Quadro Babas are very similar to Deku Babas, with the key difference being that the Quadro Baba has a golden exterior and that it can change the direction in which it opens its mouth.

When it attacks, it opens its mouth fully, making it vulnerable to both horizontal and vertical sword attacks. To defeat this enemy, [[Link]] must slice alongside the opening of its mouth, using a vertical slice if its mouth is opened vertically or a horizontal slice if its mouth is opened horizontally. It can also be defeated by other alternate methods. Using a [[Bomb]] or the {{it|Beetle}} can defeat it, as well as the [[Bow]], but only if an [[Arrow]] is shot in the mouth or at the vine. A safer method is to use a [[Shield Bash]] to stun this enemy. When stunned, it can be chopped in one strike.

The Quadro Baba is slightly more durable than the Deku Baba. They are also more aggressive, and will also attempt to attack twice in one turn at rapid speed. They are also capable of dodging Link's sword attacks by swerving away, and unlike Deku Babas, they can also avoid stab attacks. They will then try to counterattack with a bite after dodging.

Quadro Baba are Enemies in Skyward Sword.[1]

Characteristics

Fi's Commenthide ▲
Fi says:

Target lock: Quadro Baba

This violent plant is widespread in wooded areas. It will attempt to bite anything that approaches it.

More rare than Deku Baba, Quadro Baba has greater stamina. A golden husk and dynamic mouth are this plant's distinguishing features.

Quadro Babas are unique, rare Deku Babas with gold-colored husks.[2] In addition to being more aggressive and having more health, they possess the ability to open their mouths either horizontally or vertically.[2] They can also dodge Link's attacks, including stabs with his Sword. After dodging, they will attack and change their mouth position.[3]

Much like the common Deku Baba, Quadro Babas are vulnerable only when their mouths are exposed when opened. Link must slice alongside the opening of its mouth, using a Vertical Slash if its mouth is open vertically, or a Side Slash if its mouth is open horizontally. Its mouth also briefly opens up fully when it attacks, making it vulnerable to both Side Slashes and Vertical Slashes. Quadro Babas can also be defeated through alternate methods: Dropping a Bomb with the Beetle will defeat it, as well as shooting an Arrow with the Bow at its mouth or vine. A Shield Bash can also be used to stun this Enemy, which can then be chopped in half.
