'''Hiploop''' is the Japanese name for the more commonly found Zelda enemy known as [[Helmasaur]]. However, in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]'' the enemies did not receive the same name translation and instead retained the name Hiploop. In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords|Four Swords]]'' the Hiploop is identical to ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap|The Minish Cap]]'' counterpart, however, it was given the name Hiploop instead of Helmasaur. The face on these small creatures are its weakspot, however they are protected by a mask that can be pulled off. | |||
==Majora's Mask== | |||

''' | In '''Majora's Mask''', Hiploop are larger insect-like enemies and only some of them can be seen wearing protective masks. They are first encountered in [[Woodfall]], just outside the entrance to the [[woodfall Temple]]. They appear on narrow platforms and will charge at [[Link]], trying to knock him off the ledge. Link can defeat them while in [[Deku Link]] form by first stunning them with a [[Spin Attack]], and then using a [[Bubble Blast]] to finish off the enemy. | ||
Alternatively, if Link is in Hylian form, he can his [[Shield]] to deflect the Hiploop back when it charges, then allowing time for a counterattack with his sword. | |||
When Link later encounters the Hiploop within the [[Stone Tower Temple]], it will now have its large metal blue mask. Link can remove this mask by using the [[Hookshot]], [[Bomb]]s, or the [[Blast Mask]]. At this point the enemy can be defeated quite easily. | |||
==Four Swords== | |||
In ''Four Swords'' the Hiploop are the identical enemy as the Helmasaur from ''The Minish Cap]]. They are small red creatures with an iron mask that will charge at Link when they see him. In Four Swords Link can remove their mask by ising the [[Magnetic Gloves]], making the enemies helpless to almost any single attack. While it is much more difficult, Link can defeat a Hiploop before his mask is removed by attacking the enemy from its backside. | |||
