The Shovel is a recurring item in The Legend of Zelda series. It is used to dig patches of soft earth. While digging, Link can find various items such as Rupees, Small Keys, Mystical Seeds, and various trading sequence items.
A Link to the Past
"Shovel
A boy wandered into the Haunted Grove and was transformed into an odd creature. In the Light World, the boy used to play a Flute. The transformed boy will give Link a Shovel if he agrees to help him."
"Link should use the Shovel to find the Flute for the boy. It's buried in the Light World Grove."
Link's Awakening
In Link's Awakening, the shovel is called the Deluxe Shovel, but is exactly the same as other shovels. It is available in the Town Tool Shop for 200 Rupees. It can be used to uncover many objects from the ground and is required to dig up the Slime Key in Pothole Field. In the Nintendo Switch remake, Link can also dig up a Warp Portal with the shovel near the Seashell Mansion. If Link digs with Marin following him, she will encourage him to dig to the center of the earth.[1]
It is one of the items that can be traded to the Secret Goriya for the Boomerang.
Oracle of Seasons
In Oracle of Seasons, Link obtains the shovel by falling into a woman's home (via chimney) during the winter. The house is located in the east, near the second dungeon.
Oracle of Ages
In Oracle of Ages, Link finds the shovel in the tower of Lynna Village in the past at the start of the game. It is given to him by a soldier. It is required to explore the city, as dirt has ruptured everywhere thanks to the on-going construction.
Four Swords Adventures
The Shovel in Four Swords Adventures is often used to reveal hidden holes leading to secret passages in the ground or reveal items. Some spots will spout Force Gems when dug into.
The first stage where the Links receive a Shovel is in the Village of the Blue Maiden, where The Leader of the Seeker's Guild gives it to them.[2]
If the Links upgrade the Shovel at a Great Fairy Fountain, it will play a sound around areas where things are hidden.[3]
Phantom Hourglass
In Phantom Hourglass, the Shovel is obtained from a chest in the Molida Island cavern. The Shovel is used to find passageways, airway vents, and to dig up various other items.

We'll use your findings to continue our investigation! Oh, yes... As thanks for your help, I'd like to give you something. During the course of our inquiry, we dug up a hidden passageway. Try digging by the house of pots in the south- eastern part of the village. You should find a path that will take you to places otherwise unreachable. You got a shovel! Dig in soft soil to find some nice surprises!" — The Leader, Four Swords Adventures.
