Enemies
Note that all enemies and bosses in this game can also become allies to the player. Sometimes some of the enemies as seen in this list are reused for Boss Battles, but can sometimes be a bit stronger. Names in italics are names used in the PAL version.

Enemies and bosses will have a colored health bar beneath them with an orb next to it that represents its element (Fire, Water, Grass, Light and Dark). An enemy will take more damage depending on the element that is strong or weak against another element. For example: Fire is weak against Water; Water is weak against Grass; Grass is weak against Fire. But Light and Dark elements are equally weak and strong to each other.
