| The '''Turtle''' is a creature who appeared in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]''. Its name is unknown and it wasn't until ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' that it got the "title" Turtle.

| Turtle is a very old creature that seems to spend most of its time asleep,<ref>''"Mm...Mm...Yeeeaaawn! I slept quite well!"'' {{-}}Turtle (''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]'')</ref> disguising itself as a small island in the [[Great Bay]].<ref>{{cite|I was surprised when my voice turned that lonely island into a turtle...|Lulu|Majora's Mask}}</ref> Despite this, it is aware of everything that is going on in the ocean.<ref>''"Yes, [[The Indigo-Go's#Lulu|Lulu]]. It's nothing to be surprised at. Although my eyes were closed in sleep, I still see everything that occurs in this ocean...'' {{-}}Turtle (''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]'')</ref> For instance, it knew [[Link]]'s name without it being told to him.<ref>''"Why so slow? Hurry up and fire your [[hookshot]] into the palm tree on my back, [[Link]]. Heh, heh, heh. Of course I know your name. Didn't I say that all is seen by me?"'' {{-}}Turtle (''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]'')</ref> Also, Turtle is aware of Link's "[[Mask|ability]]" to change [[:Category:Link Transformations|his shape]]<ref>''"You seem to be having a bit of trouble... Are you still not used to your [[Zora]] [[Zora Link|body]]? Perhaps it would be quicker to give up."'' {{-}}Turtle (''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]'')</ref> and Link's quest to save [[Termina]]<ref>''"The open seas of [[Great Bay]] have need of your might. Quickly. Climb onto my back.'' {{-}}Turtle (''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]'')</ref>. As such, he immediately offered to bring Link to the [[Great Bay Temple]] when he was awoken by the [[New Wave Bossa Nova]]. When Link defeated the temple boss [[Gyorg]] and thus helped the third [[Four Giants|Giant]], Turtle said he would go back into his slumber after listening to [[The Indigo-Go's#Lulu|Lulu]] a bit more.<ref>''"Now I can continue resting in peace. I too must abide the laws of ancient times and again merely watch from my deep slumber. But the [[Majora's Mask (Object)|evil]] that haunts [[Termina|this land]] has not completely vanished, [[Link]]. I shall depart after enjoying [[The Indigo-Go's#Lulu|Lulu]]'s voice a bit longer. I think the [[Deity|gods]] can permit that. Hyeh, hyeh, hyeh.'' {{-}}Turtle (''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]'')</ref>

| Turtle made an appearance in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' as part of the Great Bay Stage. He functioned as an extra platform that at times disappeared under water. He could either appear with his head towards the screen (small platform) or with his head to the left (big platform). He also had his own trophy in the game.
| |
| | |
| Its trophy's description reads:
| |
| *''When [[Link]] played the [[New Wave Bossa Nova]], what masqueraded as a lone island rose out of the waters of the [[Great Bay Coast]] and revealed itself to be a giant turtle. This mighty terrapin is ancient and wise beyond belief. It sensed Link's destiny and braved the stormy seas in order to transport him to the [[Great Bay Temple]].''
