Ganewmedes are notably stronger than in the previous entries of the series, and now have claws instead of tentacles to move around with. Ganewmedes also now have a unique way of attacking. Rather than trying to shoot Pit down, they will only counterattack if they are hit with a projectile from him. This makes them quite dangerous as the spiked weapons they launch can continuously block Pit's attacks whilst homing in on him. On certain occasions in battle, Ganewmedes may also intentionally crawl into Pit's line of fire to utilize their attack strategy against him. Because of this, melee attacks are the most effective way of dealing with these Underworld monsters. Ganewmede' spike projectiles suspiciously resemble [[Tros]]. | Ganewmedes are notably stronger than in the previous entries of the series, and now have claws instead of tentacles to move around with.
