Appears in	EarthBound Beginnings EarthBound Mother 3

Pendants (Japanese: ペンダント Pendant) are equippable items in all of the EarthBound games. They are used as defensive armor in all games they are present in.

Usage

When equipped, pendants will reduce the holder's damage taken from PSI attacks. They are not exclusive to only PSI and will also protect from other element-based attacks, for instance the Flame Pendant in Mother 3 will reduce the damage from all fire-based attacks and not just PK Fire. Starting with EarthBound, they will also enhance the holder's defensive capabilities by a small amount.

Each pendant gives a character protection from different types of PSI attacks based on the element the item is named after: in EarthBound Beginnings the pendant will protect from the PSI attack of the opposite element of the pendant's name, for instance the Fire Pendant protects from PK Freeze. Starting with EarthBound it is reversed and the pendant will protect from the PSI attack that matches the item's name.
