A Link to the Past

Main article: Goriya (A Link to the Past)

The Goriyas from A Link to the Past are significantly different than any of their appearances from any of the other Zelda titles. Gone are their Boomerangs and any type of versatility at all. Goriyas now act as mimics, very similar to Arm-Mimics from future Zelda titles. In Japan, this is because they are a different creature altogether called the "Coppie"(コッピ).

They will move in the opposite direction as Link does. There are two variations found in the game, with the stronger Red variant capable of shooting fireballs.

Link's Awakening

Main article: Secret Goriya

There is only one Goriya in Link's Awakening. It appears in a cave on Toronbo Shores and can only be seen with the Magnifying Lens. It offers to trade one of Link's items for the Boomerang.

A Link Between Worlds

The Goriyas in A Link Between Worlds are exact replicas of their predecessors from A Link to the Past. These enemies will mirror Link's movements as he moves around the room.

Goriyas come in two colors: Green and Red. Green Goriya can be defeated with a simple sword swipe and most other weapons. Red Goriya are more difficult, as they will block frontal attacks and shoot fireballs. To defeat them, they can be stunned with the Ice Rod, or a Bomb can thrown at them from afar.

This section describes a subject that is or may be outside the core Zelda canon.

Link: The Faces of Evil

Goriya appear in the same fashion as they do in The Wand of Gamelon.

Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon

Goriya are stationary enemies who kneel down and try to toss boomerangs towards Zelda. Goriya's have the ability to toss boomerangs at an angle as well, but they cannot toss them directly downward. The boomerang can be difficult to avoid, but since they are stationary enemies, they are rather simple to defeat. A single sword slash or sword beam will defeat the Goriya. Goriya will always leave behind a green ruby as a spoil once they have been defeated.
