[[File:Spiny-Beetle-Bush-LA-Sprite.png|left]]The Spiny Beetle is also an enemy from ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|Link's Awakening]]''. They are known for hiding under bushes, rocks, and skulls. Often, they cannot be seen until [[Link]] comes near, at which point they stand up and reveal that they have been hiding beneath the object. The Spiny Beetles under bushes can be easily defeated with the [[sword]], but for the variations with skulls or rocks, Link must first lift the object off of their back with the [[Power Bracelet]].
