Dragon Quest II: Luminaries of the Legendary Line

Dragon Quest III: The Seeds of Salvation

What we know as the resilience seed debuted here. However, in the Japanese version of this game (both the original and the remake), this item was known as スタミナのたね (Stamina Seed), and raised one's たいりょく tairyoku (can be translated as stamina or endurance). This is important to note as technically, in Japanese, this is a separate item from the まもりのたね mamori no tane (Protection Seed) which was first introduced in the SFC version of V. This distinction is lost in the modern localization, where both items are known as Seed of resilience.

This is the only game in the series where this "Stamina Seed" appears. Note that it is not exclusive to the original Famicom version, but appears in the remakes as well.

Dragon Quest IV: Chapters of the Chosen

The item was cut from the original NES version of this game, but it returned (in the form of まもりのたね from Dragon Quest V in Japanese versions) in the remakes.

Dragon Quest V: Hand of the Heavenly Bride

The まもりのたね mamori no tane (Protection Seed) made its first appearance in the original version of this game. Unlike the "Stamina seed" from DQIII, this item raised the status of みのまもり mi no mamori (protection) rather than たいりょく tairyoku (stamina/endurance) (which was removed), which was a new stat first added to this game. This distinction is lost in localization.

In all future games that came after this (but including remakes of I, II and IV) - excluding remakes of III - this item (the まもりのたね "Protection Seed") is what appears. The stat みのまもり (protection) is also, with a few exceptions, what appears in most subsequent games, rather than たいりょく (stamina).

Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Revelation

Dragon Quest VII: Fragments of the Forgotten Past

Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King

It raises the resilience of a single character and can be sold for 15 Gold Coins.

Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the Starry Skies
