By tapping the Wolf Link Amiibo during play, you will be able to summon a Wolf Link partner character from Twilight Princess to assist you. Wolf Link will help out both in combat and in scavenging, and will even hunt and track down other wildlife to provide you with food.
The Wolf Link and Epona amiibo both have helpful and interesting functionalities that'll greatly enhance your Breath of the Wild experience, on Switch 2 or otherwise. They're also compatible with the original Switch version, and can be purchased relatively cheaply from various sources online.
The best amiibo in Ultimate kind of depends on what you want to use it for! If you're looking to train an amiibo that is best against other amiibo, the answer is pretty much unanimously Incineroar.
Amiibo toys were first released in North America on November 21, 2014, in Europe on November 28, 2014, and in Japan on December 6, 2014, along with the release of Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. The Super Mario series, featuring Mario, Luigi, Peach, Yoshi, Bowser, and Toad, arrived on March 20, 2015, for both regions.
Epona can be summoned using either of two different amiibo, the Super Smash Bros. Link amiibo or the Twilight Princess Link amiibo. These two amiibo generate a specific pool of rewards given out at random when scanned, one of which can be Epona. (Other amiibo versions of Link cannot summon Epona.)
Just tap an amiibo accessory to the NFC touchpoint on a compatible system to enjoy fun in-game extra features in compatible games on the Nintendo Switch™ system, New Nintendo 2DS™ XL system, New Nintendo 3DS™ XL system and Wii U™ console. Wolf Link is the legendary twilit beast form of the hero Link™.
If Link travels too far out of Wolf Link's reach, he will automatically warp to Link's side. When Link stands beside Wolf Link, he can command his counterpart to "Stay" by pressing the A Button.
It depends on what you mean by "best." There are a few special horses that are guaranteed to be good. First, there's the royal white horse , found near Safula Hill. Then there's the giant horse , which can't gallop but has a higher base speed than any other horse, found in the Taobab Grassland.
Link cannot ride on Epona as a child, as she is too young to carry anyone. When Link becomes the Hero of Time seven years later, he finds that Epona has become a fully grown mare.
If he dies you can load an earlier save file (from when he was still alive) and just summon him again immediatly. If he dies and you chose to continue playing, you won't be able to summon him for the remainder of the day - real days, not in-game days. You can summon him again tomorrow.
The Ordon Sword is given to Link shortly after he becomes a wolf for the first time. In the Ordon Village, Rusl and Uli will be outside talking. During their conversation they will mention the sword being in the house. Head to the east side of the house, look for the pumpkins using Link's wolf senses, and dig.
If you fast travel, enter & leave a shrine or Divine Beast, save & reload, enter a village, paraglide for too long, swim for too long, start a challenge/trial in which he can't follow you (like the Test of Wood, for example) then he will despawn and the only way to summon him back is by scanning the amiibo.
The Shy Guy amiibo, like all other amiibo, is compatible with Hyrule Warriors II. Like most other amiibo, the Shy Guy amiibo does not have unique content attached to it, instead just granting a random award when used.
