Epona's debut came in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]''. She can be found in the [[Lon Lon Ranch]] with [[Malon]] as a child. She is a shy horse and will keep her distance from everybody other than Malon. When Link talks to Malon, she will teach Link [[Epona's Song]]. During this time, Epona will grow fond of Link. When Link returns as an adult, and after paying [[Ingo]] to take a ride on a horse, Epona's Song can be played to summon and ride Epona around the enclosed area. If Link speaks to Ingo while mounted on Epona, he will challenge Link to a race. Beating him twice will allow Link to keep Epona, and although Ingo tries to keep Link from leaving the ranch, he can simply jump a fence to get out. | Epona's debut came in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]''.

Epona is a very useful copmanion, allowing Link to quickly and safely get from one place to another in the vast land of [[Hyrule]]. Link is completely invincible while on Epona. As an adult, using Epona is the only method of reaching the [[Gerudo Fortress]], before acquiring the [[Longshot]]. Epona also helps tremendously in completing the timed missions within the [[Ocarina of Time Biggoron's Sword Trading Sequence|Trading Sequence]]. | Epona is a very useful copmanion, allowing Link to quickly and safely get from one place to another in the vast land of [[Hyrule]].

Epona makes an appearance in Breath of the Wild, however an [[amiibo]] is required to cause this to occur. After making it off the [[Great Plateau]], and preferably while Link is close to a [[Stable]], the Link amiibo (Super Smash Bros Version) should be used, and Epona will appear. | Epona makes an appearance in Breath of the Wild, however an [[amiibo]] is required to cause this to occur. After making it off the [[Great Plateau]], and preferably while Link is close to a [[Stable]], the Link amiibo (Super Smash Bros Version) should be used, and Epona will appear. Summoning Epona at the Great Plateau will cause her to be trapped there, as there are little to no routes for a horse to climb down, aside from the aforementioned lack of stables in the plateau. | ||
It should be noted that this is a one-time use, even if the amiibo is used again or Epona dies, she can never be summoned into the game again. Subsequent uses of the amiibo will summon treasure chests and other loot instead. Therefore it is recommended to register her immediately so that she can be kept permanently. | It should be noted that this is a one-time use, even if the amiibo is used again or Epona dies, she can never be summoned into the game again.
