These tentacled enemies are commonly encountered in [[Skyworld]]. They attack [[Pit]] in a similar fashion to the [[Commyloose]], preferring to [[Enemy Tactics#Pounce|leap]] at him from below. Sufficiently [[Arrow of Strength|powered-up]], these monsters provide a good source for Hearts and experience points. | |||

''An octopus creature that eats on the clouds in the sky to keep alive. Violent and very irritable, it appears suddenly beneath Pit.'' | |||

Octos appear in this game, although their name is now spelled as "Octus", likely due to a translation error. | |||

The Octos returns in this game as a fairly common enemy usually encountered during air battles. Its design looks very similar to its prior appearances, but it's now able to attack by spewing a circular loop of smoky ink that can either be completely avoided or flown through by Pit. During higher intensities, the ink will seemingly be electrified to make it more dangerous to touch. | |||
====Manual Description==== | |||
''An Octos is a flying relative of the octopus, a water-based animal you may have seen during monster movies. It sprays ring-shaped jets of ink from its mouth that looks fun to fly through but will hurt you if touched.'' | |||
