'''Like Likes''' are upright tube-shaped monsters | |||
'''Like Likes''' are upright tube-shaped monsters that appear throughout ''[[The Legend of Zelda (series)|The Legend of Zelda]]'' series, starting with ''[[The Legend of Zelda (video game)|The Legend of Zelda]]''. They are capable of swallowing [[Link]], whose [[shield]] they eat, just before spitting him back out. In some games, Link can recover his stolen armor by defeating them, and in some games can also avoid having his shield stolen by wiggling free. They are commonly either gelatinous or worm-like, and usually a dull earthy color. | |||

Highly atypical Like Likes appear in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past]]''. They appear as long-tongued, hopping plants that are called '''Pikits''' in the English guide. They are capable of eating a large number of Link's items, including [[Rupee]]s and the [[Red Shield]]. However, they cannot eat the [[Mirror Shield]]. They appear outside the [[Swamp Palace]] and the [[Ice Palace]]. | |||

In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past | In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past/Four Swords]]'', more traditional Like Likes appear alongside Pikits, appearing right outside the new [[Shield Shop]] and in the [[Palace of the Four Sword]]. They are capable of eating every type of shield, and use their [[Game Boy]] sprites, but colored yellow. | ||

In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening]]'', Like Likes appear like they do in the first game, and can eat his normal shield, but not the unique Mirror Shield. If Link defeats a Like Like that ate his shield, he will be able to recover his shield from the beast. They first appear north of the [[Woods of Mystery|Mysterious Woods]].

When Link approaches, they will move their mouth towards him while undulating it. If they successfully eat him, they can at his [[Deku Shield]] or [[Hylian Shield]]. In this game only, they are also capable of eating his special [[tunic]]s. Everything they eat can be recovered. When defeated, they will appear to melt. They appear in the [[Bottom of the Well]], [[Fire Temple]], [[Spirit Temple]], and [[Shadow Temple]]. | ||

In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask]]'', Like Likes are depicted as aquatic creatures, being found primarily in the waters of [[Great Bay]]. They are incapable of stealing anything except the [[Hero's Shield]] from normal Link. They use the same model and behaviors from ''Ocarina of Time'', but come in two sizes, though they act exactly the same. One of the large ones stands in place in a waterfall basin, being placed directly over a [[Piece of Heart]]. At night, a few large ones can be found on the beaches. If Link wears the [[Stone Mask]] near these, they will still follow him, but not attempt to eat him. | In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask]]'', Like Likes are depicted as aquatic creatures, being found primarily in the waters of [[Great Bay]].

In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons]]'' and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages]]'', Like Likes look and act as they do in ''Link's Awakening''. However, they are shaded blue. Link can use the [[Like Like Ring]] to turn into a Like Like, resembling the ones from ''Link's Awakening DX''. In the former game, there is also a single location on the map that spawns an infinite amount of Like Likes from the sides of the screen. | |||

In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap]]'', Like Likes are brown and found in tunnels accessible with the [[Mole Mitts]]. They pop out of the ground in areas with space and no tall dirt, and slowly follow after Link. If Link goes to an area that previously had tall dirt, they will go back under and wait for him. If one captures him, he can escape with his shield if he wiggles enough. A popular book in the [[Hyrule Library]] is apparently about how to keep them as pets. A variant from ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords|Four Swords]]'' called [[Rupee Like]] also appears, being smaller and more yellow than normal Like Likes. | In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap]]'', Like Likes are brown and found in tunnels accessible with the [[Mole Mitts]].

===''Super Smash Bros. Melee''=== | ===''Super Smash Bros. Melee''=== | ||
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', Like Likes are found in the [[Underground Labyrinth]] and rarely from crates or barrels. They will eat any fighter to come near, damaging them once they spit them out. In one area to the lower left, one will fall from above. They resemble their ''Ocarina of Time'' appearance, but darker green and with more animated sliminess. Their English trophy claims that their name supposedly comes from an old, almost indecipherable Hyrulian proverb negatively comparing world leaders to them, "''Shield-eaters and world leaders have many likes alike.''" The Japanese version, however, states that it is a reference to a Japanese proverb 「蓼食う虫も好き好き」 (''To each their own tastes''), substituting 「たて」 (shield) for the similarly-written 「たで」 ({{wp|Persicaria hydropiper|water pepper}}). | In ''[[Super Smash Bros.
