Final Fantasy / EVOLUTION OF PHOENIX. Phoenix, also called Phenix, is a summon in various games in the Final Fantasy series. Unlike many summons, Phoenix has often appeared as a story element. Its summon commonly involves reviving knocked out party members, and is associated with the element of Fire; this ability is called Flames of Rebirth. Its down feathers have the same effect, but without the element. 0:07 Final Fantasy V (1992). 0:20 Final Fantasy VI (1994). 0:32 Final Fantasy VII (1997). 0:57 Final Fantasy VIII (1999). 1:18 Final Fantasy IX (2000). 1:54 Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII (2007). 2:27 Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn (2013).
