Talk:Magic Medallion

There are medallions in FSA? I've played the entire game through and I don't remember a single one... Maybe it's Four Swords and not Four swords Adventures? Does anyone who has experienced FS know? --Guy (T 21:19, 5 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Nope, they're definitely in FSA: (apparently FS has medals of courage) --Adam 21:32, 5 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Really? I thought I would have remembered something like that... Strange.  --Guy (T 22:02, 5 May 2008 (UTC)


 * They are one-time-use items. You carry it around and use it by throwing it.--Emma 00:28, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

Name
Are these really "Spell Medallions"? If I recall the instruction booklet calls them "Magic Medallions" and I know the official guide does too. 18:59, October 1, 2010 (UTC)


 * You're right. They're Magic Medallions. Page 41 of the instruction manual says so. Move the article if you like 15:14, 1 October 2010 (EDT)

Quake Medallion
Quote from the quake medallion's description:

--> Coincidentally, this is the only Medallion without celestial origins, and is the only one Link doesn't activate upon receiving. The oddity of this Medallion could perhaps be to represent that Quake originates from the earth instead of the heavens.

....YEEEAH, no. There's a deeper reason which I'm putting on there.

In Japanese mythology, earthquakes are caused by a giant catfish. Keystones keep the fish from causing quakes.

Now how do you get the medallion? You toss bombs into a circle of stones, which has a catfish almost as big as Link inside. That catfish gives you the medallion.

Gaijin Goomba over at Game Exchange has a much more detailed explanation here.

To make a long story short, it's not meant to symbolize quakes from the earth, it has more to do with the catfish.

If you disagree with my edit, by all means, change it back, but please watch the video first.

 * Unless there's an official source from Nintendo about that, it is only a theory. So as GorMor said, it should be in the trivia section. Chuck (talk) 22:49, 12 September 2014 (UTC)
