Genie

The Genie (ツボ魔王, Tsubo Maō, lit. Pot Demon King) is a clown-like genie and the boss of Bottle Grotto, the second dungeon in Link's Awakening.

The battle against the Genie is relatively simple, but the Genie's fireballs can cause a problem if you don't pay attention. When the fight begins, wait for the Genie to enter his bottle and then quickly stun the bottle using your sword. You cannot hurt the Genie as long as he has his bottle to protect him, so you must first destroy the bottle. In order to do this, use the Power Bracelet to pick up the bottle and hurl it against the back wall. Then, quickly run to the bottom wall, ready to dodge. Three throws will destroy the bottle.

The rest of the fight is all dodging and swordplay. Pay attention and do your best to avoid the fireballs (You may find Roc's Feather helpful) while attacking the Genie with your sword.

Defeat the Genie to receive a Heart Container and the Conch Horn.
