Bubble
Template:Enemy Bubbles are recurring enemies that typically consist of a floating head with flames around it. In some games, bubbles have wings, too. There are many different varieties, each with their own distinct color. They attack by ramming into you, which causes an effect that varies between games. Sometimes, Bubbles are invincible.
The Legend of Zelda
Bubbles appear within the many dungeons of the Legend of Zelda. When Link touches one of these enemies, he will not be able to swing his sword for several seconds. In the Second Quest of the original Legend of Zelda, there are Red and Blue bubbles. If Link ever touches a Red Bubble he won't be able to his sword at all. He must touch a Blue Bubble in order to regain control over his sword.
Ocarnia of Time
Bubbles in Ocarnia of Time come in four colors, and are defeated according to it.
Blue Bubble
- Main article: Blue Bubble
Blue Bubbles in Ocarina of Time are commonly found within the Forest Temple. They float around randomly and only persue Link upon close proximity. A simple arrow to the skull is enough to knock them to the ground. A follow up with the sword is enough to defeat them.
Red Bubble
Red Bubbles,commonly refereed to as fire bubbles, only appear in lava fields and shoot up and out while bouncing around before entering the lava pool again. The only effective way in combating this form of Bubble is a defection from a shield followed by an arrow or sword strike.
Green Bubble
Green Bubbles are the more tame form of the Bubble. They have fixed motion paths and do not pursue link or move fast. The Green Bubble can only be attacked while the Green flame is missing, which occurs every few seconds.
White Bubble
Only found within the Spirit Temple, this Bubble species flies at a fast rate of speed in the air before stopping and extinguishes its flame before redirecting itself. Just like the Green Bubble this bubble is only vulnerable when its flame disappears.
Majora's Mask
In Majora's Mask Only Blue and Red bubbles appear with only one difference. Blue bubbles can now jinx you, causing the sword icon to not work, an alternative in this case would be to equip the Great Faries Sword to a C button.
Twilight Princess
Enemy: Bubble
Attacks: Contact (quarter-heart)
Found: Arbiter’s Grounds; Hyrule Castle
Description: Bubbles appear as an odd mix of a keese and a skull. Despite their creepy looks, Bubbles are some of the easier enemies in the game. Link can shoot them down from afar with arrows, or simply strike them once with his sword, causing them to retract their wings and fall helplessly to the ground. Do NOT perform the Ending Blow when a Bubble is in this state. It is pretty hard to hit, and will leave Link with his sword planted in the ground, rather it is easier to just strike it with your sword normally while it is in this helpless state. After a few moments, the wingless bubble will grow wings again and resume flying. Twilight Princess also contains Fire Bubbles.
Phantom Hourglass
Fire and Ice Bubbles make an appearance. They first appear in the Temple of Fire, and reappear in many of the later temples. To defeat one, first whack it with the Boomerang. The Bubble will bound around helplessly. Then, use your sword to finish it off. If you try to attack before you dispel the flames, you will be burned or frozen.
