The disruption field created by Timeshift Stones returns the surrounding area to the state in which it existed in the past, in addition to recalling objects and creatures native to the past. Robots and machinery, including [[Armos]], [[Beamos]], and [[Sentrobe]]s used for security measures,{{Ref|SS|1597|Fi}} are returned to a powered state. Dead organisms such as [[Technoblin]]s and the Thunder Dragon himself are also brought to life, as are plants, including [[Ancient Flower]]s and [[Deku Baba]]s. Another effect that Timeshift Stones cause is enemies like [[Ampilus]] revert to their [[Ampilus Egg|larval stage]] when in range of the stone.{{Ref|SS|2119|Fi}} | The disruption field created by Timeshift Stones returns the surrounding area to the state in which it existed in the past, in addition to recalling objects and creatures native to the past.

Everything down to the terrain is affected by the disruption field, reverting the sand into its original grassy state - or water in the case of the [[Lanayru Sand Sea]]. Various gates and doors can be opened or closed depending on which time state they are in. | Everything down to the terrain is affected by the disruption field, reverting the sand into its original grassy state - or water in the case of the [[Lanayru Sand Sea]].
