[[File:Octorok (The White Knight).png|thumb|200px|right|An Octorok in "The White Knight" episode]]
Octoroks appear in several episodes of the {{TLoZ|TV Series}}. They first appear in "[[The White Knight]]" after a [[Tinsuit]] calls an Octorok from the [[Underworld]], which grabs a swordless Link and throws him into a nearby barn. The hero then takes out a [[Magic Rope]] and ties it around the Octorok, but the octopus-like foe begins to run away as it drags Link with him. Fortunately, [[Prince Facade]] appears and halts the Octorok in its path, blocking one of the Octorok's attacks with his shield and quickly defeating it with a shot from his [[crossbow]]. An Octorok also briefly appears in "[[Kiss'n Tell]]", where the foe uses its tentacles to trip [[Princess Zelda]] and thus take her into the Underworld.

Interestingly, in "The White Knight" and "The Moblins Are Revolting" episodes, Octoroks shoot light balls that explode when they come in contact with something; however, in the "Doppelganger", they can be seen shooting the usual rocks instead.

Octoroks make several minor appearances throughout the issues of {{TLoZ|Valiant Comics}} published by Valiant Comics. Their depiction is almost identical to their artwork from {{TAoL|-}}. They first appear in "[[The Legend of Zelda (Valiant Comics)/Issue 1#Missing in Action|Missing in Action]]" as one of the enemies that go after Princess Zelda and the [[Triforce of Wisdom]]. "[[To the First Power]]" also shows these foes capturing Link outside one of the Underworld entrances under the orders of a [[Wizzrobe]]. Octoroks once again appear in "[[The Legend of Zelda (Valiant Comics)/Issue 4#Queen of Hearts|Queen of Hearts]]", where they battle against Link and [[Queen Seline]] to keep them from breaking the magic container that will give the queen her magical powers back.

Octoroks appear after Princess Zelda frees Link from the [[Crystal]] in {{TCT}}. If the heroes choose to leave the [[Midoro Palace]], they will struggle since Link feels too weak to walk. They eventually reach a forest and decide to rest, but suddenly Octoroks ambush them, and although Zelda tells Link that they should run away, the young hero feels too tired and thus must stay and fight. Choosing to stay and fight results in Zelda and Link taking cover from the Octoroks' attacks, with Link giving the Princess some advice to defeat the Octoroks. By the use of [[Zelda's Bow|her bow]], Zelda defeats the monsters, but is exhausted from the battle. They then witness a [[Pink Fairy]] glowing out from the corpse of one of the dead Octoroks. The Fairy thanks the heroes for freeing her from the monsters and rewards them by showing them where to find the weapon that will defeat [[Ganon]]: the [[Spear]].

If the heroes choose to run away, Zelda will put her arm around Link's shoulders and begin to run. Trying to pull Link with all her might, she fails since she cannot outrun the Octoroks' attacks while carrying Link. A rock strikes Zelda's leg, causing the heroes to collapse and giving the foes a chance to surround them. The page ends with a Game Over as Zelda realizes she cannot hope to defeat all of the Octoroks by herself.

{{TSP}} briefly mentions the Octoroks when [[Charles of Moria]] is bragging of his accomplishments as a knight. He comments about the time that he defeated twenty Octoroks with just one swing of his ax, although Link is unimpressed by this feat, saying that "Octoroks are easy prey."

Octoroks appear as enemies in {{TFoE}}, {{TWoG}} and {{ZA}}. In the first two games, Octoroks appear as large enemies encountered on land that spit arching stones. They have a considerably high amount of health, requiring several Sword strikes to defeat, but can also be instantly defeated by throwing a Bomb at them or by using the [[Power Glove]]. In {{TFoE|-}}, they can be found in [[Firestone Lake]] and [[Fortress Centrum]]. In {{TWoG|-}}, they are exclusively found on the shores of [[Tykogi Tower]].

In {{ZA|-}}, Octoroks bare a much closer resemblance to real-world octopuses. They are usually encountered near bodies of water, most notably in the [[Shrine of Water]]. They however do not spit rocks at Zelda. They take several hits of the [[Items in Zelda's Adventure#Wand|Wand]] to defeat.

There, hes attacked by a group of {{Plural|LA (Cagiva)|Octorok}}, forcing him to run away. Once {{Term|LA (Cagiva)|Link}} retreives his {{Term|LA (Cagiva)|Sword}}, the {{Term|LA (Cagiva)|Owl|link}} appears, scaring the {{Plural|LA (Cagiva)|Octorok}} away.

In {{SSBM}}, Octoroks appear as enemies in the {{ssb|Underground Maze}} level of {{ssb|Adventure Mode}}. They can, but rarely, be found in other modes in boxes. Like in the ''Zelda'' games, Octoroks will start shooting rocks at the approaching fighter. For every Octorok a player KOs, 150 points are added to their {{ssb|List of Bonuses|Octorok KO Bonus}}. These Octoroks are only found on land, despite being based on the aquatic Octoroks found in {{OoT|-}}. They also appear as a [[Trophies in Super Smash Bros. Melee|Trophy]].

{{Ambig|Start}}
In {{FPTRR}}, a creature similar to Octoroks called '''Octopuses''' appear in the hidden mini-games run by [[Salona]]. Instead of shooting rocks, the Octopuses shoot balls, which [[Tingle]] must deflect back at various targets behind them. Appearance-wise, they are red and resemble the traditional Octoroks found in the 2D ''Zelda'' games, with the characteristics of those found in {{OoT|-}} and {{MM|-}}.
There is also an ingredient Tingle can acquire called Salty Octopus, which also looks similar to an Octorok.

{{Plural|HW|Octorok}} appear while loading an [[Adventure Mode]] Map Battle in {{HW}}. Their appearance is based on the red Octorok from {{TLoZ|-}}. An Octorok will move between Link and the [[Triforce]] and shoot a rock at Link before being defeated. While Link is holding the Triforce, a second Octorok will then appear behind Link and shoot another rock at him, causing him to drop the Triforce. Link will then run away and the Octorok will chase after him.
