Genie is the Nightmare of Bottle Grotto, the second dungeon in The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening. He has a clown-like appearance, and uses a bottle to protect itself from Link's attacks.

[edit] Strategy

After he pops out of his bottle and throws a series of fireballs at Link, he goes back into the bottle. When it starts chasing Link, Link must strike the bottle to stun it, then he use the Power Bracelet to lift it and throw it into a wall. After this is done three times, the bottle is broken, and Genie goes into a frenzy.

Now Link can damage him with the sword. After each hit, Genie will split into two and reform. While he is split into two, he cannot be damaged. The second he reforms, Link must strike him again. After repeating this a number of times, Genie will be defeated, and Link can retrieve the Conch Horn.
