Enemy Skill Materia

There are a total of four Enemy Skill Materia that you can find throughout the game. You can find more information on where to find them on the Command Materia page.

Learning Enemy Spells and Attacks

Enemy Skill Materia can learn enemy attacks once those attacks are used on the character that has the Materia equipped. However, it is important to note that many enemies will not ever naturally use the attacks that you can learn during battle. That’s where Manipulate Materia comes into play.

Manipulate Materia can be used on an enemy, and if it connects, it will allow you to use that enemy's moves and attacks. Equip one of your characters with the Manipulate Materia and also equip them with a HypnoCrown if you have it in your possession and have this character use the “Manip.” command on any of the enemies, as mentioned in any of the sections below.
