'''Puffstool''' is a monster that is quite easy to defeat, although it often lies within the dust that slows [[Minish Link]] down.  Puffstools normally have red caps, and are invincible in this state. When Link uses the [[Gust Jar]] on it, it turns gray and with a few sword slashes it should be defeated. Puffstools appear in a variety of places, like dungeons and caves, often hiding in the dust for a surprise attack. When they shake, their spores accumulate as more dust, which can be cleared with the Gust Jar.
