It is used to dig up patches and grass and can only dig once per patch. Primarily, the shovel is used to uncover hidden items. In some cases, rare items and hidden passages could be dug up. It was also sometimes used for minigames, and in one case the shovel was needed to seed out a miniboss. An upgraded version called Level-2 Shovel was shown in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures|Four Swords Adventures]]'', but the only difference from the original shovel was that it chimed when Link was near hidden objects or passages. |

− | In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'', the shovel was given to [[Link]] by the ocarina boy when Link met him in the [[Dark World]].

In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|Link's Awakening]]'', a shovel could be bought from the shop at [[Koholint Island|Mabe Village]] for 200 Rupees, and it was needed to find the key for the third dungeon. The shovel was also employed in both ''Oracle'' games. In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages|Oracle of Ages]]'', the foreman at the [[Black Tower]]'s construction site gave one to Link after confusing him with a construction worker. In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons|Oracle of Seasons]]'', Holly gave one to Link so that he could clear away the snow blocking her house. |
The shovel also appeared in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures|Four Swords Adventures]]'' as a common item that could be found at certain item podiums, and it could be temporarily upgraded into a Level 2 shovel by a [[Great Fairy]]. In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass|Phantom Hourglass]]'', the shovel could be found in a room at Molida Island that could only be accessed using a [[Bomb Flower]]. | The shovel also appeared in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures|Four Swords Adventures]]'' as a common item that could be found at certain item podiums, and it could be temporarily upgraded into a Level 2 shovel by a [[Great Fairy]].

*In the original version of ''A Link to the Past'', the ocarina replaces the shovel in Link's inventory when he finds it. He can still rent a shovel for a fee when playing the digging minigame. This is rectified in [[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past & Four Swords|the GBA port]] which has more item slots so that Link keeps the shovel. | *In the original version of ''A Link to the Past'', the ocarina replaces the shovel in Link's inventory when he finds it.

Other games have selective digging through other characters: [[Dampe]] with his own shovel in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'' and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]'' and the giant pig in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]''. |
