An ability or a situation that prevents the use of items. If the character's power mostly comes from his or her items, this can be a serious threat to them, even if they're high-level, and possibly one of the only ways to bring them down. See also: No-Gear Level and Mooks Ate My Equipment. In a world where superpowers come from equipment, a Power Nullifier has the same effect. |

Monster Hunter has the "stench" status, which prevents you from using items that you use on yourself. Tossing a Deodorant or stepping into another player's active Deodorant cures it. Expect to get stenched frequently when fighting Congala, who farts and throws excretement like no tomorrow. | |

Judgment: The game's superboss, Shin Amon, will try to steal Yagami's phone in the fight's early phases, making you unable to access your item menu (or pause) for the rest of the fight. You can still use items (up to 3) assigned to the D-pad shortcuts before this happens, but you can't swap these. | |

Dark Souls has the throwable "Lloyd's Talismans", which disable the use of Estus Flasks in a limited area. While computer-controlled enemies that use Estus are somewhat rare and generally don't have so much health that it makes a difference, they are almost a requirement when invading in PvP to keep your foe from just running away and chugging Estus every chance they get (though if someone deliberately sought out invaders to duel it's generally agreed they shouldn't be doing this anyway). | |

The Arenas in most games of the Tales Series prohibit item use. Equipping the Barbatos Ring in Tales of Vesperia or using a piece of equipment with the "Barbatosian" quality in Tales of Graces also prevents you from using items. They're named after the infamous Barbatos Goetia, who really doesn't like it when you use items while fighting him. Barbatos' boss fights throughout the series are essentially this. Oh you can use items if you dare, he'll just immediately toss a hard hitting spell at you in the original Destiny 2, or a specially made Mystic Arte for such an occasion in other games. |

The Wonderful 101 also restricts item usage in Kahkoo-regah. Unlike Bayonetta, there's no message if you attempt to access the item screen. You're just denied access to that section of the menu if you pause the game. And once again, the special Operation 101 contains the same restriction. | |

In Final Fantasy XII, the climb up the Pharos tower requires you to make a sacrifice before proceeding up the second section (which is five floors and one Boss Battle). One of the sacrifices you can choose is to give up your Items command. The boss fight against Exodus also has this as a static effect. | |

The Binding of Isaac: Repentance: The section of the Mines or Ashpit leading to Knife Piece 2 removes the player character's items while inside, forcing them to avoid Mother's Shadow at base stats. Since most items are passive upgrades, this overlaps with No-Gear Level, but even consumables, bombs, and activated items are removed in this sequence. | |

Mario & Luigi: In Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, the Boos in Bowser's castle can steal command blocks from the brothers during a battle. Depending on which block is stolen, the brothers can't jump, use their hammers or use their hand powers for the next turn. The same happens during the battles with Popple. The superboss of Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story, Bowser X, temporarily steals your special attacks as you use them. The superboss in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, Bowser Jr., does the same. Also, in the dream arena battles, your items are replaced with a predetermined and limited inventory, and the turn limit discourages item usage. This is inverted with Thunder Sass, who you're supposed to beat with counterattacks, and thus you can't use anything except items. If you don't want to use one, you can idle to make him attack again. |

The Legend of Zelda: In most games, there are items that cannot be used in all places. The most common example of this is not being allowed to use weapons when you're in someone's house. Many games in the series also feature 'cursed' enemies who often have blue flames or smoke (dark purple in Skyward Sword). Instead of burning Link, they will restrict the usage of his items for as long as the effect lasts. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time: The Final Boss has a downplayed version. Ganon knocks Link's Master Sword out of his hand, effectively making him unarmed. Link can still use other items like the bow, hammer, bombs and even his other sword if you managed to get it. The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask disables all items when you use a transformation mask to assume another form with bottled items being the only exception to the rule. The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker: The Gohma, Kalle Demos, Jalhalla, and Molgera rematches in Ganon's Tower take away any and all items that were not present in your inventory at the time of the initial battle. Link's bottle collection is left intact, however. The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks: Item usage as a whole is disabled during the very last fight of the Take 'Em All On! minigame. The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword: The Cursed Medal considerably increases the drop rate of money and treasures, but you can't open your Adventure Pouch to use items like your bottles or shield. The Boss Rush mode of the game disables the use of all items in your pouches except for a shield. |

For much of the lifespan of Final Fantasy XI food buffs were considered very important to have up while exping,note generally accuracy for melee and mana regen for mages and players who refused to buy and use food would find it difficult to get invited to parties. Then came the 3rd expansion, Treasures of Aht'Urgan, and its Colibri birds. These little buggers had an attack that would strip players of food buffs. That's right, they'd apparently fly right down your throat and rip the food out of your stomach. | |

During the Temple Ruins dungeon in Shadow Hearts, Yuri and Zhuzhen are forced to split off from Alice and Margarete and have their ability to use items confiscated (hopefully you've leveled Zhuzhen enough so that he's learned his healing spell). Alice and Margarete, meanwhile, have their skills sealed. Later, Yuri and Zhouzen have their skills sealed off, but don't get the ability to use items back until they get out of the dungeon. This isn't a complete case, though, since you can still use items outside of battle (though the game pretends otherwise). | |

In Super Mario RPG, Bowyer shoots arrows to disable buttons on your controller, thus preventing Mario from either attacking, casting spells or using items. Later, in the Moleville Mines, Croco will challenge you to a fight. After he loses half of his HP, he will steal all of your items, and you won't be able to use them again until you defeat him. | |

Paper Mario: During the final fight with Bowser in the first Paper Mario game, Bowser could stomp Mario and prevent him from using items, jump attacks, or hammer attacks for a couple of turns. The Spy Guy's hammer attack can do the same thing. Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door has a battle arena where random conditions must be followed to win a match. The inability to use items is one of those conditions. Note that you can still use the items and win the fight, but you won't progress to the next rank if you do. Paper Mario: Sticker Star: When Mario falls into Rustle Burrow, he's stripped of some of his inventory items. You can't use your hammer until you find it again, and Kersti is stuck in a spider web, so you can't paperize or use the Battle Spin. Both of these are regained by the end of the level, though. In Paper Mario: The Origami King, you can't use Fire or Ice Flowers against Tape during its second form. It'll turn its roll so that the projectiles pass through it. Similarly, you're not allowed to use Mushrooms to heal during the Boss Rush on Scuffle Island or the theater battles, although you're warned of this. This same restriction applies while fighting the Paper Mistake Buzzy Beetle towards the end of green streamer and the bucket-carrying Shy Guys in the Fire Vellumental Cave, and you're not informed of this beforehand. In the former case, your item will be burnt and wasted, while in the latter, Olivia tells you that you can't heal "for some reason". |

Bug Fables: When the team fights Astotheles, leader of the Desert Bandits, he would prevent them from using any items by destroying them the moment they pull it out in order to keep the fight fair. He would even free himself from any paralyzing status effect (Freeze, Numb or Sleep) just to destroy an item. Also, Mimic Spiders and Delilah of Team Slacker both can inflict the Sticky status effect that seals off item use with their attacks, with gluey bubbles in case of the former and one of the many projectiles fired from the latter's BFG. |

In Ratchet & Clank, there will be at least one level in each game (aside from the first level, obviously), where Ratchet will have to do without Clank. This can be an unexpected hindrance because at the point these levels occur, the player will be very used to using Clank's Heli-Pack/Thruster Pack boosts to get around and cross gaps, resulting in some unexpected deaths. | |

Pokémon: The moves Embargo and Magic Room for any items and Heal Block for any held healing items (since Generation V), and the ability Unnerve for held Berries. The moves Knock Off and Corrosive Gas disable the target Pokémon's held item for the rest of the battle, even if they are switched out. Several more "competitive" battle environments disallow the use of any items on your Pokémon, with the only assistance allowed being held items. This included all battles against other players until Pokémon Black and White, which introduced a "Wonder Launcher" option to include items in battle. |

Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth: The boss of the Group Date Cafe, the Merciful Clergyman, casts "vows" that the party members must obey. If you go against them, you're immediately hit with a very powerful attack. These vows restrict you from using skills, items, or physical attacks. However, they wear off after a turn or two. | |

In Metal Gear Solid, your weapons are de-activated when you enter the Nuclear Warhead Storage hangar, and being spotted in there is a guaranteed Game Over since not only can you not fight back but they lock you in and flood the place with gas if you're spotted. In Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, the Final Battle against Senator Armstrong will only let you use Jetstream Sam's sword. Not only is it the only thing capable of actually harming Armstrong, but the big guy already made quick work of Raiden's sword. No items (except for healing), no subweapons, and no other boss weapons. |

Final Fantasy: In Final Fantasy VII, one of the random effects that can be activated while you're fighting in the Golden Saucer Arena is the deactivation of your Item-command. The Very Definitely Final Dungeon in Final Fantasy VIII has restrictions on what command can be used in battle, and the restrictions can be broken by defeating the bosses in it (not too hard if you know what you're doing). The restrictions include No GF, No Magic, and No Item. For much of the lifespan of Final Fantasy XI food buffs were considered very important to have up while exping,note generally accuracy for melee and mana regen for mages and players who refused to buy and use food would find it difficult to get invited to parties. Then came the 3rd expansion, Treasures of Aht'Urgan, and its Colibri birds. These little buggers had an attack that would strip players of food buffs. That's right, they'd apparently fly right down your throat and rip the food out of your stomach. In Final Fantasy XII, the climb up the Pharos tower requires you to make a sacrifice before proceeding up the second section (which is five floors and one Boss Battle). One of the sacrifices you can choose is to give up your Items command. The boss fight against Exodus also has this as a static effect. In Final Fantasy XIV, one of the random floor effects that can occur during the special dungeons Palace of the Dead and Heaven-on-High disables items. Fortunately, the item that removes random floor effects is exempt from this. |

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time: The Final Boss has a downplayed version. Ganon knocks Link's Master Sword out of his hand, effectively making him unarmed. Link can still use other items like the bow, hammer, bombs and even his other sword if you managed to get it. | |

Team Fortress 2's Medieval Mode takes away the ranged weapons of all but three classes (Scout, Sniper, and Medic with the Flying Guillotine, Huntsman, and Crusader's Crossbow respectively) and forces everyone to fight with melee weapons. Stick grenades and car batteries are still allowed in though. As it's not a huge focus of development, this can make tremendous differences in the value of the class. For instance, it hurts the Engineer tremendously since he doesn't get any of his buildings, and his low health and subpar weapon damage turn him into a Joke Character nobody plays unless they're trolling. | |

The Impossible Quiz occasionally gives you "Skip" items that lets you bypass a question, but some questions disable Skips. It doesn't matter. You need all seven skips to complete the final question. The sequel allows you to use Skips freely again (except on the last question), but there are a few questions with a bomb that can disable the Fusestopper note an item that allows you to destroy bombs so they cannot explode and give you a Game Over, meaning you must deal with the bomb in the question. | |
