'''Toadpolis''' are enemies appearing in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'', ''[[Link's Crossbow Training]]'' and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]]''. They appear very rarely in only a few places. Where they can be found include early on in the [[Goron Mines]] lava in a fire variation and behind the [[Lake Hylia]] [[Howling Stone]] in their more common water variation.  They appear as frogs but act very similarly to Octoroks seen in previous [[:Category:3D Games|3D ''Zelda'' games]]. Larger versions of these monsters can be seen swimming underwater like fish in the [[Goron Mines]].
