Characteristics

A Link to the Past



Link's Awakening



Oracle of Seasons and Oracle of Ages

In Oracle of Seasons and Oracle of Ages, Mini-Moldorms appear with a black body with green outline in comparison to its gold body in A Link to the Past. In Oracle of Ages, Mini-Moldorms can be found in Moonlit Grotto, Skull Dungeon, Jabu-Jabu's Belly, Ancient Tomb, and Hero's Cave.

In Oracle of Seasons, the Black Beast hidden on an island off the Western Coast is identical to a Mini-Moldorm. If Link uses a Mystery Seed on the object buried there, it brings the Black Beast back to life. After defeating him, Link obtains the X-Shaped Jewel. Other instances where Mini-Moldorms appear are in Poison Moth's Lair, Unicorn's Cave, Explorer's Crypt, Sword & Shield Maze, Temple Remains, and Hero's Cave.

A Link Between Worlds



In A Link Between Worlds, Mini-Moldorms appear similarily to their appearance in A Link to the Past. Purple Mini-Moldorms are a stronger variant of Mini-Moldorm.
