Remains of enemies that are near a Timeshift Stone will come back to life when they are activated and enemies such as the [[Ampilus]] will revert to an infant state. If enemies from the present come into the field of an active Timeshift Stone, they will disappear. They will reappear at the place they vanished at if the Timeshift Stone is later deactivated. In the past state, electrical barriers may appear, blocking Link's path, whereas spiky, metallic barriers in the present disappear. Additionally, there are fans that serve as barriers within the past, blocking [[Switch#Eyeball Switch|Eye Switches]]. The past state is also the only time when [[Ancient Flower]]s may be found. | Remains of enemies that are near a Timeshift Stone will come back to life when they are activated and enemies such as the [[Ampilus]] will revert to an infant state.

Portable Timeshift Stones called '''Timeshift Orbs''' appear within the [[Pirate Stronghold]] and [[Sky Keep]]. They serve a similar function to the normal variant, but instead can be carried and remain constantly active.<ref>{{Cite|This object is called a Timeshift Orb.

All three of these qualities fit something made of Timeshift Stones. Therefore there is a high probability, also considering the [[Ancient Robot|handiwork]] of the circuits in the Gate, that the Gate of Time is made of Timeshift Stones. If this were true, it would explain why the [[Ancient Robot]]s are mining so many Timeshift Stones: to make the Gate of Time. | ||
The [[Ocarina of Time (Item)|Ocarina of Time]] is made out of some sort of blueish material. In {{OOT}}, when certain songs are played, it can warp the user, turn night to day and day to night, make it rain and cause objects to move in time. In {{MM}} it serves the same functions and when the [[Song of Time]] is played, it will send the user back in time. Given these, it has been theorized that the Ocarina of Time is crafted from a Timeshift Stone. | The [[Ocarina of Time (Item)|Ocarina of Time]] is made out of some sort of blueish material.
