Qu's Marsh

FINAL FANTASY IX guide · Meeting Quina on the way to Gizamaluke
← All areas in this guide

Zidane and the party can visit this marsh on the Mist Continent before heading to Gizamaluke's Grotto to recruit Quina Quen. By catching a frog in the pond and offering it to Quina, you trigger a scene with Quale that leads to Quina joining the party. You can also participate in the recurring Frog Catching minigame here to earn rewards.

Tips

  • Always leave at least one male frog and one female frog (plus the Golden Frog if present) in the pond so the frog population reproduces quickly.
  • Eat enemies here with Quina's Eat command right after recruitment to start building an early Blue Magic spell repertoire, especially Frog Drop from the Gigan Toad.
