Manhandla

Manhandla in The Legend of Zelda
The third boss of The Legend of Zelda is Manhandla, a very mean flower. The flower will try to devour Link with it's four "hands", as Link tries to dispose of it. The hands of the flower make the speed of the boss very slow, which is an advantage for Link, who's main goal is to rid the flower of it's four hands. Slashing the hands with the sword will rid the boss of it's hands, but with each hand loss, the beast gains more speed. A cleverly placed bomb at the center of the flower will rid the boss of all four hands with a single blow. To defeat the boss, rid the flower of it's four hands. The third piece of Triforce is your reward.

Manhandla in Oracle of Seasons
In Oracle of Seasons, Manhandla is the Boss of the Ancient Ruins, the sixth dungeon. Manhandla starts out by spitting four fireballs at you. The flowers can only be damaged by using the Magical Boomerang when they are open. When Manhandla loses all four flowers, it runs around the room very fast in a "figure 8" motion. Link has to continually hit Manhandla with the Magical Boomerang to expose Manhandla's core. At that point, Link has a minimum amount of tyme to use his Sword to destroy Manhandla's core and defeat it. When Manhandla is destroyed, Link receives a Heart Container and the Blowing Wind, the sixth Essence of Nature.
