The Pot Scorpion only appears as a special encounter at the [[Palace Gates]], where it is hiding among an array of twelve pots. To increase the chances of receiving its unique drop, the [[Mythril Stone]], Sora will need to break as many of the empty pots as possible before awakening the Pot Scorpion. The empty pots can be identified by attempting to push them; empty pots will be movable, and will drop [[munny]] and increasing Tech point awards when shattered. The final pot (excluding the Pot Scorpion itself) will award 100 Tech and has a chance to drop a Mythril Stone. The Pot Scorpion lies within the pot that cannot be moved, which should be struck once the other eleven pots are broken in order to begin the battle. | The Pot Scorpion only appears as a special encounter at the [[Palace Gates]], where it is hiding among an array of twelve pots.

The Pot Scorpion lies within the pot that cannot be moved, which should be struck once the other eleven pots are broken in order to begin the battle. It is important to position Sora so that his Keyblade does not touch any of the other pots, lest he hit the one the Pot Scorpion resides in. An efficient strategy to find the Pot Scorpion is to nudge one of the pots and, if it moves, use [[fire]] magic at close range, as this will minimize the risk of accidentally hitting the Pot Scorpion. | ||
The Pot Scorpion is invulnerable to damage until its attacks are blocked, flipping it onto its back. It can be flipped by blocking either its charge attack, telegraphed by snapping its pincers, or its stinger attack, telegraphed by it dipping said stinger inside its pot body to lace it with poison (as the stinger glows light-pink/purple and is done when at around half or below half HP). | |||
Even though it telegraphs its moves, it can immediately decide to directly attack Sora if if struck by Sora when it is not spewing poison, rattling it in place beforehand if done right. | |||
The same goes for when it is charged up, but Sora only has to stay close to it for it to melee attack him. It moves swiftly after telegraphing, so [[Guard]] should be used while it is still readying to attack; alternatively, [[Aeroga]] can be used as a persistent shield so that timing is not an issue (even though Sora will not gain any Tech Points this way). Once it is flipped on its back, there is time for Sora to land one or two Keyblade combos on it. | |||
The Pot Scorpion also launches globs of poison around the arena, both in small volleys and in one long stream that rains down across the arena. These globs will damage and stun the party if stumbled into, which can cause fatal delays reaching the Pot Scorpion in time to damage it while it is still stunned. Rattling it as aforementioned also causes it to automatically spew poison globs. | The Pot Scorpion also launches globs of poison around the arena, both in small volleys and in one long stream that rains down across the arena.

Special note is that if the in-game clock has reached its full limit, then the Pot Scorpion no longer will change its hiding spot among the pots, and will always remain in the last chosen spot throughout the save file. | |||
