'''Arm-Mimics''' are identical to the [[Mask-Mimic]] aside from not having a mask. They move by mirroring Link in opposite directions. If Link moves up, they will move down. If Link moves left, they will move right. A sword slash will do nothing but push the Arm-Mimic back. To defeat them, use spin attacks or charge through them with the [[Sword]] and [[Pegasus Boots]].

===Link's Awakening===
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|Link's Awakening]]'', Arm-Mimics are found exclusively within [[Dream Shrine]], [[Turtle Rock (Link's Awakening)|Turtle Rock]] and the cave where Link obtains the [[Magnifying Lens]]. Arm-Mimics found in this cave are invisible and can only be seen with the Magnifying Lens. It is easiest to defeat them by using a Spin Attack or Charge Attack making it easier to defeat these enemies. Arm-Mimics deal three hearts of damage, making them the strongest enemies in the game.

==''Oracle of Seasons'' and ''Oracle of Ages''==
The Arm-Mimics in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons|Oracle of Seasons]]'' and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages|Oracle of Ages]]'' look and act exactly the same as in ''Link's Awakening''.

To defeat them, either back them into a wall, or move carefully so that they will slowly move towards Link, and slash away at them a few times with the sword.
