[[File:Moblin-Sprite-1.png|left]]Moblins first appear in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'' when Link enters the [[Dark World]] after defeating [[Agahnim]]. Moblins are depicted as Piggish monsters in [[Ganon]]'s image. They can be found patrolling the area around the [[Pyramid of Power]], as well as throughout the overworld within the Dark World. They will walk around with their [[Trident]] spears, tossing them at Link when he draws near. | [[File:Moblin-Sprite-1.png|left]]Moblins first appear in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'' when [[Link (A Link to the Past)|Link]] enters the [[Dark World]] after defeating [[Agahnim]].

Despite their ability to use a projectile weapon, it isn't much of a threat at all. Link can deflect the trident spears with his [[Fire Shield]] and even if they hit, they will only deal 1/2 a heart of damage. More dangerous than that if the Moblin simply makes contact with Link while walking around, it will deal two full hearts of damage. | Despite their ability to use a projectile weapon, it isn't much of a threat at all.

Bulldog Moblins appear in the [[Sacred Forest Meadow]] when Link returns as an adult. They will charge at him should he enter their field of vision. While charging, Link cannot hurt them.

There is a stronger version of the Moblin called a [[Club Moblin]] that guards the entrance to the [[Forest Temple (Ocarina of Time)|Forest Temple]] and is notably more difficult. It swings a giant club at Link, shooting out clouds of dust which will knock Link back if he is hit. It is vulnerable to the [[Fairy Bow|Bow]] and the Hookshot, though the Hookshot isn't practical to use until upgraded to the [[Longshot]]. The way Link can get past them is by running to the left then the right or in reverse. Once Link gets behind them he can slash away with his sword. They take three hits to kill with the [[Master Sword]]. Every time Link re-enters the area, the Club Moblin will reappear. | There is a stronger version of the Moblin called a [[Club Moblin]] that guards the entrance to the [[Forest Temple (Ocarina of Time)|Forest Temple]] and is notably more difficult.

In addition to being a boss, Great Moblin, and his followers are also portrayed as recurring characters within the story. If a Linked game is started after completion of one game, [[Great Moblin]] will remember [[Link (Oracle Series)|Link]] from their encounter in the prior game. For example, if one uses the code given at the end of ''Oracle of Ages'' in the beginning of ''Oracle of Seasons'', Great Moblin will wonder if Link followed him from [[Labrynna]] to [[Holodrum]]. | ||
A [[Moblin Ring]] also exists to turn Link into a green Bulldog Moblin. Doing so prevents Link from doing any action but moving, but prevents him from being engulfed by [[Like Like]]s, or slipping on Ice. | A [[Moblin Ring]] also exists to turn Link into a green Bulldog Moblin.

Pig-like Moblins appear most notably inside the [[Forsaken Fortress]] as guards. The first time Link enters the fortress, he is without a sword. Due to this, if a Moblin catches him, they will throw him in prison should they see him. They aren't the brightest of enemies and can be easily fooled by hiding beneath a barrel. The second time through the Moblins won't be frightened to attack the young hero with their spears. Moblin Spears are among the weapons that Link can use to fight with. | Pig-like Moblins appear most notably inside the [[Forsaken Fortress]] as guards.

Moblins also appear in [[Hyrule Castle]] frozen in time before Link draws the [[Master Sword]].

Similar to ''Link's Awakening'', Ganon does not appear in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap|The Minish Cap]]''. It is established some moblins were among the monsters sealed within the Minish cap chest. They are released by Vaati, and seem to be used by him as troops. | Similar to ''Link's Awakening'', Ganon does not appear in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap|The Minish Cap]]''.

Moblins appear partway through the game and frequent the overworld. Two variants appear, [[Spear Moblin]]s and [[Bow Moblin]]s. Spear Moblins will charge at Link, and Bow Moblins will fire arrows. They can be easily defeated by stunning them with the [[Boomerang]] and then slashing them with Link's sword. | Moblins appear partway through the game and frequent the overworld.

Moblins in ''Skyward Sword'' have changed in appearance quite a bit. Now they are fat, red skinned, humanoid with noses, floppy eared similar to a canine, and are bigger than Link himself. Moblins are among [[Demise]]'s worshippers, and work under [[Ghirahim]] in their master's absence. Moblins are a very common enemy when revisiting [[Faron Woods]] and drop a lot of rupees. | Moblins in ''Skyward Sword'' have changed in appearance quite a bit.

Moblins look extremely different compared to other installments in the series. This time they are much bigger with a longer snout. In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]'', they usually wield large club weapons. They come in many varieties. Link can find them in various enemy encampments across [[Hyrule]]. | Moblins look extremely different compared to other installments in the series. This time they are much bigger with a longer snout.

A good strategy is to use Two-Handed Weapons to knock over the Moblin before it can attack. Other weapons will not make them fall, but instead merely flinch. Moblins have excellent reach and can knock down Link with a single punch, but have difficulties fending off attacks from close quarters. If accompanied by [[Bokoblin]]s but unarmed, and having no weapons within reach, Moblins may grab Bokoblins from where they stand and throw them at Link. | A good strategy is to use Two-Handed Weapons to knock over the Moblin before it can attack.
