Shadow (boss)

Template:Sideicon Template:FFVI Enemy Template:See Also Shadow is a boss in Final Fantasy VI fought in the Dragon's Neck Coliseum in the World of Ruin, if the player waited for him at the Floating Continent before jumping on to the airship. After rescuing Shadow from the Cave on the Veldt, betting the Ichigeki, found in the same location, will replace Typhon with Shadow as the player's opponent.

Battle

Shadow's level, HP, MP, and Magic Power will vary. The speed stat can also vary, but the only esper that gives a stat boost upon level up to speed are the Odin and Cactuar (GBA only) magicite. Both are found in the World of Ruin, and there is no way for Shadow to level up his Speed because Shadow leaves the party after the Floating Continent and rejoins after his battle at the coliseum. The only way his Speed stat will vary is if the player used a cheating device to gain access to these magicite in the World of Balance before Shadow leaves.

Shadow has no equipment, including having no weapon equipped and will attack Unarmed. This battle is easy, but the random factor of the coliseum might make the player's character waste turns on useless spells or abilities, which would prolong the battle more than it should. Upon his defeat, Shadow will join the party.

If Shadow's opponent is Gogo and he mimics Shadow in the coliseum, Gogo will attack himself because Shadow is classed as a party member even as an opponent.
