The '''Bottomless pot''' is a key item in {{DQ3}} and {{DQB2}}.

 

It is necessary in order to retrieve the [[Ultimate Key]] in the former, and is a handy agricultural tool in the latter.  

The pot originates from the village of [[Persistence]], whose residents say it was stolen from the village by men from [[Edina]].  The king of Edina says that it was his grandfather who hid the pot in the castle, meaning it was stolen a long time before the events of {{Dragon Quest III}}. The pot is hidden in a puzzle chamber in the castle basement. In order to retrieve it, the {{Hero 3}} and {{Party 3}} must push three boulders onto a specific section of the floor. The difficulty is that the boulders can be pushed into unmovable positions or into water. Exiting and re-entering the chamber resets the boulder positions.

The Bottomless pot is to be used in the sea northwest of [[Persistence]] to raise the [[Shallows Shrine]]. This is hinted by the talking horse in the village. Its usage is very similar to using the [[Moonshard]] to open the [[Sea Cave]] in {{DQ2}}.

Although the island closes after exiting the shrine directly, the pot can be used over and over to raise the shrine again.  The island will not sink, however, if [[Zoom]] is used to leave it.

It can also be used to get milk from cows and defeat monsters such as [[Hell nino]]s and [[Dancing flame]]s instantly.
