In the The Minish Cap manga by Akira Himekawa, Gleerok was cursed by Vaati prior to its battle with Link. Once defeated, Gleerok turns back to its true form, a softer, plesiosaur-like creature. The newly transformed Gleerok then gives Link the Fire Element.

A Gleerok with a hard, rocky shell found in Mount Crenel. Hiding in lava, this beast spews fire on everything it sees.
Gleerok is the guardian of the Cave of Flames high atop Mount Crenel in The Minish Cap. It is the second major Boss of the game, and it guards the Fire Element.
To defeat Gleerok, Link must fire the Cane of Pacci at its back, then climb on top of its neck and slash the yellow thorn on its back with his Sword while it is stunned. Gleerok's main form of attack is to spew fire on any surrounding prey or threats. If all else fails, it will submerge itself in its lava pool and cause major disruptions within its abode, including an increase in lava flow and tectonic disruptions that cause chunks of rock to fall from the ceiling.

Once you've wounded the Gleerok significantly, he'll dive and the pools of lava will swell to the edges of the room.
