The Red ChuChu is one of the more common forms of the reccurring The Legend of Zelda enemy, the ChuChu. The basic ChuChu is a blob of a certain color of a type of gelatin. Red ChuChus are red in color, but are one of the more basic types of ChuChus and pose little threat compared to other types of ChuChus. They are in six of the different titles, but they have different appearances in almost all of the games.

Appearances

Majora's Mask

		That's a Red Chuchu. It's nothing really to be afraid of! It's not unusual to find something in its stomach that might be of use.

In Majora's Mask, ChuChus are round-shaped blobs of jelly with two stalks that hold their eyes. Red ChuChus in this game are no exception, and have the same shape as all the other ChuChus in the game. Inside of the red ChuChu is a visible Recovery Heart, which is dropped when they are defated easily by almost any weapon. In this game, the ChuChu quickly regenerates back into its old form after Link defeats it.

The Wind Waker

Red ChuChus in The Wind Waker are commonly found scattered around the Great Sea, and are the easiest of all the ChuChus to find. They have no defense, unlike other ChuChus in this game, and only bounce after Link when they spot him. After they are defeated, they drop Chu Jelly, which can be given to Doc Bandam as an ingredient for a Red Potion.

The Minish Cap

Red ChuChus are found mainly in overworlds and dungeons in The Minish Cap, but like rocky areas such as Mount Crenel. In this game, red ChuChus are almost the same as Green ChuChus, however they have more attack power and drop more hearts than green ChuChus.

Phantom Hourglass

Red ChuChus are, again, very common in Phantom Hourglass, and are found on many of the islands. All they do to attack is to slowly walk into Link; they have no other attack or defense. They are easily defeated and serve more as a distraction than a major dangerous enemy.

Spirit Tracks

Red ChuChus are almost exactly the same in Spirit Tracks as they are in Phantom Hourglass.

Skyward Sword

		Target lock: Red Chuchu The red Chuchu has an exceedingly high body temperature. Avoid all physical contact, or your clothing and shield may burst into flames. In the event you are set on fire, I recommend you quickly extinguish the flames by performing a roll.

Red ChuChus take on a new shape in this game, appearing more as rounded blobs than standing up creatures. Their mouth takes up almost all of their body, and the larger ChuChus can be split into smaller ChuChus before they are defeated. The red ChuChu also has a new ability: fire. Red ChuChus in Skyward Sword have fire embedded into their gelatin, making them extremely hot to the touch. If Link gets touched by one of the red ChuChus, he will be set on fire and will have to roll on the ground or do a spin attack to put the fire out.

Battle Quest

		Despite looking soft and adorable, these creatures can deliver a nasty surprise. Chuchu jelly is medicinal, but don't get any brilliant ideas--Nintendo Land Chuchus are 100% jelly free.

Red ChuChu are some of the most simplistic enemies featured in Battle Quest. They are the very first enemies the player encounters in the first level of the game, The Grasslands. One swipe from the player's Sword or one shot from the Hero's Bow and the Red ChuChu will be defeated.
