Trophy Information from Super Smash Bros. Brawl
A badge you can put on to gain the ability to reflect all projectiles. It has exactly the same effect as other reflectors in the game, like the one Fox uses. In EarthBound, it was used to counter Thunder attacks. The lightning bolt on the badge is proof of its capacity. Its importance and usefulness made a deep impression on players.
Trivia
- The Franklin Badge is named after one of The United States of America's founding fathers, Benjamin Franklin, who discovered the power of electricity.
- The badge has a background picture of the northern hemisphere on it, as well as a large picture that says EarthBound's Japanese name, Mother. However in the original EarthBound it didn't have any appearance, since Earthbound is a RPG game and most RPG games don't have sprites from each item. Instead, the item is based off the appearance of the Franklin Badge promotional item that came with the Mother 1 + 2 game that was only released in Japan.
