Appearances

A Link to the Past

Main article: Flute § A Link to the Past

An Ocarina appears in A Link to the Past; however, it is called the Flute in English versions due to a mistranslation (although it was originally "Ocarina" in Japanese versions). It once belonged to a young boy who set out in search of the Golden Power and never returned. Link finds this instrument buried in the Haunted Grove, and uses it to call the boy's duck which can take him to different parts of the Light World.

Link's Awakening

File:Ocarina(LA).gif

In Link's Awakening, the Ocarina can be found in the Dream Shrine, which can only be completed if Link has the Power Bracelet and the Pegasus Boots. The Ocarina can be played before learning any songs, but all that comes out are random notes which have no effect.

The Ocarina is used to play the following three songs once learned:

• Manbo's Mambo, taught by Manbo
• Frog's Song of Soul, taught by Mamu
• Ballad of the Wind Fish, taught by Marin

Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask

The Fairy Ocarina from Ocarina of Time

Template:Main list

The Template:It plays an important role in both Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask. In Ocarina of Time, Link uses it to solve various puzzles, travel to the entrance of temples, open the way to the Door of Time, and even change from day to night in an instant. The Ocarina of Time in Majora's Mask is also used for a wide variety of purposes, with its most prominent being traveling back in time to the Dawn of the First Day by playing the "Song of Time."

The Minish Cap

Main article: Ocarina of Wind

In The Minish Cap, Link has a blue ocarina called the Ocarina of Wind. It functions like the flute from A Link to the Past, in which the young hero uses it to call a bird known as Zeffa, which can take him to parts of Hyrule where Link has uncovered a Wind Crest.

Other Appearances

BS The Legend of Zelda

In BS The Legend of Zelda, the graphic for the Recorder has been changed to resemble the Ocarina from A Link to the Past. The Ocarina is found in the third Dungeon, which can be used to warp to other dungeons. When the Ocarina is played on a pad near the eastern shore, the sixth dungeon will appear.

Ripened Tingle's Balloon Trip of Love

In Ripened Tingle's Balloon Trip of Love, a mysterious, hooded character known as Segāre plays an ocarina to call his horse. The Ocarina is similar in design to the Ocarina of Time.

Skull Kid wielding the Ocarina

In Hyrule Warriors, Link can be seen playing the Template:It in his victory animation for the Template:It Weapon, and Young Link uses it as his Strong Attack to exchange his Special Bar for his Magic Meter.

The Focus Spirit Attack has Skull Kid kick a miniature Moon into the air before twirl kicking it at the enemies in front of him. Afterwards Skull Kids mockingly spanks his behind at them.
