Enemy Intel

Zenene is an enemy in Final Fantasy VII Remake and "Episode INTERmission", one of Professor Hojo's experiments.

In the base game, it is fought in the Drum during Chapter 17, "Deliverance from Chaos", in the 2nd and 3rd Wards of the Drum. Zenene can also be fought in the Shinra Combat Simulator as part of the "vs. 3-C Soldier Candidates" challenge, and the "vs. Dynamic Duos" challenge where it is accompanied by a Hellhound. In "Episode INTERmission", Yuffie and Sonon fight a group of zenenes in the Combat Simulator Prototype when Scarlet traps the duo there in "Escape".

Stats[]

Battle[]

Zenene hobbles around nimbly, pouncing onto its targets and breathing on them. It uses magical attacks after powering up when it has ~20% health left, which may inflict Poison Poison. When powered up, it is enveloped in a green glow. Zenene halves damage from Fire Fire.

Strategy[]

Tifa's ability combos are good against it. The player can also quickly pressure it with magic and Triple Slash. It is best to keep on the move, and thus play as a faster character like Tifa or Cloud when there is a choice, though the slower characters Barret and Aerith can also do it. When the zenene jumps back it is going to pounce, so the player can move to the side of it to avoid the attack. Zenene's breath attacks are short ranged, so whenever the attack name pops up, the player can avoid it by running around the enemy. The attack where they ball up and rush from a range can be blocked.

When staggered, the player should be able to kill it before they become powered up and starts to use poisoning attacks. If the player gets poisoned, Chakra is a fast way to heal it.

Episode INTERmission[]

Yuffie being a ranged character makes it easier to stay out of the range of its pounce and poison attacks. Sonon can draw the beasts' ire toward himself with Incite. Synergized Art of War is powerful.
