General Information

Game Information

Chrono Trigger

Used by: Frog
Effect: Increases Masamune's critical hit rate from 23% to 50%

How to obtain:

The Hero Medal is a badge or medal worn by heroes of Guardia, or those professing to be heroes. Its origin is unknown, but it was associated with the prophecy that the great hero of Guardia would appear wearing it. Originally in Cyrus's possession, it was later carried by Frog, who, mired in depression and despair, dropped it in the Porre Cafe. Tata's wearing the medal after finding it in this locale provoked his recognition as the savior of Guardia against the Mystics, leading to his visiting King Guardia XXI and attempting to retrieve the Masamune. The Medal was later recovered by Frog, and is last seen in his possession in 600 A.D.

Chrono Cross

Used by: Pierre
Effects: Evade% +24%
Materials: Cannot be disassembled

How to obtain:

  • Termina (Another) - The first time you go to Termina, talk to Pierre and to the boy outside Zappa's house to get the key item, then give it back to Pierre.

Whether Pierre came to hold the original Hero's Medal or a different piece is unknown. His medal looks starkly different from the original, though the tech Medalsome evokes the image of the original piece. This means that canonically, the original still exists and Pierre's Hero's Medal must be a knockoff -- perhaps a cheap imitation to go with his other bogus hero equipment. This fake medal was briefly lost to a child in Termina shortly after he arrived to stay with Zappa. He used the Medal in his Tech Medalsome. Combined with the Prop Sword and Decor Shield, it unlocked his strength and ability.
