Abadon (Final Fantasy IX)

The Abadon is an aerial insect enemy from Final Fantasy IX found inside Pandemonium.
It first appears as a boss in the "Not Alone" segment in Castle Pandemonium. Quina and Steiner are the initial fighters until Zidane joins them. It later appears as a random encounter inside Pandemonium.
==Stats==
== Battle ==
Abadon can inflict Virus on a character with its Virus Fly attack. It does not use Virus Fly in the boss fight during the "Not Alone" segment. High Wind is the only real attack to worry about, as it deals moderate physical damage to the entire party, and cannot be reduced or absorbed.
===Strategy===
It is recommended to bring plenty of Vaccines to counter Virus Fly. Eiko's Guardian Mog nullifies the effect of Virus on her.
Equipping Bug Killer along with Amarant's Kaiser Knuckles to do Wind damage makes dealing with this enemy easy. It can be defeated even faster if Quina has access to the Twister spell. Quina's LV3 Def-less works in the "Not Alone" battle. In the normal encounters, the Abadon is weak to status ailments, including the ones that defeat instantly: Death, Break, Stop, Iai Strike, Odin.
