The '''Kikwi''' are a shy, herbivorous race found in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]]'' that live in [[Faron Woods]]. They are easily intimidated by [[Link]] and [[Fi]], but they prove helpful in getting to [[Skyview Temple]] and [[Lake Floria]]. Their round tails open to reveal a bush, which the Kikwi use for camouflage. Each Kikwi sports a unique face, similar to the [[Korok]]s in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]''. While many of the Kikwi are smaller than Link, they seem to grow to much larger sizes as they age. [[Bucha]], who the Kikwi refer to as their elder, is twice Link's size. However, the Kikwi hermit Yerbal is also old, so it may just be that the leader of the tribe is the only giant one. Kikwi vaguely resemble [[Wikipedia:Tanuki|Tanuki]] from Japanese culture, or even penguins or squirrels.
The first Kikwi Link meets is named [[Machi]]. He is found being attacked by two [[Bokoblin]]s. He then escapes thinking Link wants to attack him as well. After finding him three times, he realizes that Link means no harm and introduces himself. He recalls that a girl (heavily implied to be [[Zelda]]) passed by and was in the area. Then, Machi directs Link toward the Kikwi elder, Bucha.


{{Race
Once Link finds Bucha, he asks Link to rescue three lost Kikwi—[[Oolo]], [[Erla]], and [[Lopsa]]. When Link returns, Bucha rewards him with the [[Slingshot]].

Much later on Link's quest, when revisiting Faron Woods, Link meets a Kikwi sleeping on a branch on the top of the [[Great Tree]]. Hit him with the [[Beetle (Item)|Beetle]] or [[Slingshot]] to wake him up. The Kikwi, named [[Yerbal]], will then direct Link towards Lake Floria, and show him how to open the door blocking it. Later, when Link meets [[Faron (Dragon)|Faron]] the Water Dragon, she tells Link that she will eat Yerbal for revealing her location.

These are very diverse creatures new to Skyward Sword that live in the forest region. They appear to be friendly toward Link, but what purpose they serve is unknown. One disguises itself as a bush until Link approaches, and then it retracts the leaves into its tail and faces him much like a Business Scrub from Ocarina of Time. Another lacks this tail, but still lies face-down on the ground when it isn't talking to Link. An older-looking one also appears, who seems to be more active. The actual name of these creatures is unknown, but they vaguely resemble [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tanooki Tanooki] from Japanese culture, or even penguins or squirrels.
