In Link's Awakening, the shovel has a more specific name. It 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.

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

Once sent to the past at the start of the game, Link will find the shovel in the tower of Lynna Village. This 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.
