Pumpkins are recurring Objects and Items in The Legend of Zelda series.(BotWBreath of the Wild | TotKTears of the Kingdom | HWLHyrule Warriors Legends | AoCAge of Calamity)[1][2][3][4][5][name references needed] They occur sometimes as a visual element, sometimes as an item, sometimes as a breakable container, and sometimes as a combination of these. They appeared mainly as a recurring visual motif until Twilight Princess, where physical pumpkins and their products became considerably more important.
Location and Uses
Oracle of Ages
The first Boss in Oracle of Ages is Pumpkin Head, who, as its name suggests, is a spirit with a Pumpkin (specifically a Jack-o'-lantern) for a head. This continues the theme of Pumpkins as a symbol of evil spirits seen in A Link to the Past.
Twilight Princess
Main article: Ordon Pumpkin
Pumpkins feature prominently in Twilight Princess as one of the main exports of Ordon Village. In Ordon Village, Link can find Pumpkins in the fields. These can be smashed to get Pumpkin Seeds, which are the primary ammunition for the Slingshot. The Scarecrows near Link's House also appear to have Pumpkins for heads. An Ordon Pumpkin is also found in a Treasure Chest in Snowpeak Ruins, although Yeta misremembered the chest as containing the Bedroom Key. When added to the Simple Soup, the Ordon Pumpkin converts it to Good Soup, which restores four Hearts as opposed to two.
Skyward Sword
Pumpkins seem to be the primary agricultural product of Skyloftians in Skyward Sword. One of the islands in the Sky, Pumpkin Landing, being dedicated to growing Pumpkins, as it is the home to a sizable (by The Legend of Zelda game standards) Pumpkin patch and the Lumpy Pumpkin, a pub specializing in Pumpkin Soup. Even the decor of the establishment is Pumpkin-themed, as are the names of the father and daughter who staff it. Pumpkins can also be found on the main island of Skyloft in smaller patches. There is also a minigame in Skyward Sword involving Pumpkins, that being Pumpkin Pull. As in Twilight Princess, Pumpkins can be smashed, although they yield a variety of items, as Pots do.

I firmly believe that Hateno Village's charm is in the delicious vegetables and milk from our farms. But there's no denying that these things just aren't resonating with the youth nowadays. And I've got no business being mayor if I can't fix that. So I got together with Nack, the best farmer in these parts, and we came up with a new type of pumpkin. The color, shape, and appearance are based on the Cece brand aesthetic, which is popular with the young folk. We've hit a snag though. It might be a bit before we can achieve our goal of shipping the pumpkins out.
