Characteristics

Fokka are only found in the Great Palace. They can leap and deal enormous amounts of damage. Both Red Fokka and Blue Fokka appear within the Great Palace. They are similar to Iron Knuckles in that they attack and block from different directions, but Fokka deal significantly much more damage and have much more health. Fokka are also capable of leaping great distances. Additionally all Fokka variants can shoot Sword Beams at Link.

Much like statues of Iron Knuckles in the first six Palaces, Statues of Fokka appear throughout the Great Palace and can be attacked revealing a Magic Jar or a Red Fokka.[1]

Trivia

  • Both variants of Fokka deal 112 damage with a single hit. This is damage is unsurpassed and equaled only by the Palace Bosses Barba, Gooma, and Thunderbird.
