A Chuchu is a gelatinous being that occurs naturally in the world in a variation of colours (e.g. green and red most commonly, while blue, yellow, and purple are more rare). Each colour possess a special trait, which allows the Chuchu great skills in combat. Some of these traits include dispersion, electrical charges, or the ability to multiply. When ultimately defeated, the Chuchu will naturally drop an essence of jelly, which can be stored in an empty bottle, or in some cases, a spoils bag. In turn, the Chuchu jelly can be simply sold to your nearest nautical-shop-owning Beedle, or handed over to a jelly specialist, who, when given an appropriate amount of said jelly, will then use the jelly to form special potions (stored in empty bottles), with each different-coloured potion serving a different function as well. Chuchus, by nature, tend to be a gregarious bunch, and roam the world in packs. When a Chuchu senses danger, they will let out a mid-pitched skreech, mixed with an unsettling gurgle-like noise, and immediately leap towards the threat. The simplest tactic to defeating a Chuchu is a series of simple slashes with the sword, an arrow or two, or other methods, which include a boomerang to first stun the foe, then finishing them off with any means necessary. A grappling hook can also be used on the Chuchu, which will extract their previously-mentioned jelly essence prior to defeat. Many theorise where the Chuchu's true allegiance lies; they are either wild, untamed beasts roaming at their own leisure, or monsters enlisted in the army of Ganondorf, cast under his control. Nonetheless, the Chuchu no doubt holds a strong disdain for elves / Hylians clad in green tunics. They can most commonly be found in low-lying marshes, underwater caves and grottos, or in dungeons and temples.
