'''Epona''' is [[Link]]'s horse, and his main method of transportation in four games. When riding Epona, six icons (either carrots or spurs) will appear. Pressing the A button will give Epona a burst of speed at the cost of one of these carrots or spurs. After a short period of time without sprinting, the icons will be replenished.

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.

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.

Epona is a regular size horse with 4★ stats all around, Gentle in nature, and comes fully trained. Once registered, Epona will have [[Horse (Breath of the Wild)#Customization|her own bridle and saddle that cannot be changed.]]


[[Malanya]]'s Fairy Fountain allows the resurrection of horses that have died, so Epona may only be revived once she's registered in a stable.
