Hardly a Gossip Stone at all, the [[Pirate's Charm]] is an item that [[Link]] and [[Tetra]] carry with them to communicate. It was said to be an enhanced version of a Gossip Stone, made by [[Daphnes Nohansen Hyrule]].

===Phantom Hourglass===
==''Phantom Hourglass''==
Gossip Stones in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass|Phantom Hourglass]]'' have a different function than those in previous installments. They can only be communicated with a simple sword slash. They usually appear in dungeons, typically one per floor. They will give Link the location of treasure chests for a small fee of 20 [[Rupee]]s. Link can then copy down their locations onto his [[Dungeon Map]]. Thus, they replace the [[Compass]] from other games. They are also found on [[Maze Island]], and in various other places in the overworld giving Link helpful hints.

===Spirit Tracks===
==''Spirit Tracks''==
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks|Spirit Tracks]]'', Gossip Stones act very similarly to those in ''Phantom Hourglass'', but have a slightly altered appearance. To communicate with them, Link must play the [[Song of Awakening]]. Only then will they give Link the locations of various treasure chests for a fee of 20 rupees.

===Skyward Sword===
==''Skyward Sword''==
Gossip Stones in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]]'' can be found by looking for any area where [[Link]] can see [[Blessed Butterfly|butterflies]] flying around a particular area. If Link plays his [[Goddess's Harp|harp]], a Gossip Stone will rise from the ground, and as they come up a [[Treasure]] will also pop out (i.e. Monster Claw). If Link talks to them they will give him tips like in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'', but in this game Link does not have to wear the [[Mask of Truth]]. Using different items will cause them to spin, shrink, and even fly into the sky like a rocket and explode. Don't worry, another one takes its place instantly.

===Trivia===
===Trivia===
*In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'' and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]'', if [[Link]] places a [[Bomb]] in front of a [[Gossip Stone]], the Gossip Stone will fire up into the sky like a rocket once the bomb explodes.
*In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'', ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]'', and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]]'', if [[Link]] places a bomb in front of a [[Gossip Stone]], it fires up into the sky like a rocket once the bomb explodes. In ''Skyward Sword'' the Gossip Stone will count down before launching.
*In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'', hitting a [[Gossip Stone]] with the [[Megaton Hammer]] makes it flat for a few seconds, and using any of [[Goron Link]]'s attacks in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]'' will have the same effect.
