The Cactuar Hollow is a dungeon in Final Fantasy X-2 located in the Cactuar Nation in Bikanel.

Story[]

After the Gullwings find the ninth gatekeeper, they ask Marnela for the location of the tenth. The nine gatekeepers show them the cave and unseal it. While the Gullwings explore the cave, they fight a Sallet and a Cactuar. After defeating them, multiple Cactuars fire their needles at the defeated Sallet, making it grow into a Heavy Sallet. The Gullwings slay the empowered fiend and continue their way. They reach a passageway that is slowly being filled with sand, giving them 1 minute to reach the other side or they will be teleported back to the beginning of the passageway. They eventually reach Frailea, the tenth and final gatekeeper, and after a game where the player has to shoot Frailea until his HP reaches zero the other Cactuars combine into a stronger form, the Jumbo Cactuar. The Gullwings defeat the large Cactuar and exit the cave with Frailea.
