Bestiary

FF2's bestiary has 128 enemies. 11 are permanently missable — they only appear in one-time dungeons or vanish after specific story events.

Unlike FF1, you can't go back for everything. The Cyclone and Castle Palamecia get destroyed. Sea enemies like Killer Fish, Sea Snake, and Buccaneer disappear after you grab the Ultima Tome. Desert encounters near the Coliseum? Gone after the same point. Check the missable list below before clearing these areas.

Field Research trophies unlock at 10%, 50%, and 100% completion. To check progress, hit Extras → Bestiary from the title screen.
