-ALttP has two kinds of Tektites: red and blue. Both kinds are found on Death Mountain, and red is stronger than blue.. They usually just jump around randomly, not trying to attack anything. If you try to hit them, they'll jump backwards to avoid you. If they hit a wall while jumping they'll come bouncing back.

-There is also a creature that looks like a water Tektite. However, it is smaller and more spidery. It also seems to have two redish eyes and a kind of tail. In the Japanese Nintendo/Shogakukan guides, this enemy is named "HŌBĀ," not "TEKUTAITO" (Tektite). So, although it is similar to a water Tektite, it might not really be one. It is more likely a precursor to the water Tektite.

-OoT has two kinds of Tektites: red and blue. Red Tektites are found only on land. Blue Tektites can jump just as well on water and on land. Unlike the water Tektites in ALttP and LA, OoT's blue Tektites actually jump on the surface of the water, instead of skimming. These Tektites also have a smaller, red eye. Their jumping power is weaker than in previous games, but it can be difficult to time one's attacks to hit them at just the right time. Unlike previous Tektites, this kind of Tektite stays perfectly still until you get near it. Then it slowly jumps toward you, unless you get too far out of its range. Unlike other Tektites, this Tektite makes noise when you injure or kill it. In OoT, a Tektite can be flipped on its back with the Megaton Hammer. This can be done in MM with the Goron Pound. Tektites skid amusingly out of control if you lure them onto ice. MM only has the blue Tektites. They can be found near the Mountain Village.

-In the *real* world, a tektite is a kind of rock. Tektites are formed when a meteorite hits the earth. Molten matter is ejected into outer space at supersonic speeds. As they cool, they aerodynamically form into teardrops, flattened spheres and dumbells with pits. Gravity then pulls them back to earth.

 The Tektite is given various other names in different translations of the games. These names seem to emphasize the Tektite's archnoid (spider-like) nature. Note how the LoZ manual calls Tektites "spidery things."
