|quote1= <p>Target lock: {{Color|SS Blue|Bilocyte}}</p><p>This species of parasite is currently attached to {{Color|SS Blue|Levias}}. It is known for its enormous optical structure.</p><p>This horrifying life-form utterly controls the mind and body of its host.</p><p>

Ocular Parasite '''Bilocyte''' is the large parasite  that appears in [[Skyward Sword]] and has entered into and possessed the Great Sky Spirit [[Levias]], and is also the boss of [[Thunderhead]].
|quote3= <p>Based on the creature's anatomy, it is probable that this monster's weakness is its central {{Color|SS Red|eye}}.</p><p>However, I can confirm that while the {{Color|SS Red|fins}} on the sides of its head are extended, any attack on the {{Color|SS Red|eye}} will be quite ineffective.</p><p>


== Appearance and Features ==
|quote4= <p>In order to effectively hit the Bilocyte by repelling its projectiles, you must consider the direction in which you are swinging your sword.</p><p>By swinging left and right, you can control the direction of the deflection. Swinging up or down will deflect projectiles straight back.</p>

It also has many tentacles, each holding an eye at the end, extended from holes along Levias's body.


To defeat Bilocyte, [[Link]] first has to use his [[Crimson Loftwing]] to [[Spiral Charge]] into the eyeball at the end of each tentacle hanging out of [[Levias#Skyward Sword|Levia's]] body, once all of the tentacles are destroyed. A single eyeball will be seen hiding in Levia's blowhole.  
To defeat Bilocyte, [[Link]] must first use his [[Crimson Loftwing|Loftwing]] to [[Spiral Charge]] into the eyeball at the end of each tentacle hanging out of Levias's body. Alternatively, using the [[Bow]] and a well-aimed Arrow, Link can shoot down the tentacles from atop Levias. Once all of the tentacles have been destroyed, a single eyeball will attack Link from its position rooted inside Levias's blowhole.


Upon landing [[Link]] will find out that its not another tentacle but the head of the parasite know as Bilocyte. Bilocyte attacks [[Link]] by spitting out large green balls of gunk out of its mouth, which [[Link]] has to position his [[sword]] and knock them back at one of Bilocyte's frills closing it. After shutting both seals,[[ Link]] can either hit more green gunk at Bilocyte's eye or instead use a [[Skyward Strike]] on the creature's eye to bring Bilocyte down instantly. Allowing [[Link]] to release a barrage of sword strikes at its eye. After repeating this process a few more times Bilocyte is destroyed and [[Levias]] is unpossessed.
This larger eyeball is not another tentacle, but the head of the parasite. When it appears, Link must land atop Levias's head to lure it out to battle. Bilocyte attacks Link by spitting green projectiles at him from its mouth, which Link must deflect with his [[Sword]] towards Bilocyte's frills, closing them. After hitting both frills with the parasite's own projectiles, Link can either reflect more projectiles into Bilocyte's eye, use a [[Skyward Strike]], or fire an arrow at it to bring it down, allowing Link to release a barrage of Sword strikes on the creature. After repeating this process a few more times, Bilocyte is destroyed and Levias is restored to his senses.
