Bottle

Bottles, or Empty Bottles, are reappearing items in the Legend of Zelda series. They are very useful for carrying things that might come in handy such as fish, bugs, worms, water, potions, Poes, Lon Lon Milk, fairies, bee larva, Good Bees and other various things. In nearly all games where bottles appear, they can be directly used to store items in; however, in The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, the player must use the Bug Catching Net to store items in bottles.

In most games, four bottles can be found in all; however, in The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, six bottles can be obtained. Sometimes, bottles are required to continue the game.

A Link to the Past
There are four bottles in A Link to the Past. Two can be found in Kakariko Village; one can be purchased from a vendor and the other is found inside a chest in the back of the tavern, which can only be entered through a back door. Another is given by a camper beneath a bridge east of Hyrule Castle in the Overworld.

The last bottle is stored inside a chest found where the Smithy's Shop used to be in the Dark World. If Link brings the chest with him to the Desert of Misery in the Light World, a strange man and former thief will pick the lock on the chest for him in exchange for Link keeping quiet about him being a former thief.
