The Secret Moblin is a type of Moblin that instead of walking around the Overworld trying to harm Link, it will hide in caves across Hyrule with its money. Once Link stumbles upon their secret hideout, the Secret Moblin will reward Link with a certain amount of Rupees. After Link receives the Moblin's Rupees, it will utter "IT'S A SECRET TO EVERYBODY", one of the most recognized quotes in video games history.
