Grenade (Final Fantasy X enemy)

The Grenade is an enemy in Final Fantasy X found at Mt. Gagazet. It is a Bomb-type enemy that can Self-Destruct. Grenades are hardy and can be tough to defeat or capture for the Monster Arena.
==Stats==
==Battle==
Grenades use a physical attack, and will grow when damaged by single target attacks. After growing, they instead cast Fira, and also use it against aeons or when Provoked. After being attacked three times, a Grenade will counter with Self-Destruct, causing 600 damage to a random party member. It is one of the few enemies from which Kimahri can learn it as a Ronso Rage. Grenades will also grow when targeted by Attack Reels, but not when targeted by Self-Destruct, Doublecast, or characters afflicted with Poison or Zombie.
Grenades have a 95% resistance to Darkness and Silence; 50% resistance to Death and Petrification; and 25% resistance to Poison.
Grenades will drop armor with Fire Ward and weapons with Firestrike. In the game's INT/PAL/HD versions, they will also drop weapons with the Distill Mana ability. Weapons dropped by Grenades are slightly stronger than most weapons (they have a Damage Constant of 18, while any otherwise-identical weapon has a Damage Constant of 16); a trait shared with Bomb and Puroboros, but not found in Bomb King or any enemy outside the Bomb species.
When fighting a single Grenade with two Grats, if the player uses any Blizzard spell with Lulu, the game will glitch, and the Grenade will not grow.
===Strategy===
Grenades boast an exemplary Magic Defense stat, rendering almost all magic useless at the time they are encountered, despite a weakness to Ice. Attempting to defeat it with this method will likely allow the Grenade to Self-Destruct, as it always does after surviving three hits. Parties should use Icestrike weapons on physically strong characters, such as Auron. If the party wishes to capture Grenades for the Monster Arena, whittling down their health with this method should suffice. Only stronger characters, such as Auron, will ensure a kill in three hits during the time the party initially encounters Grenades on Mt. Gagazet.
Counterattacks do not cause a Grenade to grow. If Auron has learned Sentinel, one strategy is to equip him with a weapon that has Counterattack or Evade & Counter and have him use Sentinel on his turns. All physical attacks used by Grenades will be received by him for reduced damage, after which he will counter. Other party members should avoid attacking Grenades, since this will make them grow and start using Fira (party members can still attack other enemies in the battle).
As with Bombs, all of a Grenade's attacks are fire-elemental, making it helpless against Ifrit and party members with armor protecting against fire.
