'''Holer''' (ホーラ ''Hōra'') is a [[Enemy Tactics#Burrowing|plant-like]] monster found in [[Skyworld]]. Its projectile is slower than that of [[McGoo]] or [[Girin]].
===[[Kid Icarus]]===
==Characteristics==
Holer resembles a spiked, orange cactus rising out of the ground. Holer's spines are much thicker than a traditional cactus. Though it's supposed to be a deity, like [[Uranos]], it's not given much ''gravitas'' in the series. Though pure conjecture, it may simply be small parts of a larger being.
==In ''[[Kid Icarus]]''==
"''Holer is the God of Plants, a cactus creature that grows in the cloud garden in the sky. It does not forgive those who enter the garden.''"
