(Which came out at the same time as FFVIII, interestingly enough...) That means when I make my custom Suikoden MMD models, I have big plans for the Armadodo... :>
Anacondaur
Armadodo

I think the blue ones are the ones that *should* live in the Trabia region, so the ruby dragons were an automatic sign that something was wrong, because they didn't live there. (Not that Laguna and co. seemed to notice that...)
Blue Dragon (i think it's from laguna's movie)

Creeps
Death Claw

Fastitocalon-F

Iguion (Boss)
Mesmerize (the scytheicorn i mention earlier)

Slapper (so funny)

Anyway, I'll rip this selection of monsters first, if anyone ever lets me know if I need to do anything more to my rips before submitting them. (Or I guess if they don't, I can just post them to the submissions board and get chewed out for not fixing them up first. But avoiding getting chewed out was sort of the point of this thread....)
I still have the strategy guide for FFVIII (yes, I used strategy guides back then, and I feel no shame in admitting it (though in the case of FFVIII I got to Ultimecia's castle on my own, got my butt kicked, and decided to get the guide to find out what I'd been doing wrong (which turned out to be a lot))) so I'll be able to correctly name every monster when I rip it.
