Koroks the Kokori?

Do you think the same as me that the kokori from Oot are the koroks in Ww?

When hyrule was flooded the kokori turned into the koroks. In OoT the kokori say they can't leave the forest so when they left the must have turned into koroks.

Yea, they evolved in response to the environment change. Like the Zora evolved into the Rito people.
Plus, that Great Deku Tree in the forest santuary was originally the sprout in OoT (I believe)

^ I agree. It was just a fresh way of keeping some continuity between the games.

It's evolution, kids:

Can I just say I think it's dumb how the ZORA had to evolve and adapt. I mean they live in the freaking water!!!!

Perhaps it was because there were no fish in the Great Sea, & that was their diet (I assume)?

I wonder what ever happened to the Gerudo...... D:

& didn't the Goron become extinct/move far away (aside from 3)?

It was confirmed. :]

The Deku Tree in WW is the Deku Tree Sprout from OoT (the Deku Tree died, and after Adult Link broke the curse on the Forest Temple, the Sprout could grow on the AT).

He states the Koroks once took human shapes (the Kokiri are humanoid) and that they changed to adapt to life in the sea.
He even calls them his "beloved children" which is how the Deku Tree addresses the Kokiri.
The Kokiri are not children or Hylians. They are spirits of the Forest that are immortal and ageless that chose to take humanoid, elfin shape.

They're just spirits of the Forest.

tldr; Yes, the Koroks are Kokiri.

What if zora can only live in freashwater and not saltwater.

But in the end credit of OoT, a few Kokiri were dancing in the scene of Lon Lon Ranch. Surely they couldn't have died? Must've been one hell of a party to risk your life at...

thhe never really did say what ever happened to the Gerudo. It was an all women tribe if you don't count gannon, and link freed all there male prisoners. Maybe they just died out before the flood or they could have moved deep into the desert and avoded the flood.

As for the gorons i think most of them drowed during the flood but there is a few you see in WW who are traders.

Gorons don't drown. They can breathe underwater fine.

They are the Gorons we see in TWW. Blow at one with the Deku Leaf to mess with its hat to see more.

In Zelda theorizing there is a thread about how the gorons lived. It would be helpful if someone did some reasearch and read besides me!

Yes, the Koroks are Kokori! I really want to play me some WW now..

So all people agree here the Koroks are the Kokori so link from Ocarina of time might be who you have to save in the wind waker.

I don't fully understand the whole Zora to Rito thing.

But I've always find it exciting, the whole Koroks are the Kokori thing. There is no doubt in my mind that they are the same people.

I think they ARE the same. Think of this, Forest Haven is Kokiri Forest after the flood. Kokiri children don't die as long they are in the forest. Therefore, Koroks are the Kokiri hundreds of years after. Think about it.

Archon, I'm talking to you.

They became OPPOSITES. Zoras. Live underwater, in water. Right? After the flood, they are Rito! Opposite of water is air. ^.^
Kokiri: Were children. Became Koroks. Koroks are wood people. Kokiri was a forest. Forests have tons of wood.

See? It all makes sense! It all winds up to be perfectly logical on why they are who they are.

Yes but in ocarina of time dosen't it say the kokori are not allowed to leave the forest? Maybe that is what happens to them if they have no Sword and sheild like link did when he left.
