The boss of the Shadow Temple found late in the game, Bongo Bongo can only be reached and beaten if you use the Lens of Truth to its fullest potential since he does not appear in full on the material plane. Battling Link atop a large Bongo drum, Bongo Bongo's weak point is his eye which needs to be shot with the Fairy Bow.
His hands-- his most dangerous feature-- can be seen without the Lens of Truth. You can only fight this Phantom Shadow Beast as an adult.
2. Facade
Answer: Link's Awakening (DX)
Located in the game's sixth dungeon, Facade is the final boss of the Face Shrine, a location whose layout is also shaped like a face. Using bombs, Link can kill this foe by properly placing explosives on the floor-- the only location where Facade can live.
In the meantime he'll also need to dodge flying objects and opening floor tiles. Facade also appears in "Oracle of Seasons" (twice), but never as a dungeon boss; he was always a mini-boss in said game.
3. Odolwa
Answer: Majora's Mask
A game with very few dungeons, Odolwa is one of only a handful of major bosses though he's unique in his own right. Found in the dungeon in the Southern Swamp, Odolwa is fought using the Deku Mask form and the Fairy Bow, found in the Woodfall Temple dungeon proper. Bombs placed throughout the edges of the boss chamber may also be a big help in subduing this Masked Jungle Warrior who, in addition to attacking with his sword, will also send off swarms of insects.
He's typically the first major boss fought in "Majora's Mask".
4. Shadow Hag
Answer: Oracle of Ages
The Shadow Hag is the third boss of the game, found in the Moonlit Grotto, a dungeon found on the Tokay-inhabited Crescent Island in the southeast corner of the Labrynna map. Since Link locates the Seed Shooter in this dungeon, it only makes sense that the weapon would come in handy for such a fight; Link can use it to harm the foe. During this battle, the Shadow Hag has the ability to morph into darkness and split into different fragments of herself before rejoining and attacking.
5. Agahnim
Answer: A Link to the Past
An evil sorcerer, Agahnim is seen twice in "A Link to the Past", once when he lures Link to Hyrule Castle during a ritual, forcing Link to head into the Dark World to save Princess Zelda, and once more in the Dark World when ascending Ganon's Tower. In addition to using powerful magicks against Link in battle, the second encounter also sees Agahnim splitting into two images of himself.
It turns out that Agahnim was possessed by Ganon the whole time.
6. Vaati
Answer: The Minish Cap
While Vaati later appears in the "Four Swords" series of "Legend of Zelda" games, canonically he makes his earliest appearance in "The Minish Cap" as the game's final boss. Vaati, seeking out a magical power known as the Light Force, is responsible for setting Link on a quest to stop the evils unleashed on the world and transform Princess Zelda back into flesh and blood (she's transformed into a statue).
As it turns out, Vaati-- one of the Minish race-- is also a powerful wind mage.
7. Blizzeta
Answer: Twilight Princess
This Twilit Ice Mass is the fifth boss of "Twilight Princess", found in the Snowpeak Ruins inhabiting the body of the possessed Yeta. To fight this boss, you need to head into the ruins' bedroom and use the unique Ball and Chain weapon to smash through its icy exterior. During this battle, Link needs to watch for slippery conditions, especially when dodging ice attacks and falling icicles from the ceiling. Following the battle, Yeta will reunite with her husband, Yeto.
8. The Imprisoned
Answer: Skyward Sword
Found in the Sealed Grounds of Faron Woods, The Imprisoned is one of the more daunting bosses of "Skyward Sword" because of its prevalence in Link's nightmares. The Imprisoned, another form of the game's final boss, Demise, seeks to reach the sealing stone at the bottom of the Sealed Grounds in order to free itself and rise to power. Because of this, the Sealing Grounds make for a final battleground at the end of the game where you go head to head against The Imprisoned in both forms one final time.
9. Gohdan
Answer: The Wind Waker
The boss of the Tower of the Gods, Gohdan is unlike many of the other bosses in "Wind Waker" because of his nature as a mechanical construct. Considered The Great Arbiter, he's very similar to Bongo Bongo (from "Ocarina of Time") in that he has a head and two hands, but his powers are enervated with magical energy.
In addition to using his hands to swat Link around, he can also shoot fire. Evidently, he was only made as a way to prove the Hero of Time to the Gods. No one said it would be fair or easy.
10. Molduga
Answer: Breath of the Wild
Fought in the Gerudo Desert, Molduga is similar to most bosses fought in sandy areas in that it takes to its terrain and burrows under the dunes waiting to strike. Link can take on this foe with explosives and, in order to get around the boss on the battlefield, he'll need to use his shield surfing technique.
There are four Moldugas found in the desert, all in different locations, and it's said that their body parts have medicinal properties.
