Suikoden II [PS1] – Sauroid / Various

Media: video game: “Suikoden II″
Developer: Konami
Platform: PS1

Description:

Outside the Greenhill area, you can encounter enemies known as Sauroid(s), which appear to be green amphibians somewhere between a tadpole and a frog. They are capable of targeting the characters in your front row with either a tongue strike, or by using their long tongues to ensnare characters, swallowing them and jumping up and down to cause damage and then spitting them back out. These enemies seem to be available any time after the events of Two River up until the liberation of Greenhill (very late in the game) when different enemies replace them.

A more powerful version known as Fisheye(s) can be encountered in the area outside of Muse and seem to become available to fight after liberation of Rockaxe (also very late in the game). Apart from their colouring and strength, they are otherwise identical to the Sauroids.

Because either Sauroids or Fisheyes seem to be available throughout the entire game, just about all recruitable characters can fall prey to to them, and may include humans, an elf, kobolds (portrayed as dog-people), squirrels, a wolf, a unicorn, a gryphon, wingers (bird or bat-people), a robot, a vampire, a werewolf and octopuses.

Suikoden II [PC, PS1, PSP] – Bonaparte / Various

Media: video game: “Suikoden II”
Developer: Konami Computer Entertainment Tokyo
Platform: Computer, PlayStation 1, PlayStation Portable

Description:

Early in the game, after being granted permission to recruit party members, there is a woman in blue named Millie in Ryube village, who is looking for her lost pet named Bonaparte. Upon taking the right path of the forest north of Ryube, Bonaparte can be found, and appears to be a small six-eyed creature, though does not resemble its real-world counterpart, being dubbed a “groundhog.”

When Millie approaches Bonaparte, it will engage in battle. Bonaparte is an easy enemy with only one attack: it dives into the ground, re-emerges in a larger form and inhales a party member, chewing them a few times before spitting them out. It is possible to delay recruiting Millie, hence the fight against Bonaparte to nearly the end of the game.

Once Bonaparte is defeated, Millie is reunited with her hungry pet and regains her Groundhog Rune, an ability in which Bonaparte will use its signature ability to chomp on would-be enemies for double damage, though only once per battle.

Once the character Richmond is recruited, he can investigate the other party members. If Millie is investigated repeatedly, he will say “Y…you won’t believe this…  I saw Millie actually go ‘inside’ Bonaparte and take a nap in there!”

Suikoden II [PC, PS1, PSP] – Creeper / Various

Media: video game: “Suikoden II”
Developer: Konami Computer Entertainment Tokyo
Platform: Computer, PlayStation 1, PlayStation Portable

Description:

In the Sindar Ruins, the pitcher plant-like monsters known as Creeper can be encountered, which have the ability to inhale party members and squeeze them before spitting them out. At this point in the game, party members are assigned randomly from those already recruited, who may include humans, kobolds (portrayed as dog-men), a squirrel or a wolf. Once the boss of the Sindar Ruins is defeated, it seems they can no longer be encountered.

Later in the game, while escaping from Greenhill the first time, a palette-swapped version of the Creeper enemies, known as Melonzoo can be encountered. Apart from being stronger and having the watermelon-like stripes to its appearance, it is otherwise identical with the same inhale attack. The Melonzoo can only be fought at this time. Possible characters are again limited because there is an age restriction for party members at this point in the game, but may include humans, kobolds (dog-men), a squirrel or a wolf.
