Golden beast

The four golden beasts are unique enemies found on the overworld in The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons. They are each slightly more powerful versions of a different enemy, and each have the same amount of health as each other (26 normal hits from the Wooden Sword). They are each found in a different area in a specific season. The Octorok appears in Spool Swamp south of the Subrosia portal in the summer, the Moblin appears in the Woods of Winter in front of Snake's Remains in the fall, the Soldier appears on the Western Coast on its northeast edge of beach in spring, and the Lynel appears in Tarm Ruins atop the right side of the mesa near the entrance in the winter. Once all are defeated, an old man found in a cave in North Horon during the summer (when the lake near the Gnarled Root Dungeon is partially dried) gives Link the Red Ring as a reward before disappearing.
