Template:Weapon The Power Bracelet is a term used to define many items in the Zelda games. They represent any object that allows Link superhuman strength, and allows him to be able to pick up or move many different heavy objects.

Appearances

The Legend of Zelda

The Power Bracelet in The Legend of Zelda, had only a few uses when compared to later games in the series. Found under an Armos statue in Death Mountain, the power bracelet in this game gave Link the strength to move certain objects that would otherwise be too heavy for him. This would usually reveal a staircase leading to an Old Man with warp points linking certain areas throughout the Overworld.

The Adventure of Link

Main article: Handy Glove

In The Adventure of Link, the power bracelet was called the Handy Glove and had a much different purpose than its use in the original Legend of Zelda. In this game, the item helped Link break through various blocks with his sword that could be found around the dungeon.

A Link to the Past

Main article: Power Glove

In A Link to the Past, the power bracelet took the form of a glove once again, only this time it is called the Power Glove. In this game, the power glove allows Link to lift heavy objects and then throw them away, often clearing obstacles.

Link's Awakening

In Link's Awakening, the power bracelet has two levels to the item now. The first level of the item can be found at Bottle Grotto. This version of the power bracelet allows Link to be able to pick up objects such as pots, skulls, rocks, etc. It can also be used to open certain doors by throwing an object at that closed door. The upgraded version of the power bracelet is found in the Face Shrine. This version of the power bracelet allows Link to be able to pick up large statues that are bigger than himself, along with really heavy objects, like the iron ball used in Eagle's Tower.

Ocarina of Time

In Ocarina of Time, Link obtains three power bracelet-like objects. They are:

Goron Bracelet

Main article: Goron Bracelet

The Goron Bracelet is a variation of the power bracelet that is obtained by young Link by Darunia in Goron City. It allows Link to pick up Bomb Flowers which is useful until obtaining the Bomb Bag.

Gauntlets

Main article: Gauntlet

Silver Gauntlets

The Silver Gauntlets are special gloves that allows adult Link to move large blocks in the game. They are found in the Spirit Temple as young Link, and can only be equipped by adult Link.

Golden Gauntlets

The Golden Gauntlets are an upgraded version of the silver gauntlets. They are found in Ganon's Castle and allows Link to lift large, black stones that block the way and then toss them away.

Oracle of Ages/Seasons

In Oracle of Ages, the power bracelet serves much of the same purpose as it did in Link's Awakening. It is found in the first dungeon, Spirit's Grave. It recieves an upgrade to the Power Glove in the eighth dungeon, Ancient Tomb.

In Oracle of Seasons, the power bracelet serves the same purpose as it did in Oracle of Ages, yet it lacks its second upgrade. It can be found in the second dungeon, Snake's Remains.

The Wind Waker

In The Wind Waker, the power bracelets are found inside Fire Mountain. Once Link obtains them, they are equipped at all times. They are needed in order for Link to gain access to the Earth Temple. In this game the power bracelets allow Link to lift heavy headstone shaped stones and other heavy objects, specifically Link the pig. They also allow him to lift some bombable rocks.

Four Swords Adventure

In Four Swords Adventures, the power bracelet can be found in certain stages where it is needed to proceed. Also, in addition to large rocks, the power bracelet also allows all the Links to pick up and throw large trees.

The Minish Cap

In The Minish Cap, a pair of power bracelets can be found in the Hyrule Town Sewers, after Link becomes Minish-sized. These bracelets allow Link to lift objects in his Minish size that could normally be picked up by normal Link.
