Keaton as seen in Majora's Mask

Keatons are a race of fox-like creatures. They are first mentioned in Ocarina of Time, and appear as ally in Majora's Mask and as enemy in The Minish Cap.

Keaton's characteristics are derived from the mythological Japanese fox creature, kitsune, and its appearance may also be a reference to Pikachu, or Ninetales, both Pokémon characters. They have yellow fur and three tails with black fur on the tip of each tail; Keatons are said to recognize one another by the sheen of their tails.[1]

Keaton is a yellow fox with 3 tails that appears in Majora's Mask. To get him to appear, Link needs to obtain and equip the Keaton Mask and cut some Moving Grass in North Clock Town, Mountain Village or along Milk Road.[3] Keaton will then appear and ask the young hero five questions about things in Majora's Mask.[4][5] If he answers them all right, Link will obtain a Piece of Heart. There are a total of thirty questions that could possibly be asked. If Link does not answer the questions correctly, he can try again, but the Keaton can only be summoned once every three-day period. Choosing to summon the Keaton again and answering the five questions after receiving the Heart Piece will yield a Red Rupee as a reward.
