Oceanus (Final Fantasy VI)

The Oceanus, also called Latimeria or Latimeri, is an enemy in Final Fantasy VI fought in the forests near South Figaro in the World of Ruin. The Oceanus uses Magnitude 8 often, but otherwise uses only normal attacks and its special attack, Corkscrew. Thundara is highly effective against it.
A single Oceanus can pincer attack the player's party in early versions of the game. Almost all monster formations for single enemies have the pincer attacks disabled, or have a forced front, back, or side attack, but Oceanus was one of the two enemies who slipped through, resulting in a pincer attack glitch. This bug was fixed for the European Game Boy Advance release.
