The Monoeye is one of three enemies based on an exaggerated facial feature, the others being Mick and [[Specknose]]. As its name implies, this creature is well-known for its massive single eye that gives it almost telescopic vision. This trait allows a Monoeye to find its targets very easily from the sky, giving it the opportunity to attack unexpectedly and in full force with many others of its kind. This monster also has numerous tentacles that help it to fly through the air quickly and efficiently. Like many Underworld enemies, the Monoeye can shoot plasma energy from its eye as a projectile attack. When using this ability, its normally blue or red iris will glow bright orange. | The Monoeye is one of three enemies based on an exaggerated facial feature, the others being Mick and [[Specknose]].

There is also a cellular version of Monoeye in Uprising. Cellular Monoeyes have no visible eye, an the pattern on them are odd, but they act just like Monoeyes. | ||

He's just too divine to touch!''" | "''A Monoeye is a surveillance drone in the Underworld Army.

Monoeyes return as the most common enemies during Pit's adventure, and appear in almost all chapters of the story. They were among the very first monsters revealed in the original trailer, and are now capable of launching projectile attacks like their [[Ganewmede|skeletal counterparts]]. | Monoeyes return as the most common enemies during Pit's adventure, and appear in almost all chapters of the story.

''"This cellular version of the Underworld Monoeye guards Hades's belly from intruders. When not on alert, they plant their tentacles into a wall or ceiling, dangling there and sleeping like the cutest thing you ever did see."'' | |||
Cellular Monoeyes are rare enemies, found only during the land battle of [[Lord of the Underworld]]. | |||

*In [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]] there appears a similar enemy, which are called Feyesh, looking like an orange fish with one big eye and tentacles. Coincidentally, it first appears in the Sea of Clouds level, which is located near and can be considered part of the World of Trophies' [[Skyworld]] area, which is based on the ''Kid Icarus'' world of the same name and is where players first take control of [[Pit]]. However, story-wise, Monoeye does not actually appear in this particular level. | *In [[Super Smash Bros.
