''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 Mother, it was used to deflect PK Beam when fighting Starman Jr. 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.'' | ''A badge you can put on to gain the ability to reflect all projectiles.

''While not the most flashy of accessories, the Franklin Badge is actually incredibly useful. When wearing it, any projectiles launched your way will be reflected harmlessly off you. There is no downside, so grab this as soon as it appears. Don't get too confident, though—the bonus doesn't last long.'' | |||

The Franklin Badge first appeared as an item in ''[[Mother]]''. It was 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 can be found from a box in {{s|wikibound|Duncan's Factory}}. It was used to reflect [[wikibound:PK Beam|PK Beam γ]], normally a one hit knock-out attack, making certain fights easier. It also was an item in ''{{b|EarthBound|game}}'' and ''[[Mother 3]]'', but was used to reflect all thunder attacks, most commonly [[PK Thunder]], which made it an important item in both games. Franklin Badges in ''Brawl'' reflect any projectiles directed towards the one wearing it. | The Franklin Badge first appeared as an item in ''[[Mother]]''.
