'''Lily Pads''' are disc-shaped leaves that appear in several games of {{LZS|Series}}. They are found floating on water and are similar to their real-world counterparts of the same name.

In some games, they are featured as a game mechanic, generally as a platform to stand on, while in others they are just aesthetic.
==Location and Uses==
In most games, {{Plural|Series|Lily Pad}} are merely aesthetic objects that serve no purpose other than being part of scenery. In some games, however, including {{ALttP}}, {{LA}}, and {{OoS}}, they appear as giant plants that act as solid platforms in otherwise watery areas where the water is shallow. Since walking in shallow water slows [[Link]] down, these platforms can be used to walk on instead. These Lily Pads usually appear in swamp locations, such as the [[Swamp of Evil]], [[Goponga Swamp]], and [[Spool Swamp]], respectively.


==Appearances==
In {{OoT}}, there are Lily Pads in the [[Fishing Hole#Ocarina of Time|Fishing Pond]]. These serve as nothing but scenery, however, the [[Sinking Lure]] and the [[Hyrule Loach]] can potentially be found among them. The [[Fishing Hole]] in {{TP}} has similar Lily Pads.

==={{MM|-}}===
In {{MM}}, Lily Pads appear as platforms that Link can cross. They can be found in the [[Southern Swamp]] and [[Woodfall]], both in areas with normal water and in areas with poisonous water. Lily Pads can also be found in the [[Swamp Fishing Hole]] in {{MM3D}}.


===''Majora's Mask''===
When Link is in his normal form, he can climb and stand on one of these for only a few seconds before it collapses under him. After a while, it reappears. However, as [[Deku Link]] weighs less, as long as Link is wearing the [[Deku Mask]], he can stand on one without it collapsing. Due to this attribute, Deku Link can use the Lily Pads to safely navigate the poisonous waters of [[Termina]]'s swampland. Doing so is necessary to access certain areas of the [[Deku Palace]].

[[File:Lilypad 2 MM.jpg|Deku Link standing on top of a Lily Pad|left|thumb]]
A similar type of Lily Pad, under which [[Bio Deku Baba]]s can live, can be found in the [[Great Bay Temple]], as well as in [[Cave|Secret Grottoes]]. This variety will support all of Link's forms. A Bio Deku Baba will rotate with its Lily Pad when it turns toward Link, and if Link tries to use it as a platform it will eventually flip and toss him off.

If a Bio Deku Baba is attached, the Lily Pad will rotate along with the Bio Deku Baba as it turns to face Link, and if Link tries to use it as a platform it will flip over and toss Link off.
==={{TWW|-}}===
In {{TWW}}, a single large Lily Pad appears in the [[Forest Haven]]. Link must stand on it in order to speak to the [[Great Deku Tree]].


===''Four Swords Adventures''===
==={{FSA|-}}===
In {{FSA}}, Lily Pads act as platforms in [[The Swamp]] stage. The Links can use the [[Roc's Feather]] to hop from pad to pad, avoiding the poisonous water. At times [[River Zora|Zoras]] will pop up from under a Lily Pad, sending anyone on top of the Lily Pad high into the air. The Links can perform a super jump this way by allowing themselves to be flung into the air in order to reach another Lily Pad or even land on the ground.

===''The Minish Cap''===
==={{TMC|-}}===
[[File:Lily Pad TMC.png|left]]
Two varieties of {{Plural|TMC|Lily Pad}} appear in {{TMC}}. Small, three-leaved {{Plural|TMC|Lily Pad}} are found in {{Term|TMC|Overworld|link}} areas where there is water. They appear in shallow streams and puddles in {{Term|TMC|Minish Woods|link}}, as well as the deeper water and swamplands of {{Term|TMC|Castor Wilds|link}}. The three {{Plural|TMC|Lily Pad}} that appear in {{Term|TMC|Castor Wilds}} only appear as a result of three separate {{Plural|TMC|Kinstone Fusion|link}} with either {{Term|TMC|Zill|link}} or a {{Term|TMC|Forest Picori|link}} in {{Term|TMC|Minish Village|link}}.
In {{TMC}}, Lily Pads can be found in areas where Link must be [[Minish Link|Minish-sized]] and where there is water, such as streams and puddles in [[Hyrule]] and the two Minish-sized dungeons: [[Deepwood Shrine]] and the [[Temple of Droplets]].


Such Lily Pads can be propelled if Link uses the [[Gust Jar]] to shoot bursts of air in the opposite direction. This is required to navigate these areas. Stretches of water navigable in this manner frequently have [[Pesto]]s flying overhead that will attack Link if he draws near.
The other type of {{Term|TMC|Lily Pad}} appears in {{Term|TMC|Minish}}-sized paths at {{Term|TMC|Lake Hylia|link}} and {{Term|TMC|Castor Wilds}}, as well as {{Term|TMC|Deepwood Shrine|link}} and the {{Term|TMC|Temple of Droplets|link}}. These {{Plural|TMC|Lily Pad}} can be drawn in and propelled with the {{Term|TMC|Gust Jar|link}}; {{Term|TMC|Link}} can shoot bursts of air in the opposite direction to propel it forward. This is required to navigate these areas. Stretches of water navigable in this manner frequently have {{Plural|TMC|Pesto|link}} flying overhead that will attack {{Term|TMC|Link}} if he draws near.


===''Skyward Sword''===
==={{TP|-}}===
[[File:Lilypad whip.jpg|Link using the [[Whip]] to flip over a Lily Pad in the Ancient Cistern|thumb|right]]
{{Stub|TPHD}}
{{Plural|TPHD|Lily Pad}} appear inside the {{Term|TPHD|Forest Temple|link}}.
 
==={{SS|-}}===
In {{SS}}, Lily Pads are large enough to support Link, and have pink thorns that branch out underneath. There are two types of Lily Pad. One has a small cluster of thorns around the base of a hook-like structure extending from the bottom. The other has a much larger cluster of thorns on the bottom and no hook. Both of these types can be found in the [[Ancient Cistern]], and also [[Faron Woods]] when it is flooded.

Both of these types can be found in the [[Ancient Cistern]], and also [[Faron Woods]] when it is flooded.  


If Link jumps down from a high place onto either variety of Lily Pad, it will flip over. If a Lily Pad with the hook-like structure is flipped over with the thorns on top, Link can use the [[Whip]] to grab the hook and flip it over again. This does not work on the hookless variety, however.
If Link jumps down from a high place onto either variety of Lily Pad, it will flip over.<ref>{{Cite|The giant green lily pads in this area can be {{Color|SS Red|turned upside down}} by jumping down onto them from a great height.|Fi|SS}}</ref> If a Lily Pad with the hook-like structure is flipped over with the thorns on top, Link can use the [[Whip]] to grab the hook and flip it over again. This does not work on the hookless variety, however.


Link will get injured if he touches the thorns. As long as the thorns are on top, he cannot stand on it, and the thorns will also block his path underwater. The hookless variety with the large cluster of thorns is often found blocking passages in the Ancient Cistern, and one such Lily Pad has a [[Tadtone]] trapped in its thorns when Faron Woods is flooded.

==={{TotK|-}}===
{{Plural|TotK|Lily Pad}} appear in the waters of the {{Plural|TotK|Sky Island|link}}.
==={{CoH|-}}===
{{Ambig|Start}}
Small {{Plural|CoH|Lily Pad}} can be found in {{Term|CoH|Water (Terrain)|link}} throughout {{Term|CoH|Hyrule|link}}, and large {{Plural|CoH|Lily Pad}} can be found in certain {{Plural|CoH|Cave|link}}.
{{Ambig|End}}


==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*The {{wp|Nymphaeaceae|water lily}} is the real-world counterpart, and the {{wp|Victoria (plant)|Giant waterlily}} is an even larger variety that is strong enough to hold a person, which is likely the inspiration for the Lily Pad's ability to stay afloat with Link on top of it.
