'''Squid Kids (dangerous)''' are an [[Monsters|enemy]] found in the [[the Mines]] after activating the [[The Mines#Shrine of Challenge|Shrine of Challenge]] or during the [[Quests#Danger In The Deep|Danger In The Deep]] quest. They can also be found in the [[Skull Cavern]] during the [[Quests#Skull Cavern Invasion|Skull Cavern Invasion]] quest.
They behave identical to their weaker counterpart the [[Squid Kid]]. They will move suddenly as well as hover over rocks, and shoot 4 fireballs at the player, which ricochet off walls.
Simply move in quickly and hit them. A [[Slingshot]] can be used with to safely kill them from a distance. Their fireballs can also be hit and destroyed; however, fireballs will ''not'' be stopped by a sword's secondary attack.
