Octoroks (オクタロック, Octorok) are enemies from the The Legend of Zelda series.

Origin

Octoroks made their debut in The Legend of Zelda as a common enemy, and has become a common enemy in later Mario games. They are small, octopus-like creatures that are commonly seen in their red variations, though their exact appearance and behavior changes throughout the series.

Octoroks are among the most basic enemies in the series. They are known for shooting rock projectiles from their cylindrical snouts, but they can be easily defeated by reflecting their projectiles back at them.

enemies in the Zelda games, debuting in the original The Legend of Zelda. Their exact appearance and behavior has varied throughout the series, though they are always octopus-like creatures that attack by shooting rocks, and reflecting their projectiles back at them is a common way to defeat them.

Unusually, while the Ocarina of Time version of Octoroks is the basis of their appearance in Melee, they were only seen in water, and never on land.

Octoroks take their appearance from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time in Melee and Brawl, and from The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword in Smash 4 and Ultimate.

In Super Smash Bros. Melee

As an enemy

Octoroks appear as a common enemy in the Underground Maze stage of Adventure Mode, as well as rarely from Barrels and Crates. Their design is based on their appearance in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.

As the player's fighter approaches them, Octoroks shoot rock projectiles which deals damage and knockback depending on the difficulty. While exceedingly weak in lower difficulties, higher difficulties can scale the power of these projectiles to the point that they can potentially KO characters at high damage. The rocks can be reflected back at the Octorok by simply shielding. Octoroks can be defeated by dealing enough damage, which will result in a Octorok KO bonus where the player receives 150 points for each Octorok KO'd.

These common enemies made their debut in the very first Legend of Zelda game and have been a staple of every game in the series since. They shoot rocks from their mouths at high velocity, but the projectiles are simple to block and do very little damage. Octoroks have low stamina, so they don't pose much of a threat to good fighters.

The Octoroks from The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword appear as enemies. Octoroks usually remain hidden beneath a bush, making them invulnerable to all attacks except grabs. Similar to their Melee counterparts, when a player's fighter approaches, Octoroks can shoot rock projectiles. The Octoroks can be defeated by dealing enough damage to them or reflecting their rock projectiles back at them.

Octorok

This monster looks kinda like an octopus, but it shoots rocks out of its mouth. They've been around since the very first Legend of Zelda game, and the Octorok from Skyward Sword appears in this version of Smash Bros. They'll hide underground, emerging to fire at nearby fighters. If you're quick, you can run forward and pluck them out.

Since the very first Legend of Zelda game, these monsters have been popping up to pelt Link with rocks, and in Smash Run, they'll do the same to you if you get close. Stand right next to them, though, and they'll hide again. Use moves like Reflector to send the rocks back, or close in quickly and try and throw them.

In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

Spirit

The Skyward Sword version of the Octorok appears as a Novice-class primary spirit.

Octorok uses an army of Diddy Kong puppet fighters and are fought on the Great Bay stage. During the battle, Diddy Kong favors their Peanut Popgun move, referencing how Octoroks attack by spitting projectiles at Link.
