'''Bubbles''' are recurring enemies in [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' series]]. They 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 [[Link]], which causes an effect that varies between games. In some games, Bubbles are invincible.  

Bubbles appear within many dungeons of ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]''. When [[Link (The Legend of Zelda)|Link]] touches one of these enemies, he will not be able to swing his sword for several seconds. In the [[Second Quest]], there are Red and Blue Bubbles. If Link ever touches a Red Bubble, he won't be able to use his [[Sword (The Legend of Zelda)|sword]] at all. In order to regain control over his sword, he must touch a Blue Bubble, visit a [[Fairy Fountain]], drink a [[Life Potion|potion]], or pick up a [[Triforce Shard]].

Bubbles are floating skulls with red "bubbles" floating around the outside of it. They bounce on walls and try to bump into [[Link (Oracle Series)|Link]], which causes him damage and disable the use of his weapons for a limited amount of time. There is no way to defeat this enemy and it can be very annoying when there are several enemies to battle at once. Simply try to avoid this enemy whenever it appears.

Bubbles are seen periodically throughout the game. Unlike most enemies, they can exist in the [[Dark World]]. If they touch Link, they will deal a small amount of damage. They cannot be destroyed by Link's sword. Jumping over them with the [[Roc's Feather]] is efficient in avoiding them.

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 [[Hidden Skills#Ending Blow|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. ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'' also contains Fire and Ice Bubbles.

Fire and Ice Bubbles make an appearance in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass|Phantom Hourglass]]''. 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]], it will cause it to jump 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.  

A Bubble appears for a short period of time when Link is battling with a [[Mothula]]. The mothula releases the Bubble and it flies towards Link. Link then uses the whirlwind to launch the Bubble back at mothula.
