Final Fantasy Wiki

Waterpolo is a boss from Final Fantasy VII fought at Under Junon during "The Stowaway Strategy". It only appears when Bottomswell uses Waterball.

Waterball will imprison one of the party members in a bubble known as a Waterpolo, rendering them immobile and draining their health rapidly over time. If all three characters become trapped in Waterpolos, the player is deemed unable to continue.

Waterpolos can be destroyed by casting offensive magic on them. However, it can be easy to target the character inside instead of the Waterpolo. This is easily avoided by using a spell with an All Materia attached, or Matra Magic E.Skill, as they will target both Bottomswell and the Waterpolo.
