Shell Blade

Shell Blades are aquatic clam-like enemies that appear in Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask and Twilight Princess. They will will lunge themselves at Link if he gets too close. When they do this, Link must block them with his shield or move out of the way. They will stop and eventually open up, exposing their muscle ligaments which Link can attack with the Hookshot in Ocarina of Time, as Zora Link in Majora's Mask, and with the clawshot or sword in Twilight Princess. In Majora's Mask, Shell Blades guard some of the stolen Zora Eggs in Pirates' Fortress.
