Appearances

Majora's Mask

Majora's Mask is the first game to feature ChuChu, they first make their appearance relatively near the start of the game. They are first encountered in Termina Field. There is a total of four different coloured ChuChu in Majora's Mask. All four types of ChuChu have the same general design and each contains an item which is released when the ChuChu is defeated (except blue).

ChuChu are blob-shaped in Majora's Mask and they have large bottoms but begin to narrow towards their eyes. They have a large mouth with pale lips and teeth that have gaps in between them. They also have two large, yellow eyes. They all have droopy eyelids with a number of wrinkles and lines on them. They are translucent monsters and when looking through them you can see the item which their body contains, except Blue ChuChu that do not contain an item.

ChuChu attack by hopping around and jumping into you. However, they are easily defeated with one or two hits with your sword. The four colours of ChuChu in Majora's Mask are as follows: Blue, Green, Red and Yellow.

Blue ChuChu

This is a blue variation of the ChuChu found in Majora's Mask. They do not contain items and can be found in the Great Bay Temple. They are used during the temple by shooting them with Ice Arrows and then using as blocks to move around and use to climb up to higher places. Other than this they are useless. Once defeated they will respawn after a small amount of time.

Green ChuChu

The green variation of ChuChu is one of the first you encounter. They contain Magic Jars if you manage to defeat them. They are found in Termina Field, the Great Bay Temple and the Stone Tower Temple. These are particularly useful if you are running low on magic, can be defeated with almost all of your weapons and respawn after a certain amount of time.

Red ChuChu

The Red ChuChu is the other variation you meet very early on in the game. They contain Recovery Hearts which they will drop when you defeat them. They are found in Termina Field. These are particularly useful if you are running low on health, can be defeated with almost all of your weapons. They also respawn after a certain amount of time.

Yellow ChuChu

This yellow variation of ChuChu are particularly useful in dungeons where you use your bow a lot as they contain 10 Arrows. They appear in the Great Bay Temple and the Stone Tower Temple. They can be defeated in the same way as the other ChuChu; with your sword or virtually any other weapon in the game and will respawn after a certain amount of time.

Trivia

The ChuChu design from The Wind Waker onwards is thought to be derived from the design of Buzz Blob from Link's Awakening, Oracle of Ages'Oracle of Seasons.
