[[File:CulexBattle.png|frame|left|[[Mario]], [[Princess Peach|Toadstool]], and [[Geno]] battling the Wind Crystal as well as the other crystals and [[Culex]]]]
The '''Wind Crystal''' is a boss enemy from ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]''.  The Wind Crystal is one of the four helpers of [[Culex]]. The other three crystals are the [[Fire Crystal]], the [[Water Crystal]], and the [[Earth Crystal]].  It is the weakest one of the crystals, but it has massive physical defense.  There are really just three ways to take this crystal out: [[Mario]], [[Mallow]], [[Geno]], [[Bowser]], and [[Princess Toadstool]] must either use effective spells such as [[Super Jump]](which is the most preferable attack) , [[Geno Flash]], or [[Star Rain]]; They must defeat Culex in battle (which is also helpful with taking out the other crystals); or the party member may need to use items to help take out the crystal.
The '''Wind Crystal''' is an enemy encountered in battle alongside the optional boss [[Culex]] in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]''. Like Culex and the other crystals, it is from the dimension of [[List of implied locations#Vanda|Vanda]] and met in a portal leading to that world found in [[Monstro Town]].


The Wind Crystal is the weakest of all the crystals, but has massive physical defense, making it take far longer to defeat than the others.
The Wind Crystal has many abilities.  It is mainly has electrical attacks, such as Electroshock, Static E!, and Lightning Orb.  Also, it has two attacks that inflict status effects on Mario and Co.  Petal Blast causes the entire party to transform into mushrooms, which is not helpful despite the fact that mushroom can heal itself.  Since there are five monsters, it would lead up into more damage than healing.  The wind Crystal is also armed with Light Beam, another attack that would leave the party sleeping. This is also bad due to the fact that all of the crystals's attacks will not wake up the party, and the only way they would wake up is if Culex physically damages the party.  However, the damage that Culex is capable of dealing may be strong enough to KO the party.


The Wind Crystal has mainly electrical-based attacks, such as [[Bolt (move)|Bolt]], [[Electroshock]], [[Lightning Orb]] and [[Static Electricity]]. It also has two attacks that may inflict status effects on Mario and his party. [[Petal Blast]] causes the entire party to transform into mushrooms, which prevents any party member from attacking or using an item, but heals a small amount of HP each turn.

The Wind Crystal is also armed with the [[Light Bubble]] attack, which leaves the party under the sleep status. Once defeated, the Wind Crystal will disappear like the other three crystals until the battle ends.
 
It is weak against [[Jump]]ing attacks, making it the only crystal susceptible to physical rather than special attacks.
 
In the [[Nintendo Switch]] [[Super Mario RPG (Nintendo Switch)|remake]], the Wind Crystal initially returns in the Culex boss fight where it retains its two-dimensional 16-bit appearance, offering a stark contrast to the game's revamped and updated 3D graphics. However, a post-game rematch gives it a full model, called '''Wind Crystal 3D''', as well as the other crystals and its master. In this form, defeating it causes it to use [[Nimble Force]] before shattering, giving all its allies a speed boost.
