Dissidia Final Fantasy
Flood is one of Terra's HP attacks. As a Mime, Bartz is also able to use the attack which functions identically to Terra's version. Their versions of Flood summon three bursts of water from under the opponent. Terra is able to use Flood initially, and her version costs 40 CP to equip and 180 AP to master. Bartz learns Flood at Level 19 and can equip it for 45 CP, mastering it with 180 AP.

Shantotto's Spirit Magic: Water casts Flood when she has 6,000 or more Bravery. It summons a large torrent of water surrounding the opponent.
