Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King[edit]

Deceleratle returns after several years as an enemy-exclusive spell that can be cast by Skippers. Interestingly, a resistance tag for the spell still exists in the game's code even though enemies can only be affected by it if reflected with Bounce.
