==''Breath of the Wild''==
Silver Lynels are the most lethal of all [[Lynel]]s found in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]'s'' standard mode. They are bolstered by [[Ganon]]'s evil magic like the other silver variations of enemies, such as the [[Silver Moblin]]. Usually mistaken as a [[White-Maned Lynel]], despite the color pattern on the silver one being inverted from the White-Maned Lynel. As Link progresses through the game, many of the Lynels across Hyrule will be upgraded to the Silver kind. They have a chance to drop rare materials, including [[Star Fragment (Breath of the Wild)|Star Fragments]].

Silver Lynels reappear from ''Breath of the Wild'' albeit in much lesser quantities, with adjusted enemy balancing allowing for each of every type of Lynel to share overworld space with each other at the same time. At a certain point, A Silver Lynel will always be found in Nautelle Wetlands, and gloom-covered Silver Lynels found in the depths below Muihcoro Lightroot and in the gloom covered passage leading to the final encounter with Ganondorf. Two Silver Lynels are also the two final opponants fought in the Floating Coliseum, after one of every previous iteration of Lynel is fought before it. They carry over many of their characteristics from ''Breath of the Wild'' with the most notable differences being that they now drop [[Silver Lynel Saber Horn]]s and [[Silver Lynel Mace Horn]]s upon defeat in place of [[Gem]]s and [[Star Fragment]]s, and that on occasion they will be encountered clad in rock armor, becoming stunned for a moment once it's broken apart. [[Silver Lynel Saber Horn]]s and [[Silver Lynel Mace Horn]]s have a fuse power of 55 and 51 respectively, making them approximately the two strongest fuse materials in the game, and is effective respectively for slash and hammer-type attacks. [[Lynel Hoof]]s and [[Lynel Gut]]s will also be dropped, along with a variety of higher level fused/unfused basic weapons, plus [[Savage Lynel Bow]]s and [[Savage Lynel Shield]]s.

Silver-Maned Lynels have 5000 HP, making them even more tough than [[White-Maned Lynel]]s. 18 of the 22 Lynels in the game will eventually evolve into Silver Lynels.

They have the same move set as other Lynels, although its attacks do considerably more damage. Watch out if it roars; it will charge up and do an explosive attack in a very wide area around it. Here, you can either run as fast as you can away, get a quick head-shot to stun the Lynel, or parry its attack. If this attack lands, it will be devastating, even with most good armour. A good tactic to take one down is to use a powerful bow and a lot of arrows, and to just keep shooting it in the head until it dies, since most of its attacks are charge attacks that can be canceled if you hit him in the head. Attempting to shoot a Lynel from a distance is usually a very poor idea, as it will shoot elemental arrows at you, including [[Shock Arrow]]s, which afflict critical damage, and if more than one projectile hits at once, [[Link (Breath of the Wild)|Link]] may just die outright on the spot.
