In Phantom Hourglass, there are three different types of Spirit Gems, known as Power Gems, Courage Gems, and Wisdom Gems. These gems can be handed in to the hidden island known as Spirit Island, south of Molida Island, in return for special upgraded abilities. To use these abilities, Link must equip one of the three Spirits that correspond to the power he wishes to use.
- 10 Power Gems doubles Link’s attack power and sets his sword aflame.
- 20 Power Gems quadruples Link’s attack power.
- 20 Courage Gems doubles the width of that laser.
- 20 Wisdom Gems quadruples Link’s defense.
