Ampilus is an unusual crab like desert-dwelling enemy who's only mode of attack is rolling at Link with it's shell electrically charged. On the inside of its hard spiral shell is a soft crab. The simplest way to kill the Ampilus is by blowing it up with a bomb. The other way to kill the Ampilus is to stun it by either shield bashing it or leading it into a wall. Once it is stunned you can easily destroy it by hitting it with your sword.
==''Skyward Sword''==
Ampilus is an unusual crab-like desert-dwelling enemy whose only mode of attack is rolling at [[Link (Skyward Sword)|Link]] with its [[electricity|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 [[Rupee]]s. 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 Egg]]s that can only harm Link when he is holding them.

When  caught in a time shift zone Amphilusses turn into a baby that can only harm Link when he is holding them. The babies give off a periodical electric charge which is used to turn on the power to the nodes.
