Where are the female Gorons?

[Hi no Seijin]

Davros is on.

Shock aside, I still like the two ideas put forth by me and Whocare's idea about the special rock.

Very interesting, but you seem to be discussing view on how the Gorons interbreed (Or don't as it seems), any ideas on how they reproduce, within their own species? (Unless you say they can't, but these would surely mean that they would simply die out, an idea disproved by the Goron's in WW.

Well, that's true, but I used it to question the Goron-rock theory. Don't get me wrong, I love the idea, and after having seen what Biggoron did to my shield in TMC, I'm prepared to believe anything involving their spit and stomach acid. But, if they are apparently capable of getting children with other races, why would they have two methods of reproducing (one for their own kind, one for the other races)? And just how, if that's the case, would that work? I never said or would even consider thinking they can't reproduce within their own species, I just wonder how they reproduce. I'm just looking at all the evidence, the two big ones being: Gorons are capable of getting children with not-gorons & there are no "female" gorons and there's no reason to assume they exist.

[Davros]

True, "female" goron's do not seem to exist, but if the females themselves don't exist, it is possible that gorons simply reproduce a-sexually (Hence the Goron's in WW not being to worried about wondering around with whole seas seperating them from other Gorons). Oh and Hi no Seijin, I've been revoering from an accident, so I couldn't come on to the net. But I'm back now!

[LadyNintendo]

Look, I think that's very well possible. I mean, there's no reason why they wouldn't reproduce a-sexually, since there are clearly no signs of different genders in the games. But in that case, how can some of them have Hylian descendants? I said I believe a lot, but it somehow doesn't seem they could've gotten them asexually or by chewing on a rock. So, why would or do they have two reproduction systems? And in particular, what is the use of the reproduction system they in general can't or don't use?

* I'm pretty sure someone's gonna mention the Gerudo. First of all, they do get a male of their race once in a very long time period (I assume per tribe, but just how does that work?). Well, if they really can get 400 years old, that would be more than enough. Besides, it's a bit different for them, since they probably are very closely related to the other humanlikes. And if I'm correct, the quote was talking about a male Gerudo, not just males. At least two people in the game make references to possibly have a Gerudo as mother, one of them being a male.

The Gerudos mate with Hylians.

As for OoT being the Sealing War; if that's the case it's the war when Ganon ATTACKS Hyrule, not the small battle at the end. So, the Wise Men mentioned in ALttP are still not the same as the Sages in OoT.

[LadyNintendo]

I think it was the big battle Link missed. I just think that time brought the sages and knights together in one battle in the legends. A matter of ONE year possibly, so it's not that inaccurate. With Link helping the Sages, it's even more likely that it's just a minor mix up slipped in over time.

Oh, by the way, if a human eats the rock, bugs come out of it and use the person as a nest! That's how the original Aburame member was Aburamed! Anyways, the rock looks like filing cabinets.

[DW]

I believe that gorons are reproduced in the middle of the earth....say by Din. They probably grow like any rock, and when they are of age, Din awakens them, like the Ents were awoken by the elves in Lord of the Rings.

also, the thing about mating with another species.
1. we see no half and half creatures.
2.if all gorons are male, then it would kill whoever said male mated with...

[Mysterious F.]

Thank you for posting here! (Slips money into his pocket)

More, I've once seen an ant absorb some moisture on the rock, and it turned into a much taller version of Tom Cruise, and for what reason is a mystery.

Also, as for what happened to the affermentioned BBC documentary guy, his hair strangely formed the shape of a parachute and he floated down safely. He is believed to have landed in Pompeii and turn into a stone person becasue of the eruption. Also, I wanna mention that archiologists found a stone guy in Pompeii's ruins going to the bathroom when the Mount Vesuvias exdploded.

This just in, Kabuto appears to have gone off the deep end. thanks for the cash though.

  (starts to do the crazy dance).

You haven't realized that by now?  (on the inside goes like this:   )

Still, the rock thing is funny.

[Gamefreak]

I don't know as much as I should about Hyrulian lore and races, but I would guess that Gorons reproduce as Gimli explained about dwarves in Lord of the Rings, that there are no women Goron, and that new ones just pop out of the ground.

[Mysterious F.]

But the rock thing is funny, right?

Also, the thing about the guy going to the bathroom when Pompeii was destroyed is true.  

[DW]

hmm...and in Eragon, dwarves are called knurlan in the ancient language, which means of stone...so I guess you could compare gorons to dwarves in a way.

[Harashi]

Well you see, gorons slowly gain mass as they eat more stones than are required to keep them alive, if they so choose they can produce an offspring by a natural spawning action that takes time to develop the offspring. Giant gorons eat a butt-load and never produce children, the elder goron may have only produced the one child or most of them, this shows that gorons retain their ability to spawn even when they become elderly.
