Bounder

Bounders are small fish enemies in Zelda's Adventure, appearing primarily in the Forest of Albon. Usually they are found in water, where they can swim around, and to attack, they spit balls of water in any of the four cardinal directions. However, they do not aim at Zelda, unlike most other single-projectile enemies in the game. When found outside of water, they can still move, though in one section of the Forest of Albon with no water at all, they cannot spit. One additionally appears in the water in the Forest of Canvula, though due to its specific placement it just stays in one place while flailing around wildly, occasionally spitting.

Trivia

 * In the section of the Forest of Albon directly to the north of Shurmak's seclusion in the Great Dry Canyon, the Bounders' projectiles are miscolored purple and black.
