a boomerang. This will neutralize any threat they might present, as well as stopping them from defending themselves. However, if you've just started out, you might not have your boomerang yet. To get around this, you can imitate their defensive stance by holding down your sword button. This will not only protect you, but will also charge your sword for a spin attack, which you can unleash as soon as it's charged. In the GBA version, you will also have the opportunity to attack them with magic by using your lamp. This is because in the GBA version of this game, your magic meter automatically fills when you get the lamp. In the SNES version, you may run out of magic and find yourself suddenly being hurt.

They pop up in patches of grass. They will always pop up from the same place.

They use their ball and chain against you. They are vulnerable when they recharge.
The Armos first appear to be harmless statues, but if you come to close, they will suddenly come to life and begin to chase you. However, because of their slow speed and nonexistent defense, they can be easily killed with almost any weapon.

The buzzblob produces an electric field that will sting Link if he strikes it with anything less than the level 4 sword. Once the buzzblob is stunned, its electric field is neutralized and a single hit from any sword will kill it. Throwing a stone will kill the buzzblob, whether or not it is stunned. The Buzzblob has a very unique reaction to Magic Powder.
It becomes a Cukeman, which will give hints if talked to.
The Crowl is an enemy that comes in two forms. One form will stay in a tree until it spots you, when it will pop out and come toward you. However, there is a more dangerous form, which will keep attacking you until you kill it.
A Deadrock is quite literally a living rock, and therefore impervious to every attack at Link's disposal except the most powerful magic. Attacking it turns it back into an ordinary and immobile rock. The only way to make this invulnerable enemy vulnerable is to turn it into a slime first.
The Derudomen are often annoying to players, due to their tendency to pop out of the ground right next to Link without warning. They generally live in desert areas, where the sand is soft enough to burrow in. One way to avoid them is to walk cautiously, then immediately begin attacking it when it pops out of the ground, removing its chance to get a free hit on you.
Hachi bees are, for the most part, a minor nuisance. They can appear when you cut down a bush or grass. They will fly around and sting you until you leave a portion of the world, or kill them. However, you can catch them with your net and hold them in a bottle. Then you can release them to attack nearby enemies.
This harmless insect is easy to kill, and can't even hurt you, but it can help you. If you lift the hedge (or rock) from off its back, it will start dropping Rupees in an attempt to shake you off its trail. If you collect five green Rupees before he disappears, it will drop a red Rupee.
The Octoballoon is a special floating variety of Octorok. It is sensitive to all but the hottest of attacks. Any attempt to kill it will result in 6 smaller Octo creatures bursting out of its top to attack before disappearing.
These creatures are back from the first Zelda game. Although they can be dispatched with almost any attack, they can still be dangerous because of their ability to fire rocks from their snouts. Luckily, these missiles can be blocked by any shield, as long as you are facing the rock without attacking. This is why Octoroks have taken to traveling in numbers. When there are several rocks whizzing around at once, they can be a bit more formidable. However, defeating will often earn blue or occasionally even red rupees.
These little crabs are found near The Waterfall Of Wishing, And where you found the Ice Rod.
Poes are like Hues in the Light World. Basically all they have is a lantern, and they fly around.
Slimes are defenseless creatures that typically appear as the result of sprinkling Magic Powder on a more dangerous enemy, or using the magic of the Quake medallion. In this form, any enemy can be quickly defeated.
They are back from the original game. They hop from one location to another.

These birds fly around you in circles when you walk through the desert.
Using special defensive techniques, the Thieves of the Lost Woods are impervious to all forms of attack, physical or magical. They cannot be harmed, nor can they harm you. But if they collide with you in the woods, expect to drop some supplies and Rupees that Thieves will be quick to collect from you.
This rabbit hops out from thick grass. He is easy to kill, but you can play a trick on it to earn Rupees. Instead of attacking the Toppi, destroy the grass that he jumped from. He will land helplessly on his back. Approach him and he will call you a thief, and give you Rupees, Bombs, Arrows or whatnot to leave him alone.
They live in water bodies and pop out of their whirlpools. They fire magic attacks at you. To block a magic attack you need to have a Magic Shield or Mirror Shield.
Devilants are only found in the Desert Palace. Red Devilants shoot 3 fireballs, Blue Devilants Just pop up, And do no damage to Link.
Eyegores are magical statues that normally sleep. They only wake up when you get close enough to them. Then their single eye opens up and they begin to chase you. You can only hurt them when they are awake. Furthermore, Red Eyegores can only be damaged by bow and arrow attacks.
They can be killed with a strike from the Boomerang.
They charge at you when you're in front of them.
The blue skeletons are mostly harmless and easily killed. The red skeletons will back away when attacked (so you do no damage) and then throw a bone at you. To kill these skeletons, you must back them into a corner where they cannot back out any further.
Skull Stalfos drop down from the ceiling, only stopping long enough to deliver their floating skulls. The body floats back up to the ceiling, leaving the head behind to attack you.
They can be killed by attacking them with the Hookshot.
