Pterya

Learn how to defeat Pterya, the second Aeon summoned by Isaaru in Final Fantasy X HD Remaster. Get tips on weaknesses, attacks, and strategies to win.

Stats / Weaknesses:

• HP: 12,000
• Overkill HP: 2,550
• AP: 0
• Weaknesses: None
• Resistances: None

Phases:

1. Pterya uses her normal attack and Sonic Wings. Sonic Wings can sometimes delay your turn, and there's nothing you can do to prevent this, so just accept it and prepare for your next action.
2. When Pterya's Overdrive gauge is full, she will unleash Energy Ray. Make sure to use the Shield command when you anticipate this attack to mitigate the damage.

Strategy:

• If your Bahamut is still in good shape from the previous battle, you can use him again. Otherwise, Ixion, Ifrit, and Shiva are solid choices for this fight.
• Pterya doesn't have any elemental affiliations, which means you won't accidentally heal her by using the wrong element.
• The advantage of using an elemental Aeon yourself is that you can use their specific element to heal them. For example, if you use Shiva, you can heal her with Blizzara.
