    Dancing Chocobo Which Summons would you like to see again in future FFs?

    What it says on the tin but to make this a little more streamlined, assume that series standbys like Ifrit, Shiva, Odin, Leviathan, and Bahamut will be present and accounted for, I'm more interested in unique summons or inconsistent ones.

    You know, I oddly miss Choco/Mog from VII.

    Ramuh or Quezalcoatl, although the do kind of nullify each other.

    Ramuh is awesome because he always has a wise-man personality. But Quezalcoatl is a beast, which I think most summoned monsters really should be.

    Alexander as well. More Alexander please!

    I would like to see either Bahamut go back to being the Ultimate/Penultimate summon or even go the FF7 route of having multiple forms. Back in the olden-days he was typically the strongest, and it seems that every time they make a game they want to show how powerful the ultimate summons are by making Bahamut relatively weaker.

    I also thought the design of Anima was relatively interesting. Kind of the idea that the summon is so powerful it has to be contained and you are only using a small part.Which is how it should be imo, the summoned monster is a lot stronger than you and is only lending you it's power.

    Cactuar.

    I also like Valefor, she could be a nice Wind elemental summon.

    Maduin/Madeen (they are the same summon) is another one that needs to come back.

    Alexander is fun, he blows stuff up with holy might.

    Carbuncle because it's adorable.

    I'd also like to see some of the XII Espers as standard summons. They had an excellent backstory, and many of them had brilliant designs.

    Golem has definitely been left behind.

    I would also like to see the Lich summon from FFT again.

    I really, really want Alexander. I support all calls for him to return. I love the holy element!

    Any other summons? Hmm...

    - Cerberus. I am surprised that it's very rare
    - Diabolos. Oh come on! A black lamp! It's asking to be a sidequest
    - Choco/Mog or the fat Chocobo. I'd love to see them again.

    Can't think of any others. I really want Diabolos and Alexander back though.

    Alexander. Love that guy. Also Siren, Hades, and Carbuncle. Fenrir seems pretty underrated as well; what's not to like about a summonable wolf?

    Forgot about Carbuncle. Really want to see Carbuncle. I love that cute little guy. Wish it did more than just "reflect" though. Not the most useful summon.

    I agree w/ these two and I'll add Phoenix and Moomba to them as well. XD

    Not really interested in the unique ones, I'd like for the classics and a few other repeats some have mentioned like Alexander and Carbuncle to keep showing up. Part of that FF charm was seeing your favorite older summons in new form and this is another one of the categories where I really wish Square would just stop trying new things.

    You know what? We need to be able to summon Grendal.

    Hell, why not Ekindu? We already have had Gil as a summon.
