The Seeker Bat is a flying enemy from Final Fantasy IX found in Fossil Roo and on Pinnacle Rocks. If a character is afflicted with Darkness by the Seeker Bat's Darkness attack, it is possible to steal Eye Drops from the enemy, allowing the player to easily cure it. Quina's LV3 Def-less and LV4 Holy work on them.
