Ultima Weapon is an enemy from Final Fantasy X-2, found in the Ruin Depths and Floors 47-49 of the Via Infinito.

Ultima Weapon is a powerful enemy, hitting hard with Judgment and Punishment. Ultima Weapon's attacks are formidable at low levels and its damage nullification ability Mighty Guard-G can make it immune to most physical and magical attacks; only specific attacks can penetrate it, such as Spare Change, Slots, Darkness, or certain captured creatures' abilities, like the Balivarha's Skewer, Aranea's Gooey End, and Nooj's Lightfall (Ultima Weapon has high resistance to Eject and Zantetsu), and this can force a party to flee if the appropriate dresspheres are not equipped. Meteor also deals 12 hits of damage to random characters, with each one deleting 1/8 (12.5%) of max HP. Against L-sized creatures, this can be fatal.
Ultima Weapon has the Blue Bullet Supernova, used when its action count is at 30 or above, with its other attacks adding to the count, and being randomly chosen. Normal attacks increase the count by five, all other actions by two. Its normal (physical) attacks in normal (non-Oversoul) mode inflict Poison status.
Attack sequence:
* 1/3 probability of Normal Attack
* 1/7 probability of Judgment
* 1/7 probability of Punishment
* 1/7 probability of Meteor
* 1/7 probability of Break
* 1/16 probability of Mighty Guard G
* 1/32 probability of White Highwind
As its Oversoul scan description indicates, Ultima Weapon's power in Oversoul comes largely from increased stats, notably Magic Defense and HP, and its range of special abilities is reduced. It loses Supernova, Mighty Guard-G, White Highwind, Break, and Meteor, and the Poison component of its normal (physical) attacks, leaving only Judgment and Punishment. It gains Dispel and Osmose in Oversoul.
Ultima Weapon's Oversoul attack pattern is mostly reactive, retaliating with attacks identical to those used on it, if attacks are one of a fairly short list (Holy, Supernova, Arcana other than Black Sky, Black Magic, and some White Magic spells), or with physical attacks for attacks not on the list. If its counterattack is reflected back to it, it will retaliate with a further physical attack.

Protect and Shell are advisable for damage reduction.

Ultima Weapon joins the party when the player completes the storyline of Monolith. Completing its storyline unlocks the Fiend portal, and winning that cup gives the player a choice to either re-recruit Ultima Weapon or recruit Omega Weapon and transform the Fiend portal into the Fiend World Cup; choosing the latter is recommended.
=== Fiend Tale ===
: ANALYSIS FAILEDFiend has no life readings!Shinra Analysis:The ultimate fiend, whose powers have been sealed since ancient times. The true Ultima Weapon... Right now, it's like an infant, not aware of its true power. I'm going to raise it, and expose the truth about the fiend world.
: ANALYSIS FAILEDFiend has no life readings!Shinra Analysis:I can hear the voice of Ultima Weapon's soul. Long ago, when the Spira and the fiend world were still connected... Two brothers fought for the crown of the fiend world. The younger brother sought to invade Spira, as a show of strength by the fiend world. To protect Spira, the elder brother went to Spira personally, and sealed the path to the fiend world. The elder brother was branded a traitor, and exiled from the fiend world.
: ANALYSIS FAILEDFiend has no life readings!Shinra Analysis:Though he had protected Spira, the elder brother was feared and hunted by the humans he saved. In his sorrow, the elder brother sealed his own power, and fell into a slumber, deep underneath Spira. The elder brother thus became legend, as the ultimate fiend named Ultima Weapon. Banished from his home, and unwelcome in Spira. That was the sad fate of Ultima Weapon... "I wish to return to my slumber." That's what Ultima Weapon is saying...

==Behind the scenes==
The Scan description is a reference to Ultima Buster from Final Fantasy VI, which was originally named "Atma".
Final Fantasy X-2 is the first Final Fantasy game with both Ultima and Omega Weapons in which Ultima Weapon is the stronger of the two. This is reversed with the recruitable versions of Ultima and Omega Weapons, as when both are recruited into the player's party, Omega Weapon will have higher stats than Ultima Weapon, assuming both are at the same levels (before dressphere, Garment Grid, accessories, and stat increases).
