Whirlwind in Final Fantasy XIII-2.

Whirlwind (旋風, Tsuji Kaze? or つむじ風, Tsumuji Kaze?), also known as Gust or Windstorm, is a recurring spell and ability in the Final Fantasy series. It does damage to all enemies, sometimes Wind-elemental and other times non-elemental. In some games, Whirlwind is an alternate name for Tornado.

Long-range Windstorm.

Windstorm is an ability for Yuffie in "Episode INTERmission" that creates a powerful gust of Wind Wind damage in an area around its impact zone. The ability is versatile, as it can be used in both close range (the effect manifests around Yuffie) or long range (on whatever target her weapon is thrown at), depending on the location of Yuffie's weapon. When synergized with Sonon Kusakabe, the ability is even better, and can raise a staggered enemy's damage multiplier.
