In ''Link's Awakening'', Blaino is one of the [[Mini-Boss|mini-bosses]] of [[Turtle Rock (Link's Awakening)|Turtle Rock]]. His gloves completely block [[Link]]'s attacks in the front, so Link must hit him with his [[sword]] from behind. Blaino leaves himself open to damage after using a powerful dash forward, which, if it hits, can send Link back to the entrance of the [[dungeon]]. He also has the ability to stun Link with his punches, which can leave him helpless as Blaino dashes toward him and sends him flying away. After he is defeated, a portal to the entrance appears in addition to a [[Fairy]]. In the next room, Link can obtain the [[Magic Rod]] if he has found the hidden room with a switch and activated it previously to knock down the barrier in front of the rod's [[Treasure Chest]].

Blaino lives in [[Blaino's Gym|his gym]] in [[Spool Swamp]] in ''Oracle of Seasons''. He took [[Ricky]]'s boxing gloves.<ref>{{Cite|OoS|682|Ricky}}</ref> Link can fight against Blaino without using any [[Magical Ring]]s or other weapons besides his fists for 10 [[Rupee]]s, but if he cheats the bet goes up to 20 Rupees.<ref>{{Cite|OoS|745|Blaino}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|OoS|747|Blaino}}</ref> Once he defeats him, Blaino pronounces Link the new champion and gives back Ricky's gloves.<ref>{{Cite|OoS|750|Blaino}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|OoS|103|In-Game Description}}</ref>
