The Octoballoon appears just southeast of Lake Hylia in A Link to the Past. Only single Octoballoon appears in the entire game.
Its appearance is similar to that of an Octorok, except it is significantly bloated. Filled with air, the Octoballoon floats above the ground, but the air flowing in becomes too much as it will cause the Octoballoon to burst into eight smaller creatures that resemble miniature Octoroks. These mini-enemies will bounce around for a few seconds and then they will disappear.
Link is able to hit the Octoballoon before it blows up, but doing so is rather pointless, as it will blow itself up momentarily. Furthermore, Link can defeat the mini-octoroks left behind, but since they disappear in just a matter of seconds, there isn't much purpose in doing so. These mini-octoroks will do a 1/2 heart of damage if they come into contact with Link.
