How to Get All Empty Bottles - Zelda Ocarina of Time Remake

In this guide, we cover how to get all the Empty Bottles in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Remake. Bottles are useful items that can store several items, including Milk, Potions, Bugs, and Poes. We have covered the locations and requirements of all five Empty Bottles in order, as well as all their possible uses in the game.

The very first Bottle in the game can be obtained by visiting the Potion Shop in Hyrule Castle Town. Once inside, the Potion Shopkeeper will give you a bottle and ask you to capture the bug inside the store. He rewards you with a Red Potion and lets you keep the Empty Bottle. This serves as a tutorial, showing that bottles can capture certain creatures and store potions.

After meeting with Zelda in Hyrule Castle, visit Lon Lon Ranch. Enter the house and speak to Talon, who will be sleeping near several Cuccos. Then play the Cucco minigame, where you'll have to pick up three Super Cuccos from among all the Cuccos in the room. The Super Cuccos have a different posture.

If you manage to find the three Super Cuccos within the time limit, Talon rewards you with an Empty Bottle filled with Lon Lon Milk.

The third empty bottle can be found in Kakariko Village as Child Link. The Cucco Lady in the pen near Impa's House will ask you to find seven Cuccos and bring them back.

The Cucco locations are:

1. Near the entrance of Kakariko Village
2. In the construction site near the pen
3. Hidden inside a crate near the central square
4. On the stairs to the north of the village
5. Atop a pile of bricks near Impa's House. Pick up a Cucco to glide over and reach it, then throw both down and bring them back.
6. Beyond the fence near the Windmill and Granny's Potion Shop. Pick up a Cucco and glide over the fence from the Windmill. Then, throw both Cuccos back over the fence. Don't jump back just yet, as Cucco #7 is nearby.
7. On the hill behind the Windmill. From the last Cucco's location, go up the ladder near the Windmill to find the last Cucco. You can get a Piece of Heart if you glide over to Granny's Potion Shop rooftop (the building with a dark blue rooftop), then speak to the man on the other side of the roof.

The Cucco Lady will give you hints about the locations of the remaining Cuccos. After you've tossed all of them back into the pen, she will give you the Empty Bottle.

This Empty Bottle can't be missed, as it is required to complete the Zora region and obtain the Zora Sapphire.

First, visit the Zora Domain and complete the diving lesson by speaking to the Zora at the top of the waterfall. You must dive and collect the scales within the time limit. As a reward, the Zora instructor will give you the Silver Scale, which lets you dive deeper.

Then, head over to Lake Hylia via the tunnel at the bottom of the Zora Domain. Speak to the nearby Zora, who will tell you that there might be items scattered at the bottom of the lake. Dive nearby to find an Empty Bottle with a message inside. You must show the message to King Zora to continue the quest.

The fifth and last empty bottle can only be obtained as Adult Link and requires both Epona and the Fairy Bow.

Across Hyrule Field, you'll find fences and broken walls that glow purple and have purple lanterns nearby. If you jump over them while riding Epona, you'll summon a Big Poe. Follow it and shoot it with your Fairy Bow to defeat it. You can catch Poes inside Bottles.

You can sell Poes and Big Poes to the Poe Collector, whom you can find to the right of the entrance to Hyrule Castle Town. After selling five Big Poes, he will reward you with an Empty Bottle.
