[[Image:Polsvoice_LA.gif|left|frame|Pols Voice in ''[[LA]]'']][[Image:Polsvoice1.gif|left]][[Pols Voice]] is the name given to a species of rabbit-like monsters that hop along the ground, seeking out intruders within their habitat, which is usually some sort of cave or dungeon. They made their debut in ''[[The Legend of Zelda (Game)|The Legend of Zelda]]'' for the [[NES]] and are found in most handheld Zelda games thereafter. Their head boasts two floppy ears and whiskers like that of a rabbit or hare, but the similarities end there. They have evil, black beady eyes and a lower torso that degenerates to a slime-like mass. For unknown reasons, the ears of a Pols Voice are hyper-sensitive to loud sound, and playing a melody from an instrument such as an [[Ocarina]] or [[Recorder]] will cause them to spontaneously explode. Originally, they were meant to be sensitive to input into a microphone peripheral for the NES, however that weakness was lost in translation. They are also quite vulnerable to [[arrow]]s, as [[Link]] can easily eradicate several at once with one arrow if they are aligned in the arrow's path. Their only other other glaring weakness is their weakness to explosives, such as [[bomb]]s. They are immune to piercing weapons, including any type of [[sword]]. | [[Image:Polsvoice_LA.gif|left|frame|Pols Voice in ''[[LA]]'']][[Image:Polsvoice1.gif|left]][[Pols Voice]] is the name given to a species of rabbit-like monsters that hop along the ground, seeking out intruders within their habitat, which is usually some sort of cave or dungeon.

[[Image:PolsVoicephantom.gif|left]]Pols Voices also appear in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass]]'', where they first appear in the [[Temple of Courage]]. They appear very large, and similar to previous concept art. As a nod to the microphone peripheral that was only released in Japan, (as stated above, their classic weakness) the only way to expose their weakness is to scream into the [[Nintendo DS]] Mic, which stuns them and makes them vulnerable to attack. That being the case, a player who doesn't know this secret will have a difficult time with them. | [[Image:PolsVoicephantom.gif|left]]Pols Voices also appear in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass|Phantom Hourglass]]'', where they first appear in the [[Temple of Courage]].
