Devalant

Debirando are monsters that appear in, and. They both appear and behave similar to that of a larval antlion.

Characteristics and Weaknesses
Debirando are giant, burrowing insects with large snapping pincers that live in desert regions. They create sinkholes in the sand as they burrow underneath, drawing in their prey. Red Debirandos are also able to spit fireballs over a long distance. If Link gets caught in the sinkhole, it is virtually impossible to escape, so the young hero will have to fight the Debirando up close while it attempts to seize him with its claws. They are not particularly strong, but they can cause a lot of damage if Link gets caught in the sand trap. Like many desert enemies, they are especially weak to the Ice Rod.

Trivia
