 ChuChu | Habitat: Varied Spoils: Chu Jelly There are ChuChus of many different colors, all with their own distinct characteristics. In general, they are most susceptible to projectile weapons. |
In The Wind Waker, Red Chuchus are among the most common encountered type of Chuchus, and can be found on Pawprint Isle and Dragon Roost Cavern, as well as Forest Haven and the Earth and Wind Temples. They are the lowest form of Chuchu that possess no unique traits, and are thus the easiest to slay. Sometimes forming groups of three, their attack deals little damage. As simple as they are, they are valued as they can be slain for Red Chu Jelly, which can make health-replenishing Red Potions.

Red Chuchus also come in an additional variant called Rock Chuchus. Appearing in Veil Falls, they wear a rocky helmet over their face. When their helmets are destroyed, they turn into regular Red Chuchus.
