9 (Magic)
Geckos usually inhabit mountains or grassy areas. They are very common around the Star Hill area at some times of the year.
These creatures are strictly wild. They are not too dangerous, although they can cause trouble for unwary travellers if provoked.
Attack Pattern: On the map, they wander around slowly, and are quite easy to avoid. In battle they use a variety of special attacks, including some which will poison a character or put a character to sleep.
Basic Strategies: They are fairly easy to beat, and they can poison you, so Geckos should be one of your first targets in battle. Only Sackits might take higher priority. Regular attacks work well.
Advanced Strategies: One or two timed hits will beat them, so don't waste your FP on special attacks when fighting these guys - most special attacks don't work very well anyway. When Gecko attacks, it runs up to one character, rears back it's head, and sticks out it' tongue. Press A just as a Gecko's tongue touches the character to block his attack.
