The Magic Powder is an item in A Link to the Past and Link's Awakening.

Location and Uses

A Link to the Past

In A Link to the Past, Magic Powder can be obtained from Syrup after giving her the Magic Mushroom, which can be found in the Lost Woods. Once Link gives her the mushroom, he must leave the area and return. Then, Maple will give him the Magic Powder inside the Magic Shop.

Magic Powder can dissolve bushes, turn Buzz Blobs into Cukemen, and turn Bubbles and Rabbit Beams into Fairies. It can also be used on various enemies, turning them into a Slime. Magic Powder can also be used to awaken the Mad Batter inside a well near the Dwarven Swordsmiths' shop. When sprinkled on the altar, it summons the Mad Batter, who rants at Link before doubling his Magic Meter.

Link's Awakening

In Link's Awakening, Magic Powder can be obtained by giving the Sleepy Toadstool to Syrup. It can also be won at the Trendy Game. It can be used to light torches, defeat enemies, and remove the spell put on Tarin after eating a toadstool.

Non-Canon Appearances
