The '''Gust Bellows''' ({{ja|まほうのツボ|Mahō no Tsubo}}, ''Magic Jar'') is an [[item]] from the {{uv|Legend of Zelda}} series.


The '''Gust Bellows''' is a weapon from ''The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword'', and was [https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAADMUKlqB6TTBA confirmed] as a new item. Its functions are primarily similar to its ''Zelda'' appearance when held and seems to have a more realistic model this time around.
==Origin==

The Gust Bellows originated from ''The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword'' as an item found in the {{iw|zeldawiki|Lanayru Mining Facility}}. [[Link]] can use this item to create large gusts of wind to blow away various objects, including piles of sand, dust, household items, and even small enemies. It is also capable of activating propeller-shaped switches and mechanisms.

The Gust Bellows function similarly to ''Skyward Sword'' when picked up, allowing characters to blow their enemies away with extreme force similar to [[Kyogre]]'s Hydro Pump attack. When dropped, the bellows will run wild and become a hazard for everyone on the stage.
The Gust Bellows is a shooting item that fires a constant stream of non-damaging wind that [[push]]es opponents. As with other shooting items, it has a limited supply of ammo, and once it is depleted it can only be thrown. Throwing a Gust Bellows if it has ammo remaining causes it to bounce around the stage, firing bursts with random direction and timing that affect all players but the thrower.


==Origin==
While non-damaging, the Gust Bellows applies enough [[knockback]] to force opponents out of range and offstage within seconds, and since it doesn't cause [[flinch]]ing it can then keep them offstage without hope of recovering, similarly to Mario's [[F.L.U.D.D.]] As a result, it is ironically an extremely powerful item, being capable of guaranteeing multiple KOs from 0% damage with minimal risk to the user. It is often quoted by players as being [[broken]] due to its ease of use and difficulty escaping from the wind's push. However, certain characters that possess momentum canceling special moves (e.g. Villager's Lloid Rocket, Donkey Kong's Spinning Kong) can completely ignore the windboxes and subsequent knockback from the Gust Bellows whether grounded or offstage. Alternatively, characters such as Sonic can simply outrun the gust, while shielding or rolling will reduce the push effect received from the item.
The Gust Bellows originated from ''The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword'' as an item found in the Lanayru Mining Facility. Link uses the item to create large vortexes of wind to blow various objects, including piles of sand, dust, household items and enemies away. Its main use is to blow away sand, but it can turn propellors which act as switches too. Gust bellows do not affect most enemies, but they can blow away smaller ones.
 
The Gust Bellows are a highly useful item in [[Multi-Man Mode|Multi-Man Smash]] due to the [[Fighting Mii Team]] taking significantly increased knockback from all sources. A single gust is capable of pushing multiple Miis offstage, easily KOing them due to their lack of recovery moves and inability to grab ledges.

The Gust Bellows (まほうのツボ, Magic Jar) is an item from the Legend of Zelda series.

Origin[edit]

Link using the Gust Bellows in The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword.

The Gust Bellows originated from The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword as an item found in the Lanayru Mining Facility. Link can use this item to create large gusts of wind to blow away various objects, including piles of sand, dust, household items, and even small enemies. It is also capable of activating propeller-shaped switches and mechanisms.

Overview[edit]

Toon Link using the Gust Bellows in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U.

The Gust Bellows is a shooting item that fires a constant stream of non-damaging wind that pushes opponents. As with other shooting items, it has a limited supply of ammo, and once it is depleted it can only be thrown. Throwing a Gust Bellows if it has ammo remaining causes it to bounce around the stage, firing bursts with random direction and timing that affect all players but the thrower.

While non-damaging, the Gust Bellows applies enough knockback to force opponents out of range and offstage within seconds, and since it doesn't cause flinching it can then keep them offstage without hope of recovering, similarly to Mario's F.L.U.D.D. As a result, it is ironically an extremely powerful item, being capable of guaranteeing multiple KOs from 0% damage with minimal risk to the user. It is often quoted by players as being broken due to its ease of use and difficulty escaping from the wind's push. However, certain characters that possess momentum canceling special moves (e.g. Villager's Lloid Rocket, Donkey Kong's Spinning Kong) can completely ignore the windboxes and subsequent knockback from the Gust Bellows whether grounded or offstage. Alternatively, characters such as Sonic can simply outrun the gust, while shielding or rolling will reduce the push effect received from the item.

The Gust Bellows are a highly useful item in Multi-Man Smash due to the Fighting Mii Team taking significantly increased knockback from all sources. A single gust is capable of pushing multiple Miis offstage, easily KOing them due to their lack of recovery moves and inability to grab ledges.

Trophy[edit]

The Gust Bellows trophy appears in both versions. In Super Smash Bros. for Wii U it is part of the Skyward Sword Trophy Box.
