In {{TLoZ}}, while not specifically referred to as a Great Fairy, and appearing as a normal [[Fairy]], there are a few ponds in the [[Hyrule]] overworld where they can be found. These pool-dwelling Fairies have the same role as Great Fairies in later games; they will only appear if Link approaches their pond with less than full health, and will instantly recover all of his [[Heart]]s.

The Fairy at the Waterfall of Wishing appears when Link throws various items into the [[Mysterious Pond]] and will ask him if he was the one who dropped them. She will return any item thrown by the hero, but if he drops certain items, she will instead give him better items or upgrades of the item if Link answers her questions honestly.<ref>{{Cite|Hello there. Did you drop this? I like an honest person. I will give you something better in return.|Waterfall of Wishing Fairy|ALttP}}</ref> These include the [[Boomerang]], which she upgrades to the [[Magical Boomerang]], the blue Level-1 [[Fighter's Shield]], which she upgrades to the [[Red Shield]], and an empty [[Bottle|Magic Bottle]], which she fills with [[Green Potion|Medicine of Magic]].

She will grant Link the [[Silver Arrow]]s required to defeat [[Ganon]], and will also power up the [[Tempered Sword]] into the [[Golden Sword]].

In {{OoT}}, Great Fairies are depicted as giant women who wear ivy vines and leather boots for clothing, and have red hair that is tied into three pigtails. This also marks the first time that Great Fairies are seen without wings. Their locations are scattered throughout Hyrule, where they live in certain Great Fairy Fountains that all have the [[Triforce]] symbol engraved on the floor in front of their pond. By playing "[[Zelda's Lullaby]]" on this symbol, the fountain's Great Fairy will be summoned. Great Fairies, when first called, will bless Link with either a new item or an upgrade. The color of their fountain's walls also vary from either blue or red to signify what kind of blessing they will give. Three of the Great Fairies give out [[Din's Fire]], [[Nayru's Love]] and [[Farore's Wind]]. Another three will upgrade Link's abilities, giving him the [[Spin Attack|Magic Spin Attack]] and the Magic Meter, a larger Magic Meter, and doubled defense in the form of an extended health bar.

In {{FSAE}}, completing the {{Term|FS|Hero's Key|link}} door in {{Term|FS|Vaati's Palace}} causes the {{Plural|FS|Great Fairy}}' appearance and personality to change and resemble the {{Plural|MM|Great Fairy}} from {{MM}}.<ref>{{Cite|Welcome!

As a special secret in ''Four Swords Anniversary Edition'', if all the Links have acquired the Hero's Keys and completed the game, the Great Fairies' appearances will change to that of those seen in {{OoT|-}} and {{MM|-}}, even including their trademark laughter. The Great Fairy of Forest will become pink, likened to the Great Fairies of {{OoT|-}} and to [[Woodfall]]'s Great Fairy of Power from {{MM|-}}. The Great Fairy of Ice will become green, akin to the Great Fairy of Wisdom from [[Snowhead]], while the Great Fairy of Flame will be an reddish orange hue, similar to the Great Fairy of Magic from {{MM|-}}. The smaller Fairies surrounding the fountain will also change color to match their Great Fairy's new appearance.

{{Main|Great Butterfly Fairy, Great Dragonfly Fairy, Great Mayfly Fairy}}
In {{TMC}}, there are three Great Fairies hidden through the land of Hyrule, all of which give Link special upgrades as well as heal his wounds. The three Great Fairies are the '''Great Butterfly Fairy''', the '''Great Dragonfly Fairy''' and the '''Great Mayfly Fairy'''. In each case, they possess wings resembling those of the insect from which they take their names. Each of the Great Fairies greatly resemble the Great Fairies that appear in {{FS|-}}.
Three {{Plural|TMC|Great Fairy}} appear in {{TMC}}, each one found in a {{Term|TMC|Great Fairy Fountain|link}} hidden in {{Term|TMC|Hyrule|link}}. Their appearances are based off different {{Plural|TMC|Insect|link}}. They each test {{Term|TMC|Link|link}} in a different manner and reward him if he passes.
The '''Great Butterfly Fairy''' is found in the northern section of the [[Minish Woods]]. She mentions she is in need of Rupees and asks Link for all of his. If he agrees, she tells Link that she does not really need any Rupees and rewards Link's generosity with a larger Wallet.<ref>{{Cite|You are most kind. I do not really need your Rupees. But I must reward such a kind adventurer with some of my power.|Great Butterfly Fairy|TMC}}</ref>
The '''Great Mayfly Fairy''' is found on [[Mount Crenel]]. If Link throws a Bomb into her fountain, she will ask if he threw a gold or a silver one. If Link gives an honest answer, she rewards him with a bigger [[Bomb Bag]].<ref>{{Cite|You are honest. I must reward such an honest adventurer with some of my power.|Great Mayfly Fairy|TMC}}</ref>
The '''Great Dragonfly Fairy''' is found in the [[Royal Valley]]. She asks Link to tell her of his adventures, and asks a series of questions regarding several key details of his journey. If Link answers all of her questions correctly, she will reward him with a larger [[Quiver]].<ref>{{Cite|I see. Thank you for telling me about your quest. You remember it all so well.

====Great Rupee Fairy====
[[File:GreatRupeeFairyALBW.png|70px|left]]
The '''Great Rupee Fairy''' is found in [[Lorule]], in a cave behind the [[Bomb Flower Store]]. Once [[Link]] has access to the [[Big Bomb Flower]], the entrance to her fountain can be opened by blowing up the large rock in front of it.
When Link first enters the fountain, he can throw in either 50 or 200 Rupees. By doing so, the Great Rupee Fairy will restore Link's Hearts and release some Fairies.<ref>{{Cite|A small token of gratitude.|Great Rupee Fairy|ALBW}}</ref> After throwing in a total of 3,000 Rupees, she will grow back to her normal size and reward Link with a [[Bottle]].<ref>{{Cite|Let me give you this bottle. May it prove useful in your travels.|Great Rupee Fairy|ALBW}}</ref> Link will no longer be able to make donations to the fountain after he is given the Bottle, and therefore will no longer be able to see the Great Rupee Fairy. However, Fairies can be obtained in her fountain upon returning to the cave.

==={{BotW|-}}===
==={{BotW|-}}===
Four Great Fairies appear in {{BotW}} as sisters. The lack of visitors to their fountains in the 100 years since the [[Great Calamity]] has left them all in a weakened state.{{Fact}} Link must donate an increasingly larger amount of [[Rupee]]s to each of them in order to restore them to full strength. Once restored, the Great Fairies will be able to upgrade Link's [[Armor]] in exchange for [[Material]]s.
In {{BotW}} only four Great Fairies appear, named [[Cotera]], [[Kaysa]], [[Mija]] and [[Tera]]. At first they are found in closed fairy fountains resembling a large flower bud. To restore them, Link must offer them an increasing amount of Rupees. Once restored they will upgrade Link's armor when provided with the proper materials, though the max level depends on the total number of restored Fairies. Additionally, a fifth fairy fountain can be found, but it contains the Horse God [[Malanya]] instead, though his hands resemble those of a Great Fairy.
The Great Fairies can provide up to four upgrades for each piece of Armor; however, the number of Great Fairies that Link has restored correlates to the amount of times he can upgrade. They can be found and restored in any order at the following locations:
*[[Cotera]], located in the woods above [[Kakariko Village]] in [[West Necluda]].
*[[Kaysa]], south of [[Tabantha Tower]] in [[Tabantha Frontier]].
*[[Mija]], in the woods south of [[Tarrey Town]] in [[Akkala]].
*[[Tera]], at the southwestern edge of the [[Gerudo Desert]].

In {{HW}}, Great Fairies appear in several Scenarios, heavily modeled on the {{OoT|-}} incarnation. They are supportive characters who live inside [[Fairy Fountain]]s, and they may be summoned by praying to them for aid inside of [[Magic Circle]]s. They help in various ways, depending on the battle; such as sending Fairies to drop giant Bombs on enemy units, calling upon a recreation of the Terminian [[Moon (Object)|Moon]] to knock [[Argorok]] out of the sky, or sending a rain of energy that destroys several enemies on the field. Great Fairies appear in [[Hyrule Field (Hyrule Warriors)|Hyrule Field]], [[Faron Woods (Hyrule Warriors)|Faron Woods]], [[Valley of Seers]], [[Palace of Twilight (Hyrule Warriors)|Palace of Twilight]], and [[Skyloft (Hyrule Warriors)|Skyloft]], where their fountains can be found. Whether they are summoned or not depends on the Scenario.

[[Great Fairy (Item)|Great Fairies]] are also a class of Weapon used by Link, in which control switches to the Great Fairy (as the Weapon) while Link is kept inside of a giant Bottle. The kind of Great Fairy that appears depends on the level of Weapon used. The Great Fairy uses magic attacks and magically-enhanced physical attacks in battle. In some combo attacks, Link is momentarily released as he and the Great Fairy perform special, combined attacks, including a form of [[Dead Man's Volley]] that targets surrounding enemies. The Great Fairy's enormous size makes her a powerful character, and her attacks cover a wide range. The Great Fairy Weapon is of the [[Element (Hyrule Warriors)|Water Element]].

Great Fairies,(ALttP | LA | OoT | MM | FS | TWW | TMC | TP | BotW)[4][5][6][7][8][9] also known as Guardian Spirits,(BotW)[10] are recurring characters in The Legend of Zelda series. They are large humanoid Fairies.[11] Their main purpose is to heal Link whenever he is wounded and will also recover his Magic Meter in games that incorporate a Magic Meter.[12] In other titles, such as Ocarina of Time and The Wind Waker, they also bless Link with new items, powers, or upgrades of his existing equipment. The Great Fairies' appearance differ vastly between games, and most of them can be found living within a Great Fairy Fountain.
In The Legend of Zelda, while not specifically referred to as a Great Fairy, and appearing as a normal Fairy, there are a few ponds in the Hyrule overworld where they can be found. These pool-dwelling Fairies have the same role as Great Fairies in later games; they will only appear if Link approaches their pond with less than full health, and will instantly recover all of his Hearts.
A Link to the Past
In A Link to the Past, Great Fairies can easily be found scattered throughout Hyrule in either caves or holes. When Link approaches one, she will completely heal his wounds. Great Fairies seem able to maintain their normal forms even while in the Dark World, despite its corrupting effects.
At the Waterfall of Wishing near Zora's Waterfall lives a Great Fairy who is known to be a friend of Venus.[13] She looks identical to Venus with the exception of her wings, which are smaller and more green. The Fairy at the Waterfall of Wishing appears when Link throws various items into the Mysterious Pond and will ask him if he was the one who dropped them. She will return any item thrown by the hero, but if he drops certain items, she will instead give him better items or upgrades of the item if Link answers her questions honestly.[14] These include the Boomerang, which she upgrades to the Magical Boomerang, the blue Level-1 Fighter's Shield, which she upgrades to the Red Shield, and a Bottle, which she fills with Medicine of Magic.
Link's Awakening
In Link's Awakening, Great Fairies are found scattered throughout certain areas of Koholint Island, usually in a cave that houses a small pond and two Fairy statues. They heal Link's wounds when approached. Not all Great Fairies in Link's Awakening live in a cave, there is one that lives in a small pond in the Mysterious Woods. There is also the Fairy Queen who only makes an appearance in Link's Awakening DX, and resides in the last room of the Color Dungeon, a dungeon exclusive to Link's Awakening DX. As thanks for visiting her, she rewards Link with the "power of color"; a choice between the Red Clothes, which increases Link's attack power, or the Blue Clothes, which increases Link's defense.[15] Link can visit the Fairy Queen again to swap between the two tunics, but he can never get his green tunic back once he has swapped it for another tunic.
Ocarina of Time
In Ocarina of Time, Great Fairies are depicted as giant women who wear ivy vines and leather boots for clothing, and have red hair that is tied into three pigtails. This also marks the first time that Great Fairies are seen without wings. Their locations are scattered throughout Hyrule, where they live in certain Great Fairy Fountains that all have the Triforce symbol engraved on the floor in front of their pond. By playing "Zelda's Lullaby" on this symbol, the fountain's Great Fairy will be summoned. Great Fairies, when first called, will bless Link with either a new item or an upgrade. The color of their fountain's walls also vary from either blue or red to signify what kind of blessing they will give. Three of the Great Fairies give out Din's Fire, Nayru's Love and Farore's Wind. Another three will upgrade Link's abilities, giving him the Magic Spin Attack and the Magic Meter, a larger Magic Meter, and doubled defense in the form of an extended health bar.
The Great Fairies can also be summoned again at their fountains to recover Link's health as well as his Magic Meter. All three of the Great Fairies who give out Din's Fire, Nayru's Love and Farore's Wind refer to themselves as the Great Fairy of Magic,[16] and possibly may be the same Great Fairy. The Great Fairies who bless Link with a magical sword spin attack, a larger Magic Meter, and a defense upgrade are referred to as the Great Fairy of Power,[17] the Great Fairy of Wisdom,[18] and the Great Fairy of Courage, respectively.[19]
In Majora's Mask, the Great Fairies share the same in-game model as the ones from Ocarina of Time, though with each one having a different hair color and eyebrow shape. Five Great Fairies appear in Termina, all having been torn apart into 15 Stray Fairies by the evil power of Majora's Mask. The only Great Fairy that needs to be restored in order to progress in the game is the one in North Clock Town, who grants Link the ability to use Magic, and only one Stray Fairy has to be found for her to once again be complete. For the other four optional Great Fairies, Link must recover the 15 Stray Fairies scattered around the dungeons that are found in each corner of Termina in order to be rewarded with upgrades and a special weapon.
In Oracle of Ages, many Great Fairies appear through Labrynna. Near the Eyeglass Island Library in the past, Link encounters the Fairy Queen, guardian of the Zora Seas, who was cursed by Veran into an Octorok-shape so that the evil sorceress could poison the seas and kill the Zoras without the Fairy Queen's interference.[24] She asks Link to find the Fairy Powder hidden in the nearby Library to heal her,[25] and once he does, she cleanses the pollution from the sea, returning its natural beauty and restoring health to the King Zora and Lord Jabu-Jabu.[26][27][28]
In The Wind Waker, there are seven Great Fairies, five of which reside in fountains under a giant shell. They have dark skins, light hairstyles and dresses and have four arms. One must be rescued from inside a Big Octo at Two-Eye Reef.[32] Another Great Fairy, the Fortune Goddess,[33] lives in the Forest of Fairies in Outset Island and gives Link a larger Wallet.
The upgrades received, along with the names of the islands in which the Great Fairies are located, are as follows:
Pink Great Fairy: Wallet upgrade.
Northern Fairy Island – There is no obstacle blocking the entrance; this fountain can be visited as soon as the Forbidden Woods have been completed.
Western Fairy Island – The Skull Hammer must be used to hit the nearby stake and remove the fire blocking the entrance.
Thorned Fairy Island – The Skull Hammer must be used to hit the three nearby stakes and remove the thorns blocking the entrance.
After granting Link their respective upgrades, the Great Fairies subsequently vanish from their fountains, leaving in their place a handful of healing fairies, which Link can also capture in Bottles for later use.
The seven Great Fairies who are destined to aid the Great Hero by increasing his powers are hiding in seven different reaches of the Great Sea.
Four Swords Adventures
In Four Swords Adventures, Link can encounter a Great Fairy while inside certain dungeons or caves. If Link throws in a certain item into the Great Fairy's pond, she will upgrade it to a Level 2 item. For example, throwing in the Slingshot will allow Link to shoot seeds from three different directions at the same time. Encountering these Great Fairies is crucial in order to solve various puzzles within the stages. The Fairy Queen also appears in Four Swords Adventures, during the Hyrule Castle level.
Three Great Fairies appear in The Minish Cap, each one found in a Great Fairy Fountain hidden in Hyrule. Their appearances are based off different Insects. They each test Link in a different manner and reward him if he passes.
Twilight Princess
In Twilight Princess, a Great Fairy appears within the Cave of Ordeals in the fountains that are found every ten floors. Each time Link reaches a new fountain, the Great Fairy will send healing Fairies to one of the Spirit Springs across Hyrule.[34] The first time Link reaches the fountain on the 50th floor, the Great Fairy will reward him by filling one of the young hero's empty Bottles with Great Fairy's Tears.[35] She will also tell him that he can get more Tears by going to any of the Light Spirit's Springs, although Link will only be able to have one Bottle filled with Great Fairy's Tears at any given time.[36] However, should he complete the Cave of Ordeals again, he will be able to fill another Bottle with the Tears at the fountain on the 50th floor, allowing him to have more than one.[citation needed] The Great Fairy can also warp Link out of the Cave of Ordeals if he asks her to.
A Link Between Worlds
In A Link Between Worlds, Great Fairies are commonly found scattered throughout the land of Hyrule. Many of them can be found in the same places as the previous Great Fairies. These Great Fairies will completely heal Link every time they are visited.
In Breath of the Wild only four Great Fairies appear, named Cotera, Kaysa, Mija and Tera. At first they are found in closed fairy fountains resembling a large flower bud. To restore them, Link must offer them an increasing amount of Rupees. Once restored they will upgrade Link's armor when provided with the proper materials, though the max level depends on the total number of restored Fairies. Additionally, a fifth fairy fountain can be found, but it contains the Horse God Malanya instead, though his hands resemble those of a Great Fairy.
A mystical being. From Outset Island to Fairy Island to areas all throughout the world, there are many fairy springs. Great Fairies are powerful fairies residing at springs called Great Fairy Fountains. These powerful fairies often reward Link with Rupees, arrows, and bombs. The ones in The Wind Waker look very different from the ones in Ocarina of Time.
The Great Fairy, with Link in a bottle, in Hyrule Warriors
In Hyrule Warriors, Great Fairies appear in several Scenarios, heavily modeled on the Ocarina of Time incarnation. They are supportive characters who live inside Fairy Fountains, and they may be summoned by praying to them for aid inside of Magic Circles. They help in various ways, depending on the battle; such as sending Fairies to drop giant Bombs on enemy units, calling upon a recreation of the Terminian Moon to knock Argorok out of the sky, or sending a rain of energy that destroys several enemies on the field. Great Fairies appear in Hyrule Field, Faron Woods, Valley of Seers, Palace of Twilight, and Skyloft, where their fountains can be found. Whether they are summoned or not depends on the Scenario.
Great Fairies are also a class of Weapon used by Link, in which control switches to the Great Fairy (as the Weapon) while Link is kept inside of a giant Bottle. The kind of Great Fairy that appears depends on the level of Weapon used. The Great Fairy uses magic attacks and magically-enhanced physical attacks in battle. In some combo attacks, Link is momentarily released as he and the Great Fairy perform special, combined attacks, including a form of Dead Man's Volley that targets surrounding enemies. The Great Fairy's enormous size makes her a powerful character, and her attacks cover a wide range. The Great Fairy Weapon is of the Water Element.
In the Boss DLC Pack, Great Fairies appear as giant bosses that are fought in Ganon's Fury Mode. They appear in battles acting as healers to other giant bosses that Ganon fights. They must first be defeated in order to prevent the other bosses from recovering. They continue to carry giant Bottles, although with Link absent, and do not perform any attacks that require both the Great Fairy and Link.
• The enemy's special moves have increased power • The enemy is healed significantly when the enemy's at high damage • The enemy's FS Meter charges quickly

In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, the Great Fairy appears as a Spirit with the ability, Critical-Health Healing, which heals the user when they reach high damage.
In Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity, the four sisters of the Great Fairies from Breath of the Wild; Cotera, Tera, Kaysa and Mija, as well as Malanya, fight as a single warrior (by way of sharing their pool) using their magic bracelets as their weapon. Their unique action is dependent on which of the Great Fairies is currently active, as they will change places with each other as they attack.
There is an error in the Great Fairies' names in the North American release of Majora's Mask. The Great Fairy found by Snowhead Temple introduces herself as the Great Fairy of Wisdom, and then the Great Fairy of Courage on subsequent visits. Likewise, the Great Fairy near the Great Bay Coast says she is the Great Fairy of Courage, and then the Great Fairy of Wisdom. This is not present in the Japanese and European releases, in which Snowhead's Great Fairy is the Great Fairy of Wisdom, and Great Bay's Great Fairy is the Great Fairy of Courage.[citation needed]
These names, though from official English sources, are not considered Canon by Zelda Wiki as they contradict a name or names from a higher-priority source.
