Potion
Potions (Japanese: ポーション pōshon, "potion") are common healing items that appear in most games of the Final Fantasy franchise. They first appear in the first Final Fantasy game. Most games have a few ways in which potions can be bought: buying them at certain Item Shops, opening certain treasure chests, or sometimes after defeating certain enemies. Potions have a consistent main purpose throughout the games in that they restore a certain amount of HP for a character, although the amount varies per game. Potions are usually more effective in earlier parts of the games, before the characters' maximum HP increases from leveling up and before they encounter stronger enemies.
There are several potion variations, such as Hi-Potions, X-Potions, and Mega-Potions, and all of them restore more HP than ordinary Potions. These variants are less common than regular Potions, and are usually obtained in later parts of the games.
History
Final Fantasy
In the first Final Fantasy, a Potion restores 50 HP when used (30 HP in the original Nintendo Entertainment System release and Final Fantasy Origins remake's Hard Mode). Potions cost 60 gil at Item Shops and can be sold for 30 gil. In remakes, they cost 40 gil and can be sold for 20 gil. In the original Nintendo Entertainment System version, they are called HEAL in the game and Heal Potion in the accompanying Nintendo Power guide.[1]
