{{Term|BotW|Link|link}} can obtain {{Term|BotW|Epona}} in {{BotW}} by scanning either the {{SSB|-}} Link or {{TP|-}} Zelda 30th Anniversary Link [[amiibo]].

Once registered at a {{Term|BotW|Stable|link}}, {{Term|BotW|Epona}} cannot be obtained more than once through the amiibo, even if she is deceased; if she dies, she can be revived by {{Term|BotW|Malanya|link}}.
