The Flan Princesses are five bosses in the Advance and 2014 Matrix Software versions of Final Fantasy VI. They are based on the hard-to-come-by monsters of the same name in a room in Final Fantasy IV.
Stats[]
Battle[]
The Flan Princesses use Imp and Berserk on the party, forcing them to use only physical attacks, which do little damage to Flan-type monsters.
After all five are defeated, the party receives the Oborozuki, Shadow's ultimate weapon.
Strategy[]
Equipping relics like the Ribbon, the party can avoid the status ailments. Spells that hit all targets are effective, such as Grand Delta and Ultima. An alternate strategy is to equip the party with the imp equipment. The spell Banish also works.
