Bunny Hood

Item description

The Bunny Hood debuted in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time as a collectible mask. The Bunny Hood is a type of headgear that contains two bunny ears sticking out on top of the it. One of the side missions in the game required Young Link to sell various masks to the citizens of Hyrule. Young Link found the Running Man in Hyrule Field and sold the Bunny Hood to him. In exchange, the running man paid him the maximum amount of rupees that Young Link's wallet could hold. Once Young Link sold the Bunny Hood, he was able to borrow it from the Happy Mask Salesman at anytime. The Bunny Hood returns as a collectible mask in The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask. In this game, Young Link can collect the Bunny Hood from Grog. When wearing the Bunny Hood, Young Link's speed and jumping distance increases.

The Bunny Hood appears as an item in Super Smash Bros. Melee. Once picked up, a character will wear it on his or her head for the duration of its effects. It can fall off of a character if they are hit hard enough. The Bunny Hood will increase the distance of the characters first and second jump. It will also work on Jigglypuff and Kirby's additional jumps. The Bunny Hood lasts around twelve seconds. The Bunny Hood also appears as a collectible trophy. It also causes an increase in character speed.

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl

The Bunny Hood returns in Super Smash Bros. Brawl with similar effects from the previous game. In addition, a "Bunny" option exists in Super Smash Bros. Brawl's Special Brawl mode, which gives every character a permanent Bunny Hood. The Bunny Hood appears as a collectible trophy in Brawl.

Trophy description

Headgear that hugely improves your jump and movement abilities. True to its name, the hood comes with a pair of cute, fuzzy ears. On the right characters, they're as cute as can be, but on the wrong ones, they're...scary. Of course, that adds to the item's charm. The sudden speed increase you get is responsible for more than a few self-destructs, so be careful.

• The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (1998)
• The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask (2000)

The Trophy Description states that the sudden speed increase is responsible for multiple Self-destructs. This is because Sonic wearing a Bunny Hood makes him extremely fast, even faster than Wario-Man's Wario Bike which is also stated responsible for Self-destructing. The Bunny Hood increases the speed at which you fall which may also claim responsibility.

Trivia

• The Bunny Hood in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time doesn't increase Link movement speed and jump distance, but while wearing it on Hyrule Field at Night, Stalkids appears with less frequency.
