Bombchu: Difference between revisions

After [[Link]] has obtained the [[Bomb Bag]] from [[Dodongo's Cavern]], he can get Bombchus in a number of places. They can be bought from the [[Bombchu Shop]] in the [[Back Alley]] of [[Castle Town|Hyrule Castle Town]] and the [[Carpet Merchant]] in the [[Haunted Wasteland]]. Link can also get them from [[Treasure Chest]]s in various parts of [[Hyrule]] or win them as prizes at the [[Bombchu Bowling Alley]]. Link can also get them from the [[House of Skulltula]] after he has gathered 40 [[Gold Skulltula Token]]s.

Link can only hold up to 50 at a time, and there are no upgrades for this limit. They are only required in [[Ganon's Castle]]. The [[Spirit Temple]] almost requires the use of a Bombchu, but a well timed Bomb throw can be used instead.

Bombchus in ''Majora's Mask'' are very similar to the ones in ''Ocarina of Time''. In this game, they are completely optional and not required at all. They can be purchased once Link has a Bomb Bag. They are necessary, however, to complete one of the four optional trials [[Inside the Moon]]. Bombchus are also required for one of the mini-games in [[Honey & Darling's Shop]]. This game also introduces the [[Real Bombchu]], an enemy that appears in [[Termina]] and returns in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]''.

In both ''Oracle of Seasons'' and ''Oracle of Ages'', Bombchus can only be obtained in a [[Linked Game]]. They are very similar to the previous games, but they also home in on enemies and explode. After Link has obtained them, he can purchase them from [[Syrup]].

In ''Phantom Hourglass'', Bombchus are obtained in the [[Goron Temple]]. They are used very differently to in the previous ''Zelda'' titles, as in this game, Link can control them by drawing their path on the touch-screen. When Link uses them, the touch-screen changes to the map and zooms in on that area, so Link can draw their path. Link can move around while the Bombchu is moving, and some puzzles make this necessary. There are little holes in walls in many places, and Bombchus are the only things that can fit through these holes. The Bombchus in this game are not carried in the Bomb Bag, but in the [[Bombchu Bag]].

Bombchus appear in certain maps in ''[[Hyrule Warriors]]''. When they appear, the player must either escort them to a certain keep if they are friendly, or destroy them before they blow up within a friendly keep. If a Bombchu explodes in a friendly keep, the keep is instantly lost.
