Bokoblins are omnivorous creatures that eat both veggies and meat. Bokoblins may not know how to swim as in all appearances bokoblin enemies are killed when they go in deep water.

In Wind Waker Bokoblins have; fur, batlike ears, piglike noses, arrow shaped tails, a horn on their forehead, and three fingers.

In Twilight Princess, Bokoblins have a more humanoid appearance with: Hylian like ears, noses instead of snouts, no tail, and five fingers.

In Skyward Sword Bokoblins have an appearance resembling Oni from Japanese mythology. They have: rotund noses, no tail, floppy ears, two black horns on top of their head, five fingers and white hair.

In Breath of the Wild Bokoblins appears similar to their wind Wind Waker but without tails and slightly larger snouts.

Bokoblins are a usually malovent race that has existed in Hyrule since ancient times. Bokoblins worshipped the Demon King [[Demise]] and in the sky era, worked under Ghirahim. Since the rise of Demise's reincarnation, [[Ganon]], Bokoblins have followed him since. Many Bokoblins seem to work as thieves and pirates, taking from other races. Besides their relationship with the various Demon Kings, Bokoblins get along with other monsters and seem to view [[Moblin]]s and [[Lizalfos]] as leadership figures.

Most Bokoblins use weapons made out of wood and bone and all known bokoblin made weapons are made out of these materials. Most Bokoblins wear little clothing outside of torn leather or fur, due to this bokoblins fear bees. The bokoblins who worked under [[Scervo]] had figured out how to copy the designs of the [[Ancient Robot]]s tech and use it for themselves. These bokoblins wore advanced armor and taser like weapons.

Bokoblins hunt many animals and scrounge areas for food. Bokoblins know how to tame and ride horses, horses kept by Bokoblins in Breath of the Wild have high affection and familiarity with being ridden. Unlike Hylians, Bokoblins do not appear to use a saddle or reins for their animals.  

[[File:TP_Bokoblin.jpg|150px|thumb|right|Twilight Princess Bokoblin]]The Pink Variation is probably the weakest kind of them all, as the only weapon that it carries is a telescope. These Bokoblins are only found on watch towers or rafts around the [[Great Sea]].

[[File:Zelda skyward art-3.jpg|175px|thumb|right|Technoblin]]

Technoblins are ancient Bokoblins that had access to high tech weapons.{{Ref|SS|1972|Fi}} These Bokoblins are often found when a [[Timeshift Stone]] is activated near a Bokoblin Skeleton in [[Lanayru Desert]]. The tactics for defeating this variation are the same as any other sword wielding Bokoblin. Link must be extra careful not to hit the sword they carry as it is electric and can be very dangerous to Link. If Link's Sword makes contact with this weapon, he is shocked and looses one heart.  

Bokoblins appear once more as an enemy in ''Breath of the Wild'', coming in many different varieties, such as the Blue Bokoblin, Silver Bokoblin, and the [[Stalkoblin]]. They can be found all over Hyrule, but tend to gather at various [[Bokoblin Camp|Camps]], with other enemies like the [[Moblin#Breath of the Wild|Moblin]] and [[Lizalfos#Breath of the Wild|Lizalfos]]. They have 13 HP. They typically wield a range of Bokoblin-crafted weapons, including the [[Boko Spear]], [[Boko Bat]], and [[Boko Bow]]. Recoverable materials include [[Bokoblin Horn]]s and [[Bokoblin Fang|Fangs]].

A slightly stronger variant of the Red Bokoblin. Often seen wielding reinforced boko-weapons, such as [[Spiked Boko Bat]]s or [[Spiked Boko Bow]]s. Upon death, they may drop some [[Bokoblin Guts]].

This variant of Bokoblin only appears at night, and behaves very similarly to creatures such as [[Stalchild|Stalchildren]] from previous games. They only have 1 HP, but when struck, their heads will drop to the ground, and will need to be destroyed in order to be fully rid of Stalkoblin. They often appear in groups of 2 or 3.

Bokoblin appear in [[Cadence of Hyrule]] with the Green Bokoblin being the base model. All Bokoblin will raise their weapon in preparation for an attack, before jumping to the adjacent square. The Green Bokoblin will have a single heart of health, where as the stronger [[Red Bokoblin]] have two hearts, and the [[Blue Bokoblin]] have three hearts.

*The initial designs of ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword's]]'' [[Bokoblin]]s looked too cute, and thus were made scarier by sharpening their teeth and making their eyes narrower.{{Ref|pg. 60|[The Bokoblin's] initial designs looked pretty cute, but we realized that if they looked too cute, it took the fun out of attacking them. So, in order to make them look scarier, we sharpened their teeth and made their eyes smaller and narrower.|Designer Kiuchi, ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Historia|Hyrule Historia]]''}}
