I've used the secret path at the entrance of the Oracle section and am in the middle tower of the three. Going east from the first map to the next; just above the entrance is an Ohr. When I try to use Calypso's Great Balls of Fire against it, I get an error message, and her spell is aborted, as is Jardel's turn. The game continues, but I have to use physical to finish the fight.

It's weird, I've never had it. Do you have a screen of the error message?

does the same thing happen if you redo it (same fight)?

That's what I've just tried to do. I'd teleported back to the town. When I went back in, I went straight there and fought it, no error message. Then I realised that I needed to re-do the switches, so went off and did them, but when I came back, the Ohr hadn't regenerated, so I couldn't test it. Because there's only 3 save slots, I'd already saved over the pre-return save, so couldn't reload. So if it's a recurring thing, it obviously has to be after the switches are done.

There is no possible way that switches influence that.
So this glitch seems random...

Possibly. with only 3 save slots (ahem...) we'll never know.

Battles aren't connected to, err, anything that's non-battle. It's like Vegas, what happens in a battle, stay in a battle.
This means all battles involving the same protagonists are the same. If you get another identical one, feel free to try the same moves.
