Trivia
- Since Leaf Shield doesn't consume energy upon activation, switching weapons can allow it to be used for free.
- In Mega Man 2, Leaf Shield will slowly fall down off the screen if deflected. This was changed in Mega Man Maker to instead fly off toward the top corner of the screen.
- It originally could not nullify projectiles in its debut game.
