ChuChu are small living jellies that have made appearances in Majora's Mask, The Wind Waker, The Minish Cap, Phantom Hourglass, Spirit Tracks, Skyward Sword. Similar enemies, Chu, appeared in Twilight Princess. They come in many different colors and each color has it's own special features and characteristics.

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.


The Wind Waker

Blue ChuChu

Blue ChuChus are an extremely rare form of ChuChu, there being only 23 found over the entire Great Sea. They have electricity running around the outside of their entire body, so hitting them directly is not a good idea. The best way to defeat them is to either use the boomerang to stun it, and then go in for the kill with your sword, or just shoot an arrow, which kills them instantly.
Alternatively, you could swipe with your sword right after they pop out of the ground, before their electricity powers up. Although this method is a little risky if your a new player, but it's a useful speed running tactic.
They give out [Blue Chu Jelly]] when defeated, but only the first time you kill them.

Green ChuChu

Green ChuChus are the second form you encounter in the game, and probably the most common variant of them all. They mostly inhabit forested areas such as the Forest Haven or Forbidden Woods. These guys can be pretty annoying before you get the boomerang, because they have the ability to turn into blobs, which makes them unable to be affected by your sword. But once you get the boomerang, you can use it to stun them, which makes them a piece of cake. They take 2 hits to kill with the Hero's Sword and 1 hit with the Master Sword.
They usually drop Green Chu Jelly when defeated.

Purple ChuChu

Purple ChuChu's are the last variant you find (Assuming, of course, that you've found at least one Blue ChuChu). And they are also probably the hardest. They are invulnerable to all your weapons, except the Mirror Shield. The only way to kill them is to shine light on them, turning them into stone. Then, you can either throw them, which destroys them, or just simply smash them with the Skull Hammer. They are mostly found in the Earth Temple, but are also in the Savage Labrynth.

Red ChuChu

Red ChuChus are the first ChuChus you find, and are also the easiest to kill. One simple sword slash will do these guys in. They can't burrow in the ground, all they can do is waddle around, and jump on you. They mostly inhabit fire type areas, such as the Dragon Roost Cavern, but have been seen other places as well.
They usually drop Red Chu Jelly when defeated.

Yellow ChuChu

Yellow ChuChu They can drop either Green or Red Chu Jelly, but also drop Rupees, bombs and arrows etc.

Blue ChuChu

Green ChuChu

Red ChuChu

Rock ChuChu

Spiny ChuChu

Phantom Hourglass

Blue ChuChu

Blu ChuChus are the most annoying type of ChuChus. They are covered with electricity, but unlike yellow ChuChus, they never stop sparking. There's no way to damage them with your sword, you'll have to use other weapons to defeat them. The Bow, the Boomerang, and the Hammer are all good options.

Green ChuChu

Green ChuChus are very rare. They are only encountered in the Temple of Courage. They have the ability to dodge attacks, so stun them with the boomerang before attacking.

Red ChuChu

Red ChuChus are the easiest form of ChuChus to defeat. They are also the first enemies you encounter. One simple sword slash will finish them off, as well as a hit from almost any other weapon.

Rock ChuChu

Rock ChuChus are Red ChuChus concealed within boulders. They can be defeated after you remove their rocky shell with Bombs, Bomchus, the Grappling Hook, or the Hammer.

Yellow ChuChu

Yellow ChuChus are very annoying to deal with. You can't attack them while they are electrified, you'll have to wait until they stop sparking. If you do run into them, or try to attack with your sword, you'll lose some health and your map will become pixelated for a few seconds. A good way to defeat them is to use your boomerang to stun them, and then go in for the kill.
