Bottles, commonly known as Empty Bottles, are recurring items in the Legend of Zelda series. They carry useful things such as fish, bugs, worms, water, potions, poes, Lon Lon Milk, Fairies, Bee Larva, Good Bees, and other things. In one odd occurrence, the Deku Princess is carried in a bottle for a short period of time in The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask. Bottles are obtained in most games in the series.

A maximum of four bottles can be found in most of the games with the exception of Majora's Mask, which has six bottles to obtain. Usually, the first bottle acquired is needed to progress further into the game. The remaining ones are typically optional, but make the game easier.

Artwork of a Bottle from A Link to the Past

There are four bottles in A Link to the Past. Two are found in Kakariko Village, one is purchased from a vendor, and the final one is found inside a Treasure Chest in the back of the tavern, which can be entered via the back door. Another is given by a camper beneath a bridge east of Hyrule Castle in the Light World.

The last bottle is stored inside a chest where the Dwarven Swordsmiths house would be in the Dark World. If Link brings the chest with him to the Desert of Mystery in the Light World, the silent Lockpicker will pick the lock on the chest in exchange for Link keeping quiet about him being a former thief.
