Appearing only in A Link to the Past, the Red Shield (大きな盾, Big Shield) is an enhanced version of Link's original shield which is capable of absorbing small fireballs. It becomes extremely helpful for Link during his quest until he finds the Mirror Shield. The Red Shield can be acquired by throwing in the Fighter's Shield into the Mysterious Pond of the Waterfall of Wishing. By answering the Great Fairy's question honestly, she will reward him with this upgraded shield. Link can also buy this shield from a shopkeeper north west of the Pyramid of Power, in the Dark World.
