Rock

, also known as , are recurring in .
==Uses==
Rocks usually yield items when destroyed, such as Hearts, Rupees, Arrows, and Bombs. They also serve as obstacles that must be lifted and thrown, or destroyed with Bombs or a Hammer. When thrown, they can also damage some enemies.
To move or lift some Rocks, Link must wear certain items. In , Link must wear the Power Gloves to lift both small and large light gray Rocks, while the Titan's Mitt is required to lift dark gray ones. He can also use the Pegasus Shoes to destroy piles of Rocks. In , large gray Rocks are bomb-proof and can only be lifted by Adult Link with the Silver and Golden Gauntlets, whereas brown Rocks can be either bombed or destroyed with the Megaton Hammer, and red ones can only be destroyed with the Hammer. In , brown Rocks can be bombed, destroyed with Goron Link's punching technique, or blown up with a Powder Keg, whereas red ones can only be destroyed with the latter two methods. Large gray Rocks, which can be found underwater, cannot be interacted with in this episode, although Goron Link was originally supposed to be able to lift those when found on land. In , Link can also use Bomb Arrows to destroy Rocks from afar.
Rocks also appear as visual hints, mostly pointing out hidden areas or covering secrets. In , Magical Warp Tiles can sometimes be found under Rocks. In , Rock circles denote the location of secret grottoes that can be opened by using a Bomb, the Megaton Hammer, or by playing the "Song of Storms." Some large Rocks also hide Treasure Chests underneath them. In , some Rocks hide lost Maiamais underneath them.
In the Dark World and Lorule, Rocks are replaced with Skulls, which may occasionally turn out to be Stals.
==Variations==
===Pillars===
In , huge pillars can be found blocking the entrance to the Great Fairy Fountain outside Ganon's Castle and within the castle itself. They can only be lifted by wearing the Golden Gauntlets. These pillars are automatically thrown by Link during a cutscene after being lifted. The pillars, although they were never used, were present on the Japanese 1.0 version of .TCRF - The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask
In , pillars appear as part of Link's Power Gloves moveset.
===Stone Watchers===
In , Stone Watchers appear in various locations hiding secret caves beneath them, or covering secret passages and entrances. They can only be lifted by wearing the Power Bracelets found inside the Fire Mountain, where the first Stone Watcher is found blocking the exit.
===Rupee Rocks===
In the Game Boy Advance version of and in , some Rocks have glimmers of green light around them. If Link lifts the Rock, it will turn into a normal Rock. Though if struck by his Sword, Rupees will pop out for a limited time every time the Rock is hit. If Link hits the Rock fast enough, higher value Rupees will also start appearing.
