Manhandla Stalk

Manhandla Stalks are the individual stalks of Manhandla that are detached from his body. They appear in Hyrule Warriors and its reissues. Unlike Manhandla, the individual stalks do not have protective armor. Manhandla Stalks can only use an attack in which they rapidly spit seeds onto the battlefield or a base. Like the unarmored Manhandla heads, Manhandla Stalks are also vulnerable to the Boomerang and Gale Boomerang, both of which can defeat a Manhandla Stalk in one hit.

During The Sorceress of the Valley, if Manhandla loses enough health, he retreats and then re-emerges as five Manhandla Stalks a few seconds later. Defeating a certain one reveals the actual Manhandla.

Lana can also summon Manhandla Stalks as part of her Summoning Gate moveset. These Manhandla Stalks can perform attacks similar to those used by Manhandla heads, such as their toxic dust attack.
