The Dark Flan is an enemy from Final Fantasy X. It is found in the caverns of Mt. Gagazet and in the Zanarkand Ruins. The Dark Flan will appear alone in battle and is a much larger, non-elemental, more powerful version of its cousins.

The Dark Flan has a host of attacks at its disposal. It casts Black Magic such as Demi, Bio, Drain, Osmose, and Flare. It can also heal itself using White Wind. And unlike the other flans encountered in Spira, it does not have an elemental weakness. The strategy to defeat it is to summon Bahamut and use the Impulse attack. The alternate strategy is to Silence the Dark Flan (its main weakness) and then pound away with Flare and physical attacks after using Armor Break.

It drops armor and weapons with MP+ and Magic+ abilities, not terribly useful. However, Star Curtains and White Magic spheres are and additionally this is Kimahri's best chance to learn White Wind.
