Empty Bottle #1

Empty Bottle #1 is found on the Fishing Pond Mini-Game. To obtain it, you will need cast your pole near the bottle hiding behind the seaweed at the bottom of the pond.

After hooking it, be careful reeling it in as the fishes may try and knock it off the hook and force you to retry.

If the bottle got knocked off, it will sink in place, bringing it closer to the side you are fishing from. Try again and this time, be sure to reel while nearby fishes are looking away.

Empty Bottle #2

Empty Bottle #2 can be obtained by helping the Ghost who shows up and follows you after completing Angler's Tunnel.

First, take him to his house in Martha's Bay, just east of Toronbo Shores. After walking into the abandoned house, he will wish to be returned to his grave.

Warp to Ukuku Prairie, then head up the ladder. The ghost mentions that it wants to return to the grave with the flowers. This can be found in the far west section of the graveyard, just south of the witch's hut.

The ghost will finally find peace upon arriving at the location and will reward you with the second Empty Bottle.

Empty Bottle #3

Empty Bottle #3 can be claimed after finishing the 10th Chamber Dungeon named Heart Storage. You will be required to finish the whole dungeon while being restricted to only having 3 hearts.

For this challenge, the Blue Mail, Secret Medicine, and the other two fairy bottles will come in extremely useful.

How to Use Bottles

Trap a Fairy Inside for a Fairy Bottle

To use an Empty Bottle, simply equip one to the X or Y buttons then trap a Fairy inside! Fairies are often dropped by Mini-Bosses or found in Great Fairy Fountains.

Once a Fairy is captured (which changes the item name to Fairy Bottle), pressing the button again will release the Fairy inside that will recover some of your hearts. This can be very handy while inside dungeons and fighting bosses!

The Fairies captured inside Empty Bottles can also come out and revive you automatically if you run out of hearts in battle.

An Item Used to Hold Fairies

How to Obtain: Obtained through various quests.

New to the Switch version of Link's Awakening, Empty Bottles (or Fairy Bottles) are items used to hold Faires that you can release later on to restore hearts. A Fairy stored in a bottle will revive you automatically when you run out of hearts, much like Secret Medicine, making them very useful for staying alive.

There are a total of 3 Empty Bottles that you can find in Koholint Island.
