Battle[]
Its two Impulse attacks can hit the party for moderate damage, with the more powerful Cross Impulse only used when it has taken sufficient damage. Since Formulae often attack in groups, this damage can quickly add up.
They drop useful Hi-Potions, morph into Speed Drinks, and Yuffie has a weapon to be stolen from them: Boomerang.
Strategy[]
They should be dealt with quickly. Matra Magic and L4 Suicide are efficient spells to use. Formula needs MP for all its attacks, so Magic Hammer renders them incapable of attacking.
