Gossip Stone: Should the Picori Appear in More Zelda Games?

I’ve talked about Zelda on numerous occasions, whether it’s just to my friends or right here on Zelda Dungeon. But for some reason, until now, one thing I always seem to overlook is The Minish Cap. So after thinking for a second, I thought “Why not talk about the Picori”? So, with that said, the Picori have made an appearance in only one game- The Minish Cap. And as well as I fully understand exactly why that’s the case, I know a few others that would love to see them in other Zelda games. So the questions is, what about you…? Would you like to see the Picori in more Zelda games, or do you think they should be in just Minish Cap? I’ll be explaining a little more on what they are beyond this point, so if you’d like to read into it, hit the jump to check it out!

Alright, so let’s just jump right into this. The Minish are a race of people known to be incredibly small. They’re referred to by Hyruleans as the Picori. More than a few types of Picori exist; including Forest Picori, Mountain Picori, and Town Picori. In the story, Link meets Ezlo- I have no other way to explain him other than, he’s a talking hat with a bird-like face. Simple as that. Anyways, when Link wears Ezlo, Ezlo gives him the ability to turn into a Minish, giving him a chance to see and interact with Picori- however, a Jabber Nut is required before he can speak the Picori tongue. But Link get’s that soon enough. Throughout the story, the Picori help Link in many ways, such as giving him information on where the next dungeon is, and even repairing the broken Picori Blade. There are a few rather important Picori to note, but I can only say so much without spoiling the story, so I’ll leave it at that.

So, what’s your verdict on it, then? For those who haven’t played Minish Cap before, after hearing this, would you like to see Picori in more Zelda games? And for those who have, the question is the same, just without learning about it now.

So, would you like to see more Picori in Zelda games? Or do you think they should remain in Minish Cap? Do you have another race you’d like to see in more Zelda installments? Grab the nearest Jabber Nut and sound off in the comments!
