Phantom Hourglass Power Gems
Below is a listing of all 20 Power Gems that Link finds on his quest. When Link has collected 10 Power Gems he can restore a portion of Leaf's power. In order to do so, he must take the gems to Spirit Island, which is a hidden Island located just south of Molida Island. If Link has collected all 20 of these gems, he can take them to the spring at Spirit Island to fully restore the power of Leaf. The 20 Power Gems are listed in roughly the order they become available to collect.
