Net

The Bug Catching Net is an item featured in A Link to the Past.

Location and Uses
It is received early in the game from the Bug-Catching Kid in Kakariko Village, as long as Link has at least one bottle when he talks to him. The young hero can use the net to catch bees and fairies in empty bottles. Unlike other games in the series, in A Link to the Past, Link cannot swipe an empty bottle through the air to catch things, and as such, he must use the Bug Catching Net.

As a bizarre easter egg, the Bug Catching Net can also be used to reflect Agahnim's magic bolts back at him.

Soulcalibur II
The Bug-Catching Net is Link's "joke weapon" in Soulcalibur II. Paired off with the Hylian Shield, the net can be bought in the Alioth Shop for 12,500 Gold while playing the Weapon Master Mode. When Link equips the Bug-Catching Net, his offense as well as his defense decreases to 80%.
