Concept Art of Grenade

Grenade concept artwork from Final Fantasy X.

Grenade (グレネード, Gurenēdo?; グレネイド, Gureneido?; グラネイド, Guraneido?) is a recurring enemy in the Final Fantasy series. It is a more powerful version of the Bomb that can typically be identified by its blue or gray coloration. Just like the others of the Bomb family, it typically attacks with the Self-Destruct ability, but sometimes uses abilities not found in others of the Bomb family.

Final Fantasy VI[]

Grenade-ffvi-ios

Grenade is an enemy fought at the Bomb forest and in Thamasa during the Flame Eater battle, as well as in the Soul Shrine in the Game Boy Advance and 2014 Matrix Software versions.

It also fights using the Blaze and Fireball skills, much like the Bomb. They can be a valuable source of Flame Shields when metamorphed, although it is a rare metamorph.

In the SNES, PS, and Pixel Remaster versions, if the player does not encounter the Grenade in the Bomb forest, they may permanently miss out on the Grenade Rage for Gau.
