Anyone thirsty?
Lulu, Final Fantasy X

(Water, ウォータ?, lit. Wōta) is a Water-elemental spell, which first appeared in Final Fantasy VIII. In the games it appears in, it is often the sole ability capable of inflicting Water-elemental damage to the enemy save for the summon Leviathan.

It is called Aqua (latin for "water") in Spanish, Idro (from the greek word for "water"), Hidro in Italian, and Aqua or Wasser in German.

Final Fantasy IX

Vivi can cast Water by learning it from the N-Kai Armlet for 55 AP, costs 22 MP to cast, and has a spell power of 64. As such, it can also be used in conjunction with Steiner's Sword Magic. Water can be cast by Anemone, Axolotl, Clipper, Gigan Toad, Gizamaluke, Kraken, Lani, Quale, and Sahagin.

Final Fantasy X

Final Fantasy X includes three levels of the Water spell (Water, Watera, and Waterga), putting it on the same level as the three key elemental magic spells, Fire, Thunder, and Blizzard. Like most Black Magic, it is located in Lulu's section of the Sphere Grid. Water can be cast by Lord Ochu, Mortibody, Sin's Core, Sinspawn Geneaux, Spherimorph, and Water Flan.

Final Fantasy X-2

Water is an ability already known by the Black Mage dressphere. It can also be used if the Blue Ring accessory or Menace of the Deep garment grid are equipped.

The Dragon Scale and Water Gem items have the effect of a Water spell. Water can also be used via Yuna's Festival-Goer dressphere ability Water Geta. The spell can be cast by several enemies in the game.

Final Fantasy XII

There is only one level of Water Magick obtainable by the player and the Black Magick 2 license is required to use it. The spell can also be used via the Water Mote. However, several enemies cast Watera and Waterga liberally and the Esper Famfrit can cast Waterja during the battle against him, which inflicts Silence status. Famfrit's attacks are also Water-based.

In the International version, Water was renamed Aqua (アクア) and can be used by the Black Mage and the Red Mage. Also the item Water Mote was replaced by Aquara (Watera) Mote.

It has a range of 3 with a vertical reach of 2, a Magic Power of 34, and cannot be reflected. It can, however, be countered with Return Magic, and have MP absorbed from Absorb MP.

Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift

Water is a spell used by Sages and Bishops, like in the previous game. Sages learn it from the Battle Mace, while Bishops learn it from the Spring Staff. Unlike the last game, it takes 14 MP to use. It has a range of three, unlike standard spells that have a range of four, but to compensate, it is more powerful.

Final Fantasy: The 4 Heroes of Light

Water is a low level Black Magic spell. The spell costs 2 AP to cast and it has a spell power of 5. The spell can only be used if a Water Tome is in a character's inventory. The spell can be purchased for 500 gil in Liberte, Urbeth at night, and Spelvia. A Water Tome can also be found in a chest inside the the Guera Caverns.

A variation called Strong Water can be used when two psyched up characters cast Water during the same turn.
