Galypdes

The Galypdes, also known as Aquila, is an enemy in Final Fantasy VI, fought in Phoenix Cave. The rare relic, Celestriad, can be stolen from them, albeit with a rare chance, and if Ragnarok is used on them, they can be metamorphosed into Growth Eggs. Both the Celestriad and the Growth Egg are top tier relics to have.
Galypdes uses Cyclonic to put the entire party in HP Critical, and its special attack, Flap, is a powerful physical blow.
