In {{OoT|-}} and {{MM|-}}, [[Poe]]s will turn invisible when targeted. When this happens, Link can no longer target or attack them until they turn visible again. The accuracy of this is disputable, as oftentimes, Navi will continue to target the invisible Poe. Certain enemies, like the [[Gold Skulltula]], cannot be targeted for unknown reasons, forcing Link to manually aim his weapons at them.
