| | #REDIRECT [[Crystal]] |
| The '''Crystals'''<ref>"''It's really weird. Sometimes I hear the guy next door. He's always mumbling about a Crystal-this and an Evil-that. Isn't a “Crystal” some kind of a shiny rock...or something? I know I've seen those somewhere!''" - Next-Door Neighbor in Monstro Town.</ref> are four enemies encountered in battle alongside the optional boss [[Culex]] in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]''. Individually named after their elemental nature, they include the '''Fire Crystal''', '''Water Crystal''', '''Wind Crystal''', and '''Earth Crystal'''. Like Culex, they are from the dimension of [[List of Implied Locations#Vanda|Vanda]] and met in a portal leading to that world found in [[Monstro Town]].
| |
| | |
| Each of the crystals has a different choice of attacks and range of stats, as well as a theme in attacks used. These differences all lead to varying levels of difficulty in battling each, as well as different appropriate battling-strategies.

| ==Crystals==
| |
| ===Earth Crystal===
| |
| [[File:Earth-crystal.gif|frame|right]]
| |
| The '''Earth Crystal''' has the highest amount of HP out of all of the four crystals, but balances out with a dismal defense of 70.
| |
| | |
| Despite being the crystal of earth, it only has two earth-based attacks, [[Boulder (move)|Boulder]] and [[Sandstorm]]. It also wields [[Storm]] and [[Water Blast]]. It finishes up with the move [[Blast]].
| |
| | |
| It is weak against Thunder-based attacks.
| |
| | |
| ===Fire Crystal===
| |
| [[File:Fire-crystal.gif|frame|right]]
| |
| True to its name, the '''Fire Crystal''' uses largely fire-based attacks, including [[Corona]], [[Flame (move)|Flame]], and [[Flame Wall]]. It rounds these attacks out with the moves [[Drain]] and [[Mega Drain]].
| |
| | |
| It is weak against Ice-based attacks. It has greater Magic Defense than the next-in-line Water Crystal. Combined with its exceptional Magic Attack, it can be considered an even more difficult opponent than even the Earth Crystal.
| |
| | |
| ===Water Crystal===
| |
| [[File:Water-crystal.gif|frame|right]] | |
| The '''Water Crystal''' is the second weakest crystal. While wielding decent Defense, its Magic Attack and Magic Defense are still lower than that of the Fire Crystal.
| |
| | |
| It uses mostly ice-based moves, namely [[Ice Rock]], [[Blizzard (move)|Blizzard]], [[Crystal]] and [[Solidify]], as well as the non-elemental [[Diamond Saw]].
| |
| | |
| Its only weakness is Fire-based attacks.
| |
| | |
| ===Wind Crystal===
| |
| [[File:Wind-crystal.gif|frame|right]]
| |
| 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 mainly electrical-based attacks, such as [[Bolt]], [[Electroshock]], [[Lightning Orb]] and [[Static E!]]. 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 Beam]] 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.

| ==Trivia==
| |
| *All four of the Crystals originally appeared in ''[[Wikipedia:Final Fantasy|Final Fantasy]]'' and featured prominently in ''[[Wikipedia:Final Fantasy IV|Final Fantasy IV]]'', from which Culex's theme music comes.
| |
| *''[[Paper Mario]]'', [[List of Paper Mario pre-release and unused content#Early iterations|which was conceived as a sequel]], has the [[Crystal Bit]]s serving much the same purpose and appearance alongside the [[Crystal King]].
