- “Portal Device:
Fox McCloud is afforded a rare honor when he's allowed to open Sun Portals. The Staff can unlock the large doors showing an icon of the yellow sun. There aren't many of them, but they are vital to completing the game. Simply walk up to once and choose the Portal Device from the Staff menu.” - —
The Portal Opener or Portal Device is the penultimate Staff Upgrade for Krystal's Staff which Fox McCloud earns as a reward for protecting the Mother ThornTail's unhatched eggs from the EggSnatchers at ThornTail Hollow, during his expedition on Dinosaur Planet. Fox can use this spell to open magically closed metal doors throughout Dinosaur Planet.
Locations[]
- It is first used to open the Portal behind the Queen EarthWalker, which opens the King EarthWalker's Force Field to Walled City.
- Another Portal door keeps the SharpClaw Cannon at CapeClaw out of Fox's reach until he learns this upgrade.
- There is one that hides a Cheat Token Well in theOcean Force Point Temple.
- There is one at Krazoa Palace that also keeps a Krazoa Spirit podium hidden.

Early Development[]
- Originally in the game's development, the Portal Doors had a much different appearance compared to the final game and the Prima Strategy Guide reflects this by naming them as Sun Portals, which were both likely remnants from "Dinosaur Planet".
