Hopping Zoteling

"Figment of an obsessed mind. Jumps about in a nonthreatening manner. "That lowly map-maker's wife? Hah! My Queen, how could you compare yourself to her? In the face of your intoxicating beauty, all other females are merely dust!" The Grey Prince trembled with anger and indignation... and love."

- 'The Grey Prince' Chapter 178

Hopping Zotelings are enemies in Hollow Knight. They are the products of Bretta's imagination.

Behaviour and Tactics
Falls from above after being spawned by the Boss Grey Prince Zote. Hops towards the Knight in a very tall arc. It has very low health, but since multiple can quickly become a distraction it is recommended to kill it as fast as possible with a simple sword strike or by using a Spell such as Vengeful Spirit to strike both it and the boss simultaneously.

Location
This enemy is spawned by Grey Prince Zote after beating him at least once. The boss must be defeated to enter it in the Hunter's Journal.

This appears in Battle 2 and onwards.

To complete the entry for the Hunter's Journal, only Grey Prince Zote needs to be beaten in Battle 2 regardless of whether this enemy appears.

Hopping Zotelings are also present in the Eternal Ordeal.
