Navi (ナビィ, Navi) is one of Link's many partners.
Origin
Navi first appeared in Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time as Link's companion fairy. Navi serves as a guide for Link on his journey by request of the Great Deku Tree Great Deku Tree. She’ll give information on Link’s enemies and even warn him of attacks. Navi will also inform Link on his current task. After Link defeats Ganondorf, Navi leaves for unknown reasons. In Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, which takes place after the events of Ocarina of Time and Ganondorf's defeat, Link (as a child) had set off to find Navi before running into the Skull Kid and finding himself in Termina with Tatl.
In Super Smash Bros. 4
Trophy
Navi appears alongside Link as a trophy in the 3DS version.
- Adult Link (Ocarina of Time)
The children from Kokiri Forest never seem to grow into adults. Just a young boy, Link is entrusted with a quest by the Great Deku Tree. He leaves the forest and eventually finds the Master Sword in the Temple of Time. When he awakes, he is seven years in the future and an adult! 
Link was once a carefree lad living with the Kokiri in Kokiri Forest, but one day, the Great Deku Tree entrusted him with an important task and he had to leave. His quest led him to find the Master Sword, and when he took it, seven years passed in the blink of an eye. Before he knew it, Link had grown into a young man!
In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
As a taunt element
Navi appears as part of Young Link's side taunt.
Trivia
- Interestingly, Navi, along with fellow fairies Tatl and Ciela, are the only ones of Link's partners not to be Spirits in Ultimate. Although Navi appears alongside Link in a trophy in the 3DS version of Smash 4, though not mentioned, Ciela is the only fairy that has gotten a trophy.
- A fairy resembling Navi appears as part of Link's side taunt in Brawl and SSB4. It also appears alongside Link in a cutscene of The Subspace Emissary. As Link's appearance in those games is based on Twilight Princess, it is very likely that this fairy is meant to be the cursor fairy that appears in the Wii version of the game instead of Navi as she doesn't appear in Twilight Princess.
