Pikit

The Pikit is a hopping plant-like enemy found in A Link to the Past. When Link gets close it extends its tongue to steal from him. Pikits can be found all over the Dark World and should be kept at a distance if Link is saving up Rupees. They will also try to take shields. However, if Link destroys the Pikit, he may retrieve his stolen items.

Trivia
The Pikit's Japanese name is "Like Like", a monster with which it shares the propensity of stealing shields.
