Geldman

Where it is

From the official guides

It hides under the sand of the Desert of Mystery and shows itself when Link comes near. It always comes up in the same places, so learn them and it will not ram you.

ファミコン通信編集部責任編集 ゼルダの伝説 神々のトライフォースのすべてがわかる本 (アスキー, 1992), p. 101, translated by 101Leafy

It hides in the Desert of Mystery. It comes out of the sand and charges at Link. In the desert it may be a good idea to walk with a Spin Attack charged.
