Battle[]
Zolokalter's battle AI is unusual in that after being physically struck, it will use Toxic Barf on any unit on the battlefield, including its allies. This can be used to eliminate them, if the player can manipulate its victims. It will also use its Bite attack on any poisoned unit, including its allies and itself. Since Toxic Barf is certain to cause Poison and Slow, it will destroy its own party as a result.
It can be defeated with physical attacks or magic, aside from Bio attacks, which the Zolokalter absorbs. Enemy Skills such as Aqualung will destroy large groups of them.

Etymology[]
Its name is likely formed from multiple words being merged as with a number of other enemies from Final Fantasy VII. There are few obvious clues to the words it derived from, but the ター (tā?) may derive from "eater" (イーター, īta?), as also used in Whole Eater. カル (karu?) may derive from "skull" (スカル, sukaru?) and ゾ (zo?) may derive from "zombie" (ゾンビ, zonbi?) (although the enemy is not undead).
