Power Stone

Power Stone (パワーストーン) is Stone Man's Special Weapon. When used by Mega Man in Mega Man 5, three stones shoot out and spiral about. It can be helpful to take out enemies in hard to reach (or dangerous) spots, such as the Power Muscler in the second area of Wily Castle (near the boss, Circring Q9).

Power Stone is Charge Man's weakness, inflicting four units of damage against him.

In Mega Man 2: The Power Fighters, the Power Stone launches a giant stone hand that rises from the ground and moves forward a short distance in front of the user.

The Power Stone is also used by the "Bridge" in Mega Man IV.
