==Location and Uses==
==={{OoT|-}}===
Deku Nuts are the dried buds of [[Deku Baba]]s. Although defeating Deku Babas is the most common source of these items, they can also be found on certain other enemies, in trees, and in [[jar]]s as well. In {{OoT}}, they are usually for sale in shops at 15 Rupees for five units.<ref>{{Cite Guide|quote= |game= OoT3D|publisher= Prima|page= 42}}</ref> [[Business Scrub]]s will offer to sell some at a higher price than shops, at five Deku Nuts for 20 [[Rupee]]s.<ref>{{Cite|I surrender! In return, I will sell you Deku Nuts! 5 pieces, 20 Rupees they are!|Business Scrub|OoT}}</ref>
Throughout {{OoT|-}}, [[Link]] can use Deku Nuts to temporarily stun enemies (which is indicated by a blue skin that filters over the enemy). When a Deku Nut collides with the ground, it lets off a large flash which freezes enemies caught in the flash.<ref>{{Cite|Set it to C and try throwing it! It will flash and stun the enemy!|N/A|OoT}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|Upon impact, it makes a blinding flash, freezing enemies in their tracks!|N/A|MM}}</ref> Oddly enough, even [[Ganon]] may be injured by Deku Nuts.
==={{MM|-}}===
Deku Nuts are the weapons of [[Deku Scrub]]s, which spit them from their snouts. However, the Deku Nuts utilized by Deku Scrubs do not explode on impact, and instead simply deal damage and crumble. That being said, [[Deku Link]] is able to drop Deku Nuts while flying using a [[Deku Flower]], which have the same effect as throwing them. Besides being used for battle, Deku Nuts also hold aesthetic value for the [[Deku Royal Family]] in particular, as the [[Deku King]]'s scepter is adorned with a large Deku Nut on top.


'''Deku Nuts''' are items from ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'', ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]'' and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]''.
==={{TMC|-}}===
{{Plural|TMC|Deku Nut}} appear in {{TMC}} as projectiles spit by {{Plural|TMC|Business Scrub|link}}. {{Term|TMC|Link|link}} can deflect them with his {{Term|TMC|Shield|link}}, and they will stun the {{Plural|TMC|Business Scrub}} who fired them.


==Location==
==={{TP|-}}===
[[File:DekuNut.png|right|70px|Deku Nuts in the Nintendo 64 Zelda games]]
In {{TP}}, Deku Nuts appear as objects and can be picked up from deceased Deku Babas and thrown like jars or rocks.<ref>{{Cite Guide|quote= |game= TP|publisher= Prima|page= 9}}</ref> They will not explode or produce a flash, but instead will yield [[Slingshot Pellets|Deku Seeds]], which can be used with the [[Slingshot]].
Deku Nuts are the dried buds of [[Deku Baba]]s, as opposed to [[Deku Stick]]s, which are the stalks. Deku Nuts are odd in that they erupt into a blinding flash on impact with a surface. Although defeating Deku Babas is the most common source of these items, they can be found as well in [[grass]] and [[jar]]s; they're usually for sale at low prices in shops as well.


==Uses==
==Upgrades==
Historically, the Deku Nuts were famously used by the [[Sheikah]] to quickly leave an area unseen--one would literally vanish after throwing one. However most of the time, the only effect of a thrown Deku Nut is that it stuns anything around the flash giving them a fading blue hue until the paralyzing effect wears off. Oddly enough, powerful figures such as [[Ganon]] may be injured by Deku Nuts along with very weak creatures such as [[Shabom]].
In {{OoT|-}}, it is possible to increase the maximum number of Deku Nuts Link can carry in his inventory. The first upgrade increases the amount from 20 to 30.<ref>{{Cite|Now you can carry many Deku Nuts! You can hold up to 30 nuts!|N/A|OoT}}</ref> The second raises it from 30 to 40.<ref>{{Cite|You can now carry even more Deku Nuts! You can carry up to 40 nuts!|N/A|OoT}}</ref> These upgrades can be obtained in any order.


[[File:Deku Nuts.png|left|70px]]
The first upgrade is obtained as a child by entering the [[Forest Stage]] while wearing the [[Mask of Truth]] (additionally, the Deku Scrubs will refill the supply of Deku Nuts).<ref>{{Cite|All my young Deku Scrub brothers say... You have a horrible face! But don't worry! We will reward you with many Deku Nuts. Of course, we will also enable you to carry more of them! Abracadabra… Alakazaaaam!!|Deku Scrub|OoT}}</ref> In the [[Nintendo 64]] version of {{OoT|-}}, due to a glitch, if the upgrade is not acquired before Link obtains the [[Poacher's Saw]] from the {{Term|OoT3D|Trading Quest|link}}, it becomes impossible to receive the upgrade. This was fixed in {{OoT3D}}.
Deku Nuts are the weapon of choice of [[Deku Scrub]]s, which spit them from their mouths. Surprisingly, the nuts utilized by Scrubs do not explode on impact, and instead simply deal damage and crumble; however, that being said, [[Deku Link]] is able to drop Deku Nuts while flying using a [[Deku Flower]] which have the same effect throwing nuts. Besides being used for battle, Deku Nuts also hold aesthetic value for the [[Deku Royalty]] in particular, as the Deku King's scepter is adorned with a large Deku Nut on top.


Deku Nuts in ''Twilight Princess'' cannot be used as items, but can be picked up from deceased Deku Babas and thrown like jars or rocks. They will not explode or produce a flash, but instead [[Slingshot Pellets|Deku Seeds]] inside which can be used in the [[Slingshot]].
The second upgrade can be purchased for 40 Rupees from a Business Scrub in the [[Lost Woods]], just outside the [[Sacred Forest Meadow]] entrance.<ref>{{Cite|I surrender! To make your quest easier, I can enable you to pick up more Deku Nuts! But, it'll cost you 40 Rupees!|Business Scrub|OoT}}</ref> The [[Bomb Bag]] is required.

| Items that explode in a flash of blinding light shortly after they appear or when they take damage. Those caught in a blast will be dazed and immobile for a few moments. If the item is thrown, it has the same effect on whomever it hits. In ''The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time'', Deku Nuts stunned enemies and were indispensable when Link was surrounded.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*The [[Great Deku Tree]]'s seeds in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'' look like giant Deku Nuts.
*The [[Great Deku Tree]]'s seeds in {{TWW}} resemble giant Deku Nuts.
*The way the Sheikahs use the Deku Nuts is an adaption of the [[Wikipedia:Metsubushi|metsubushi techniques]] used by real-life ninjas.
*The {{Term|TWWHD|Cafe Bar|link}} in {{TWW}} sells {{Term|TWWHD|Deku Nut Cake|link}} for 300 {{Plural|TWWHD|Rupee|link}}, according to chalboards written in {{Term|TWWHD|Hylian (Language)|link}}.<ref>{{Cite|{{H|TWW|デクノミケーキ}} {{Big|→}} {{H|TWW|300}}|translation= Deku Nut Cake → 300|romanization= Deku no Mi Kēki → 300|Cafe Bar|TWWHD}}</ref>
*When [[Impa]] and [[Sheik]] use a Deku Nut after talking to Link, a very small period of time passes before the impact's light vanishes and the Sheikah dissapear, apparently implying that they go away instantly. It's possible, however, that Link stays stunned for longer, and only recovers consciousness after the item's effect fades away.

*With the exception of the final blow with the [[Master Sword]], Ganon can be killed using only Deku Nuts on his tail. While more are required than Link can carry at once (even with upgrades) several of the pieces of rubble on the battlefield contain Deku Nuts once Ganon smashes them open.

*[[Deku Seeds]] in {{SS}} are incredibly similar to Deku Nuts in that they come from [[Deku Baba]]s and forest plants, produce a flash on impact and stun enemies that come close to the flash. In context, it is possible that without full maturity, the seed is a weaker version of the Nut.
*In the {{Term|OoT3D|Desert Colossus|link}} in {{OoT}} and the {{Term|MM3D|Great Bay Region|link}} in {{MM}}, {{Plural|Series|Deku Nut}} will occasionally drop from coconut {{Plural|Series|Tree|link}} if {{Term|Series|Link}} {{Term|Series|Rolling|link|display=Rolls}} into them.{{Verify}}
