Battle
It attacks to one character using Kick and Propeller, but when attacked there is a 50% chance that it will lose its propeller and drop to the ground. When it does this, its stats and attacks change: Speed and Evade drop, but its Magic increases and its Magic Defense doubles. This increment of its Magic stat it is unusable because not use magical attacks in either its two forms. It also begins using two different attacks, which are Propeller Sword and Sword Rush, which inflict a similar decent damage as its previous attacks. It is weak to Gravity in either its two forms.
Aero Combatant is treated in battle as two separate enemies, both with a different AI script. Battle always starts with the Grounded version inactive (as opposed to incapacitated). If the Aero Combatant drops down after it is attacked, the flying version is removed from battle and the grounded version becomes active, meaning it can now act and be targeted.
