[[File:Pytops.png|200px|thumb|left|The battle begins with Phytops]] The first part of the battle will have Phytops stick out two of its tentacles, which will put a constraint on where Link can go. The body of Phytops, including its eye, is covered by purple goo that is damaging to Link. Link will need to use the whip on one of the tentacles, which will pull out a spike. While holding onto the spike, Link can then launch it at the face of Phytops. <br/><br/> | [[File:Pytops.png|200px|thumb|left|The battle begins with Phytops]] The first part of the battle will have Phytops stick out two of its tentacles, which will put a constraint on where [[Link]] can go.

If the spike hits Phytops, it will clear a small area of the purple goo that covers its eye. After two direct hits with thorns, the eye of Phytops will be uncovered. This will allow Link to grab another spike from a tentacle and launch it at the eye of Phytops. Phytops will fall to the ground stunned for a short period of time, leaving its eye vulnerable to further attacks. Link can then run over and slash away at its eye with the sword until Phytops gets back up.<br/><br/> | If the spike hits Phytops, it will clear a small area of the purple goo that covers its eye.
