Final Fantasy VIII

Tonberry’s attack is pretty weak. The primary benefit to obtaining Tonberry though is his very useful learned abilities which include Call Shop, Familiar, Sell-High and Haggle. Together, these abilities pave the way for a cheat that allows for infinite gil. Click on the link to check out the Cheats section.

Attack Name: Chef’s Knife

Attack Effect: Normal damage attack

How to obtain Tonberry: Head to the Centra Ruins and kill 20 Tonberry’s and you will be “jumped” by Tonberry King. Defeat Tonberry King to receive Tonberry as a Guardian Force. Click on the link for more information on completing the Centra side quests.
