'''Pols Voice''' are rabbit-like enemies that appear frequently in [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' series]], namely in ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]'', ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|Link's Awakening]]'', ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages|Oracle of Ages]]'', ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons|Oracle of Seasons]]'', and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass|Phantom Hourglass]]''. Their recurring weakness is to sound, and thus in some games Pols Voices can be defeated by using loud sounds.

They hop around the screen trying to attack Link by bashing into him. Unlike most enemies, the Pols Voice is invulnerable to your sword. The easiest way to defeat a Pols Voice is to play your [[Ocarina]] near them. Playing [[Ballad of the Wind Fish]] with your ocarina will instantly kill any Pols Voice on the screen. If you don't have the ocarina yet, they can be killed by shooting an arrow or throw something at them, such as a nearby pot or rock. Though your sword does not harm it, it will push the Pols Voice back allowing you a bit of time to grab something to throw at it. [[Bomb]]s will also harm the Pols Voice, but it may be hard to time your hits using them.

Like the previous games, they hop around the room that they inhabit in an attempt to bump into Link. They are fairly fast whenever they jump, so it's sometimes best to keep moving around the room whenever there are Pols Voice present. These enemies cannot be defeated by normal means. But, with one play of the [[Harp of Ages]] or your animal friend's [[Flute]], you can defeat them easily. Alternatively, Bombs also work against a them.

 

Pols Voice are identical in appearance and behavior like their previous appearance in ''Oracle of Ages''. It can be defeated by the Flute that you obtain from either [[Moosh]], [[Ricky]], or [[Dimitri]].  

The latest appearance of Pols Voice in the [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''Zelda'' Series]] is in ''Phantom Hourglass''. They look very much like the original concept art for the Pols Voice. There are only a few Pols Voices in this game. They are all found in the [[Temple of Courage]], and must be defeated to progress through the temple. The trick to attacking it is first to blow into the mic. The Pols Voice will cover up it's large ears, allowing Link to whack it with his [[Sword]]. After defeated, it will drop a [[Small Key]], and Link will be able to continue.
