Ironclad (Final Fantasy X)

The Ironclad is an enemy in Final Fantasy X, created in the Species Conquest at Monster Arena after ten Iron Giant and ten Gemini fiends have been captured. The two different Gemini count as two different fiends for unlocking Ironclad. The prize for unlocking him is 60 Mana Tablets and the cost to fight him is 8,000 gil.

True to his appearance, Ironclad's attacks are all physical. He will counterattack everything with Reppageki (an attack with his sword); with a high Evasion stat this counter can easily miss. Bushinzan is a group attack with causes damage to both HP and MP; and the strongest is a jump attack against one character called Shinryudan.

While Ironclad is not immune to Armor Break, it will only work 5% of the time, so a Frag Grenade or Auron's Banishing Blade Overdrive will be more effective. If the characters have Evade of 200 or more, almost all of Ironclad's Reppageki attacks will miss.
