==Uses==

To move or lift some Rocks, [[Link]] must wear certain items in order to do so. In {{ALttP}}, Link must wear the [[Power Glove]]s to lift gray Rocks, while the Titan's Mitt are required to lift brown ones. He can also use the [[Pegasus Boots#A Link to the Past|Pegasus Shoes]] to destroy piles of Rocks. In {{OoT}}, large Rocks can be lifted by Adult Link by using the Silver and Golden Gauntlets, although the brown ones can also be destroyed by using the [[Megaton Hammer]]. In {{TP}}, Link can also use [[Bomb Arrow]]s to destroy Rocks from afar.

Rocks also appear as visual hints, mostly pointing out hidden areas or covering secrets. In {{ALttP|-}}, [[Magical Warp Tile]]s can sometimes be found under Rocks. In {{OoT|-}}, Rock circles denote the location of [[Cave|secret grottoes]] that can be opened by using a Bomb, the Megaton Hammer, or by playing the "[[Song of Storms]]." Some large Rocks also hide beneath them [[Treasure Chest]]s. In {{ALBW}}, some Rocks hide beneath them lost [[Maiamai]]s.

==Variations==

===Pillars===

[[File:HW Link Power Gloves - Stone Pillar.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Link holding a pillar from {{HW|-}}]]

In {{OoT|-}}, huge pillars can be found blocking the entrance to the [[Great Fairy Fountain]] outside [[Ganon's Castle]] and within the castle itself. They can only be lifted by wearing the Golden Gauntlets. These pillars are automatically thrown by Link during a cutscene after being lifted.

===Sparkling Rocks===

In the [[Game Boy Advance]] version of {{ALttP}} and {{ALBW}}, some Rocks have glimmers of green light around them. If Link lifts the Rock, it will turn into a normal Rock. Though if struck by his [[Sword]], Rupees will pop out for a limited time every time the Rock is hit. If Link hits the Rock fast enough, higher value Rupees will also start appearing.
