Stone Hinox, also known as Dekudon, is a mini-boss from The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening. It is encountered within the Color Dungeon, a dungeon that appears in only the DX re-make of the game. It is similar to the Hinox mini-bosses in the game, but is stronger and has more attacks. It jumps to cause boulders to fall down, and at the same time stuns Link if he remains on the ground.
