		So there's like...3 different romaji/kanji I see for this. Hydra (ヒュドラ) - FFIII, FFIV, TAY, FFV, FFT, FFMQ, FFD, FFArtD, FFRK Hydra (ヒドラ) - FFI, FFLII, FFLIII, FFA, FFBE Ghidra (ハイドラ) - FFV, FFXIV (Hydra), FFT (Great Hydra), FFRK, FFBE, WoFF I'm assuming Ghidra there can be separate from this page if it's here, and put into its own parent page, even though it seems that the romaji is the same as Hydra's for some reason?? As for the two Hydras, I'm assuming it might be either an error on the wiki, there's actually 2 different Hydras, or they're the same (which is what I'm thinking it really is). It'd be nice to confirm this at least.

ヒュドラ Hyudora, ヒドラ Hidora, ハイドラ Haidora. The first two are valid Japanese names for the Greek beast. "Haidora" is based on the English pronunciation of the name for the Greek beast. JBed (talk) 01:10, November 3, 2016 (UTC)

		Ah, so the first two are the same thing then. Or are all 3 the same then??? @_@;;

I just had the thought that "Hidora" was the Japanese name for Hydra in D&D, but that doesn't seem to be the case (does D&D even have official Japanese katakana names?).

I think I'd include Hidora and Hyudora on the same page. Hidora just seems to be an early name, there's no overlap. Haidora, on the other hand, is intentionally different from the other two. Tactics shows this best. JBed (talk) 01:26, November 3, 2016 (UTC)

		Mmkay, so Ghidra (which is Haidora) will be split then. I'm pretty sure it's mostly called Ghidra anyways, seeing how WoFF recently calls it that (and also has Hydra too, hence me thinking about the split).
