The Franklin Badge first appeared as an item in ''[[Mother]]'' (later released outside of Japan as ''EarthBound Beginnings''), in which it is given to the main protagonist, {{s|wikibound|Ninten}}, after saving his friend {{s|wikibound|Pippi}} from {{s|wikibound|PseudoZombi}}s in the {{s|wikibound|South Cemetery}}. Another one is found in a box in {{s|wikibound|Duncan's Factory}}. In ''EarthBound Beginnings'' it is used to reflect [[wikibound:PK Beam|PK Beam γ]], normally a one-hit knock-out attack, making certain fights easier. It is described as having been used by {{iw|Wikipedia|Benjamin Franklin}} during his experiments with lightning. It later appears an item in ''{{b|EarthBound|game}}'' when [[Paula]] gives it to [[Ness]] to protect him from the lightning attacks from {{s|wikibound|Carpainter}}. In ''EarthBound'' it instead reflects all thunder attacks, most commonly [[PK Thunder]]. It once again appears in ''[[Mother 3]]'', where it first appears as the Courage Badge, which when cleaned by a [[Mr. Saturn]] reveals it is actually the Franklin Badge. It serves the same purpose as in ''EarthBound'' where it reflects lightning-based attacks, and thus the Franklin Badge is a very important item in all three ''EarthBound'' games. In ''Smash'', the Franklin Badge reflects all projectiles, not just electric-based ones. | The Franklin Badge first appeared as an item in ''[[Mother]]'' (later released outside of Japan as ''EarthBound Beginnings''), in which it is given to the main protagonist, {{s|wikibound|Ninten}}, after saving his friend {{s|wikibound|Pippi}} from {{s|wikibound|PseudoZombi}}s in the {{s|wikibound|South Cemetery}}.
