[[File:Forest-ffta-icon.png|Final Fantasy Tactics Advance's icon.]]'''Forest''' {{J|森|Mori}}, also called '''Woods''', is a recurring terrain and a type of location in the [[Final Fantasy series|''Final Fantasy'' series]]. [[Chocobo]]s commonly reside in [[Chocobo forest]]s. As a location, they often appear as [[dungeon]]s, but forests are much more prominent as a type of [[world map|overworld]] terrain characterized by the greater rate of [[Random encounter]]s than plain terrain types making them ideal [[Level grinding]] spots. [[Airship (term)|Airships]] often can't land in forests, meaning forests is commonly used as a way to block the player's entry to certain locations they are not meant to visit until later on in the game.

Evil Forest Swamp by Forero and Team

The Evil Forest in Final Fantasy IX.

Final Fantasy Tactics Advance's icon.Forest (森, Mori?), also called Woods, is a recurring terrain and a type of location in the Final Fantasy series. Chocobos commonly reside in Chocobo forests. As a location, they often appear as dungeons, but forests are much more prominent as a type of overworld terrain characterized by the greater rate of Random encounters than plain terrain types making them ideal Level grinding spots. Airships often can't land in forests, meaning forests is commonly used as a way to block the player's entry to certain locations they are not meant to visit until later on in the story.

In the overworld, forests usually cover characters up to the waist when they cross them, with the exception of Final Fantasy VIII, where characters leave a trail when crossing a forest, and the camera moves to an aerial view of the world map.

Appearances

Final Fantasy

Forests appear as a terrain type and are prominent. The towns of Elfheim, Onrac and Lufenia are completely surrounded by forests, which, in the case of the latter two, prevents the landing of airships nearby.

Final Fantasy II

Forests exist in the areas of Kashuan and Mysidia. A Chocobo Forest appears for the first time in the series.

Final Fantasy III

Living Woods

The Living Woods are inhabited by fairies who care for the Elder Tree.

There are few forest areas, which house Living Woods and the Chocobo Woods.

In the NES version Geomancers cast Air Blade when using Terrain in a forest, while in the DS version, they have a 50% chance of using Wind Slash, a 48% chance of using Ice Storm, and a 2% chance of using Shadowflare.

Final Fantasy IV

There are several Chocobo Forests throughout the planet, where MP-replenishing white chocobos and Fat Chocobos can be found.

The region of Troia features lush forests, which halt the player airship from landing near the town. A greater Chocobo Forest can be found north of the castle, where black chocobos can be found, which can land in forests. One must be used to access the Lodestone Cavern, located on an island filled with forest.

Final Fantasy IV -Interlude-

The Chocobo Forest were disabled, and the player can fight inside forests that can be found across the overworld map between Mt. Hobs and Fabul. There is also a small forest north of Eblan.
