Ampilus are enemies from Skyward Sword.[1]
Skyward Sword
Ampilus is an unusual crab-like desert-dwelling enemy whose only mode of attack is rolling at Link with its electrically-charged shell . On the inside of its hard spiral shell is a soft crab. The simplest way to defeat the Ampilus is by blowing it up with a Bomb. The other way to defeat the Ampilus is to stun it by either shield bashing it or leading it into a wall. Once it is stunned, Link can easily destroy it by hitting it with his Sword. When defeated, it drops 5 Rupees. When surfacing on streams of sink-sand, Link can defeat it and get on top of its shell to reach areas that he cannot reach without aid.
When caught in a Timeshift Stone-affected area, Ampilus turn into Ampilus Eggs that can only harm Link when he is holding them.
