Deku Nuts are items from Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask and Twilight Princess.
Location
Deku Nuts are the dried buds of Deku Babas as opposed to Deku Sticks 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 jars; they're usually for sale at low prices in shops as well.
Uses
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.
Deku Nuts are the weapon of choice of Deku Scrubs, 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 Deku Seeds inside which can be used in the Slingshot.
Non-canon Appearances
Super Smash Bros. Brawl
- See SmashWiki's article on Deku Nuts for more information.
Deku Nuts appear as items in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. When thrown, the Deku Nut explodes when it hits the ground and stuns any nearby opponents, causing approximately 18% worth of damage. They also appear as a trophy and as a sticker.

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. | Random |

Trivia
- The Great Deku Tree's seeds in The Wind Waker look like giant Deku Nuts.
- The way the Sheikahs use the Deku Nuts is an adaption of the metsubushi techniques used by real-life ninjas.
- 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.
