Battle[]
Avalanche.
Though Lessaloploth is not a serious threat, they are often found with a Snow enemy that uses Ice attacks and confuses the party. Lessaloploth uses his Scorpion's Tail attack which may inflicts Poison on one character.
A Phoenix Down can be stolen from the Lessaloploth, which can come in handy, as there are no shops in the Great Glacier.
Lessaloploth is specifically programmed to never use the same attack twice in a row. It is also programmed to use an attack called Snowstorm, but due to a bug, it never actually does.
