When do i get riku in ffx

She has overcome her fear of thunder by camping out in the Thunder Plains for a week. She and Brother have fallen out with Cid and founded the Gullwings , an Al Bhed sphere hunting group based on their new airship, the Celsius , with the help of Brother's friends, Buddy and Shinra.

A young woman named Paine soon joins them. Gagazet displaying an imprisoned man resembling Tidus. Rikku invites Yuna to accompany her to Kimahri to learn more about the sphere, but Wakka says Yuna is too busy with visitors. Rikku argues that Yuna should embrace her new lease on life, and after Yuna decides to journey again, Rikku reveals she brought new clothes for her to go "incognito.

Rikku during the " real Emotion " concert. The Gullwings gain a rivalry with the Leblanc Syndicate , another sphere hunting group led by Leblanc. Rikku and Paine crash the show while Yuna dons a moogle costume to keep a low profile. Rikku and Paine chase Leblanc out to the docks, and Yuna joins the fray and reclaims her Garment Grid. The Gullwings explore the recently discovered Floating Ruins at the peak of Mt. Gagazet and claim the treasure sphere that contains images of Zanarkand. At the Zanarkand Ruins, they find half a sphere.

Gippal, a ladies' man and an old friend of Rikku's, embarrasses her with a crack about the two of them having "made quite the couple. The Gullwings seize the sphere whose footage displays the mysterious man who resembles Tidus standing before a large weapon, mentioning someone named Lenne. They return the awesome sphere to either the Youth League or New Yevon and learn either from Nooj or Baralai that the colossal weapon is called Vegnagun.

Leblanc broke into the airship and stole the Gullwings' broken sphere from the Zanarkand Ruins, and in Leblanc's headquarters, Chateau Leblanc , the girls discover Leblanc already had the other half and stole their half to make it whole. After watching the restored sphere, they find out Vegnagun lies hidden beneath Bevelle.

Forming a truce with the Leblanc Syndicate, the sphere hunters enter the secret passage under Bevelle formed after the fayth's disappearance and find an underground complex filled with machina. When the girls reach Vegnagun's lair, they face a hostile Bahamut and are forced to fight it. Vegnagun is gone, and a large hole is left in its place. Fiends pour out of the temples, and Nooj, Baralai, and Gippal go missing.

After defeating a possessed Ixion in Djose Temple , its surprise death blow attack sends Yuna falling down the hole in the former Chamber of the Fayth and into the Farplane. Rikku, Paine, and the others soon hear from her when she emerges in the Bevelle Underground. After learning about Shuyin and Lenne from Maechen after Yuna's Words concert, Rikku pities Shuyin, as two years ago, she, too, went to great lengths to try and save Yuna from a tragic fate.

Knowing the holes in the temples lead to the Farplane, Yuna plans to talk to Shuyin to tell him how Lenne felt. Rikku feels that people are always leaving her behind, but Yuna thanks her for "kidnapping" her and letting her join the Gullwings. The girls descend into the depths of the Farplane and defeat Shuyin and Vegnagun.

Lenne's spirit puts Shuyin's hatred to rest. After Yuna and Tidus reunite on the Besaid shore, everyone returns to Besaid Village for a celebration. Rikku talks with Tidus and notes he hasn't changed a bit before introducing him to Paine. When Tidus's concentration begins to falter mid-conversation, and he begins making glances for Yuna, who is still busy at the temple, Rikku takes back her claim and says Tidus has changed. She notes that although he looks the same, he is not the same lighthearted Tidus he was two years ago.

Look, I know I can't just sit around and do nothing. I can't stay still in one place. I have to keep busy. Not like you, Yunie!

Over the next three months, the Gullwings have gone their separate ways. Each girl receives a letter that calls the trio back together at Luca to explore the recently discovered Iutycyr Tower. Rikku says they can fly to the top, but Paine thinks they should obey the letter and climb the tower. As they explore the ruins, the girls discuss what they had been doing since separating.

Rikku has continued to salvage machina and works on missions and relays their other friends' status around Spira. She is at constant odds with Yuna, claiming Yuna doesn't want to see her anymore and questions why she stays on Besaid with Tidus instead of doing something exciting. Rikku doesn't know what she wants to do with her life and envies Yuna for settling down, something Rikku feels she's unable to do.

She says Yuna is wasting her life away, but Yuna says Rikku is only fooling herself by keeping busy. Paine breaks them up, but Rikku claims that Paine doesn't care about others, and Yuna says that Rikku cares about others too much.

Paine questions the point of reuniting if they are only going to fight. Paine reveals she sent the letters because she felt something was missing as she traveled around Spira alone after they split up. She had made up the part about something worth seeing at the top of the tower but had wanted them to have another adventure like they did as the Gullwings.

Yuna resolves to keep going regardless, but Rikku wonders what's going to become of them afterward. The girls learn that they have changed and fear growing further apart as long as they're together.

Yuna believes they had gotten along before only because they had to work together. Reaching the top, the group finds only a broken-down machina. Rikku expresses her disappointment, but Paine claims to see something. They realize they had become different people during their time apart. They decide to go their separate ways but always to cherish the memories of their time together.

With their friendship renewed, the machina springs to life, and their adventures continue. Rikku is a playable party member in Final Fantasy X , who functions similar to both a Thief and a Chemist. She uses claws for weapons, and targes as armor. Her default abilities are Steal and Use. Her Sphere Grid color is green. Her Overdrive is Mix , which can combine items to many possible effects , potentially stronger than equivalent spells.

Her Celestial Weapon is Godhand , which is unique due to its Gillionaire ability which doubles gil earned. Rikku returns as a party member in Final Fantasy X Before and during battle , Rikku can change job class by changing dresspheres, with her default sphere being Thief.

As a Trainer , her pet is a monkey called Ghiki. Rikku specializes in elemental and physical attacks and magic. Rikku is fought as a possessed boss in the Den of Woe. Rikku can be used in blitzball during chapter 5. Rikku's Japanese voice actor sung the vocal versions of the themes Marika Matsumoto.

Rikku has appeared in the following games in the Final Fantasy series :. Monty had stated Rikku would be going through multiple dressphere changes in her battle against her main enemy, Ayane. Rikku tries to spherechange during Dead Fantasy II , but is interrupted. She mostly fights Ayane while being aided by Kairi. Rikku eventually knocks Ayane to one of the conjure portals that Rinoa had created.

In both previews of Dead Fantasy VI , Rikku and Ayane clash before she spherechanges multiple times in an underground cavern and its hidden laboratory. When Rikku mixes items together she uses both her hands, as expected, but doesn't it seem like her gauntlet and shield would get in the way?

Some of the gauntlets look like her entire hand is covered, so how does she do it? True, it's not like all her gauntlets completely render her right hand useless except to deal blows, but even then, she must be pretty experienced to mix items while being burdened by weapons. However she manages to mix items during battle is left for the imagination, and quite frankly does it really matter?

Rikku may be young, but apparently she is an expert in machina, thievery, and some type of chemistry. All this at the age of Can give this girl a round of applause? Seriously though, she must have started learning all this at a pretty young age. Children definitely pick up a lot as they grow and we can't leave out those special prodigy cases.

Still, it seems a little wild that Rikku knows everything she knows at such a young age. Either she didn't have a life growing up , or she's making it all up on the spot. Her abilities and method of mixing can be overlooked or even explained, but not so much her pockets. This is just pure magic , and sure, this could be said of every character but since Rikku is the master mixer and thief it's important to bring this up. Perhaps if she had baggy pants or just more clothes in general, but look at those shorts.

Think there are 99 potions somewhere in there? It might be easier to assume since dress-spheres exists, that there are magic pockets in everyone's clothes. Now we can't be too harsh on Rikku for having a phobia of lightening since the reason for her fear is a solid reason. However, it doesn't make sense that this lightning scaredy-cat still carries lighting gems and marbles then physically throws them at enemies.

It would have been interesting if she was the only one who couldn't carry these items, but then, of course, she wouldn't be able to mix them. It makes sense for the sake of the game, but not so much for her character. Or, perhaps this means she is constantly leaving in fear, like when a spider goes missing in an arachnophobic's room. So, there is this weird, almost-but-not-quite love triangle that exists in Final Fantasy X.

It's constantly hinted that although Tidus and Yuna are obviously into each other, he also has a little thing for Rikku. Don't have an account? Sign up for free! What do you need help on? Cancel X.
