Gigantuar (ジャボテンダー, Jabotendā?, lit. Juctuar), also known as Jumbo Cactuar, is a recurring boss in the Final Fantasy series ever since its debut in Final Fantasy VIII. It is an enlarged Cactuar, usually towering over the party, and as a trademark often sports a curled mustache. As the Cactuar's trademark attack is 1000 Needles, the Gigantuar uses "10000 Needles", and in games where the HP limit exceeds 9,999, it may even have "99999 Needles".
Appearances
Final Fantasy VI
The Gigantuar is a boss exclusive to the Advance and mobile versions, found in the desert south of Maranda in the World of Ruin after the player has slain 10 Cactuars. When defeated it transforms into the Cactuar magicite.
Final Fantasy VIII
The Jumbo Cactuar appears on Cactuar Island—reached via Ragnarok—visible on the overworld map and engaging the party when approached. It grants the party access to the Cactuar Guardian Force when defeated. It has a unique Renzokuken sequence for Squall's Limit Break and can flee at low health. If it flees, the party must find it again and start over.

Etymology
Gigantuar is a portmanteau of "gigantic" and "cactuar."
Its Japanese name, ジャボテンダー (Jabotendā?), is a portmanteau of the word "jumbo" (ジャンボ, janbo?) and the Japanese name for "cactuar" (サボテンダー, sabotendā?).
