Bubbulfrogs are large, frog-like creatures found in Caves. They are pale blue and have yellow horns, similar to Blupees and Satori. Bubbulfrogs will spit harmless bubbles at Link which can be popped. If Link attacks a Bubbulfrog enough, its body will ascend and fade, leaving behind a Bubbul Gem and a Blupee.[1][3] If Link leaves the area without collecting the Bubbul Gem, the Bubbulfrog will reappear when Link returns. Once the Bubbul Gem has been collected, the Bubbulfrog will not respawn.
There are a total of 147 Bubbulfrogs in Hyrule. As noted by the Tips and Tricks screen, one can be found in every Cave.[4] Caves which have already had their Bubbul Gems acquired will appear with a check mark on their icon on the Purah Pad's Map. Koltin can discern the locations of specific preset Bubbulfrogs, provided their Bubbul Gems have not been collected.
Nomenclature
"Bubbulfrog" is derived from the words "bubble" and "frog". However, in Japanese, Bubbulfrogs' name more clearly links them with Satori: they are called マヨイ (Mayoi), as in the word 迷い (Mayoi) ("delusion"), referring to the Buddhist concept of "inability to reach enlightenment". This contrasts the name of Satori (サトリ (Satori), literally "knowing"), which is similarly the Japanese Buddhist term for "awakening" or "enlightenment".
