Pea Hat



The Pea Hat has been in many different Zelda games, and has changed drastically over time.

In the original Legend of Zelda, they were the spirits of dead flowers, fluttering around the screen, and only being vulnerable when they stopped moving.

In the N64 Zelda's, it's an annoying creature that sleeps in the ground. When you get too close to it, it will shoot up into the air and use its blades like helicopter blades to keep itself in the air. It flies after Link and attempts to chop him down with these very blades. They even send out little baby Pea Hats which are just as annoying. This thing is rather hard to kill, so prepare to run as it is much easier.

Another version of the Peahat is found all around the islands of tWW. To defeat it, you can use your bow and arrows so it's defeated in one hit. However, if you don't feel like spending arrows, blow them away with the Deku Leaf and finish them off with your sword--if you don't, they'll grow new "wings". Another method is to hit them with the boomerang twice, very quickly. After they die and turn into smoke, Pea hats usually drop a golden feather, which is a valuable collectible for a particular side quest, involving a Rito sentry.
