Official Art of Zora Link

Zora Link is the form Link takes after putting on the Zora's Mask. When you first enter Great Bay, you will see seagulls flying around Mikau. You bring him ashore, and play the Song of Healing, allowing him to be put to rest, and obtaining the Zora's Mask. The item is vital to the Great Bay Temple. Zora Link is specific to The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask. Pressing B three times will make him lunge his right arm forward, then swing, attempting to hit something with the left fin, and end with him kicking up in the air.. Hold the B button, and he will put his hands together. Release, and two boomerangs will go flying in the air and come back to him. Zora link can swim like a fish, which is faster. Just pressing the A button will do it. While doing this, you can swim towards the surface, and he will leap in the air, much like a dolphin. He can also sink, and walk on the bottom of the body of water you are in.

Jumping like a dolphin is key to defeating Gyorg. If you don't use that technique, he will chew you. Zora Link's boomerangs come in handy, and so does his next ability. While in the water, you can press the R button to make an electric aura around you. You can swim into enemies, and they take damage. Most die from this, but some like Gyorg just take damage. Pressing the R button on land will extend his right fin and make it into a shield.


Miscellaneous

Some fun facts about Zora Link.

- The Ocarina makes him take out a guitar, and you can use the control stick to move him in different positions.

- Dogs will come running up to you and make a whimpering sound, showing they like you.

- The "putting on the mask" cutscene will make Link's eyes big and black and give him a big mouth, much like a combination of the Deku Link's and Goron Link's transformation.

- All Zoras have a fin coming out of their heads. Zora Link has a green and pointed fin, much like Link's hat.

- There are 3 well known glitches involving Zora Link. The first is here. The second is regarding that shed in Romani Ranch. First become a Goron. Then bounce up onto the shed. Becoming a Zora will allow you to jump into the Romani Racetrack. The final can be done at Great Bay. Swim a little bit. Use the dolphin jump at the end of a swim move. In the middle of the jump, use a swim move. As long as you remain Zora, keep swimming and avoid above-water obstacles, you will be able to fly as a Zora. Medli, from a bird race called Rito, being Laruto's successor, could reference this glitch.
