Techniques

Below is the list of techniques for every Single, Double, and Triple technique in Chrono Trigger. I would suggest making a checklist by printing this out in order to know what you have learned so far, crossing out the learned ones as you go.

Before you learn the required Single technique used for a Double technique, you must first learn that required Single technique. The same applies for Double techs required for Triple techs.

Rock Locations:

Color	Location	When	Other
Black	Kajar	12000 BC	Open the water, wind, and fire books (in that order). The Black Rock is in the secret room that will open.
Gold	Denadoro Mts.	600 AD	With Frog in the lead, get hit by the Free Lancer that's throwing rocks. Frog will catch one, and it will become the Gold Rock.
Blue	Giant's Claw	600 AD	Located in Tyrano's Lair, in a chest.
White	Black Omen	12000 BC 600 AD 1000 AD
Silver	Laruba Ruins	65000000 BC	After saving Crono, talk to the Nu that offers to change the lead character's name. The Nu will just give it to you.

- You can’t use "Dark Eternal" in battle unless Marle, Lucca, or Magus has the Black Rock equipped as an accessory.
- You can’t use "Grand Dream" in battle unless Frog has the Gold Rock equipped as an accessory.
- You can’t use "Omega Flare" in battle unless Lucca, Robo, or Magus has the Blue Rock equipped as an accessory.
- You can’t use "Poyozo Dance" in battle unless Marle, Lucca, or Ayla has the White Rock equipped as an accessory.
- You can’t use "Spin Strike" in battle unless Frog, Robo, or Ayla has the Silver Rock equipped as an accessory.

Other:

- There are many many Magic Tabs that you can come across throughout the game. Using one on a party member will increase their Magic Power by one. This makes their techniques more powerful.
- Ether items restore MP. Have a lot in your inventory if you are going into a big battle, such as against Lavos.
- Crono's "Red Katana" and Frog's "Rune Blade" both have a stat increase of +4 Magic.
- The "Magic Scarf"(+2), "Magic Seal"(+5), and "Magic Ring"(+6) also raise the Magic stat.
- The "SilverStud" accessory makes the party member who has it equipped only have to use half of the required MP for any use. It does not raise or lower your attacks and techniques, it just makes the cost of using any Techniques or Magic decrease by half. Pretty nice thing to have equipped.
- The "Gold Stud" is like the SilverStud except it is more powerful. It decreases the cost of using MP to 3/4. If the Tech normally requires 20 MP to use, it would then only cost 5 MP to use if this nifty little thing is equipped on that party member. I would recommend equipping it on someone who uses up a lot of MP really quickly.
