The Rainbow Shell appears in ''[[Chrono Cross]]'' in the form of several fragments, suggesting that in the previous years, the Rainbow Shell was indeed stolen from the [[Kingdom of Guardia]] and disseminated across the world, eventually arriving in [[El Nido]]. These Rainbow fragments are the highest weapons and armor grade material available, affording items of legendary quality. However, use is limited and probably confined to [[Serge]]'s party, as the forging of such items requires the work of [[Zappa]] (and his dimensional counterpart working with him!) as well as the integration of shiny items imbued with elemental power and resulting from the use of [[Element#Summons|Summons]]. | The Rainbow Shell appears in ''[[Chrono Cross]]'' in the form of several fragments (19 in total), suggesting that in the previous years, the Rainbow Shell was indeed stolen from the [[Kingdom of Guardia]] and disseminated across the world, eventually arriving in [[El Nido]].

===Rainbow Shell locations (Chrono Cross)=== | |||
There are 19 Rainbow Shells which can be found; as well as 2 of which can be found by disassembling the [[Spectral Glove]] and the [[Betta Carotene]] weapons (both of which are found in [[Terra Tower]] near the end of the game for a total of 21 Rainbow Shells. The Rainbow Shells that can be found are listed below. | |||
====Found in chests==== | |||
*A Rainbow Shell can be found in a chest on the third floor of [[Chronopolis]]. | |||
*Two separate Rainbow Shells are found in chests in [[El Nido Triangle]] ([[Another World]]). Note that you must first have finished [[Chronopolis]] to access this area. | |||
*Three separate Rainbow Shells can be found in [[Terra Tower]]. | |||
====Enemy Drops==== | |||
*[[WightKnight]] (Rare drop) | |||
====Enemy Steals==== | |||
*[[Dark Serge]] (Rare steal) | |||
*[[PolisPolice]] (Rare steal) | |||
*[[Criosphinx]] (Rare steal) | |||
====Found elsewhere==== | |||
*After finishing the mandatory events in [[Guldove]] (Another World), return to Arni and talk with the [[Poet]] (who works as a waitress) at the cafe. Use the Astral Amulet at [[Opassa Beach]] to enter Home World again, and visit the Arni cafe there. Talk to the Poet here to receive a [[Book of Poems]] to show the Poet in the other world. Get back to Arni [AW] and show the book to her, and she will give the party a Rainbow Shell. | |||
*A Rainbow Shell can be won as the top prize (10000 points) from the Casino compass roulette spinner game in the [[S.S. Zelbess]]'s casino [AW]. Note this Rainbow Shell is only available in a first playthrough and becomes unavailable on [[New Game +]]. It might initially seem too difficult, but there is a trick to winning. Pause the game until the spinner's tip falls in between the south and west markers; unpause and quickly stop the spinner to hit north each time. Do this until you have received 10000 points. | |||
[[File:Shellfish_Location_(Chrono_Cross).jpg|thumbnail|left|One of the Rainbow Shell locations in Chrono Cross, though it cannot be acquired when the shopkeeper is present]] | |||
*If players search around the merchant's cart in [[Arni]] ([[Another World]] (the same area that the [[Shellfish]] [[Frame]] can be found in [[Arni]] ([[Home World]])), players can find a Rainbow Shell. Unfortunately, the shopkeeper won't let the party take it, but players can receive it a bit later in the game after the events of [[Dead Sea]] as the town people of Arni are hiding at the chief [[Gonji]]'s house. | |||
*At [[Termina]]'s bridge in [[Another World]], there's a viper churro salesman. When you visit this area, he hasn't set up his shop; but after the Viper Manor events, he'll want some feedback on his wares' price. Set the bar lower to about the 60-50g range. Later in the game, after events at the [[Tower of Geddon]], he'll give you a Rainbow Shell for free. | |||
*At [[Earth Dragon Isle]] in [[Home World]], after you jump into the quicksand pit and leave, talk with the foreman once again to be given a Rainbow Shell. | |||
*After defeating [[Dark Serge]] in [[Fort Dragonia]] ([[Home World]]), revisit [[Water Dragon Isle]] in [[Another World]] and talk to the same man who gave you the [[Sturdy Ribs]] key item. Note you must have already gotten the Sturdy Ribs to receive this Rainbow Shell. | |||
*After obtaining either the [[Chrono Cross (Item)]] or the [[Mastermune]], find the bedridden [[Kid]] at [[Hermit's Hideaway]] ([[Another World]]) and try to talk to her with these items in your posession to be sent back in time to her [[Lucca's House|orphanage]]. In the first room, rescue the kid behind the clock and talk to him again to receive this gift. | |||
*In the same [[Lucca's House|orphanage]], go to the second floor, right-most room, and defeat the. Search under the bed and a girl will run out who will give you a Rainbow Shell. | |||
*After finishing the Kid's flashback sequence in the [[Lucca's House|orphanage]]; [[Radius]] will tell Kid that [[Luccia]] is waiting for her in her research chamber in [[Viper Manor (Chrono Cross)|Viper Manor]]. Talk to Luccia as Radius says to do, and after a story sequence, Kid will receive a Rainbow Shell. | |||
