==Mainline appearances==
======
In , there are two types of Zirro, and both appear in the [[Dark World]. Regular blue Zirros simply swarm close to Link and attempt to get in his path to cause damage. They use their wings to their advantage, keeping at a distance and swiftly dodging close-range weapons like Swords, though if Link is fast enough, they can be destroyed using a blade. A green Zirro however will drop small and dangerous explosives if they spot Link, and are far more dangerous. The Bombs will explode on contact with the ground. They are however less resilient to attacks.
======
Zirros are one of the most powerful enemies on the Overworld in . They drop Bombs which can inflict a lot of damage. Zirros are resilient and very swift, but regularly leave behind a Fairy upon defeat.
======
In , green Zirros return and attack in much the same way they did in . They appear solely in Lorule. They remain at a distance until they close in to strike. The best way to deal with a Zirro is to block its explosive with a Shield and then follow up with an attack with Link's blade. As well as the green Zirros, blue Snowball Zirros appear on Lorule's Death Mountain.
