A Pyrup is an enemy featured in Skyward Sword. They are seal-like enemies that reside in fiery areas.

They hide in holes in walls and breath fire at Link. To defeat them, the young hero must roll a bomb close enough to their hole, causing the resulting explosion to kill them. A mobile, shelled variant also appears, allowing them to simultaneously spin and breath fire at Link. The young hero must throw a bomb at their shells to destroy them.
