Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth has many callbacks to the original game that go deeper than the recreation of the original FF7. In Final Fantasy 7, players were able to stumble across a unique enemy by the name of Test 0. This enemy couldn't attack and just stood there during combat, crying out when getting attacked.
Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth has brought Test 0 back, but this time on purpose. The creature's assess screen says that the oversight of a Shinra Developer let this creature out. This, of course, is poking fun at the developer who left Test 0 creature in the original game. For those wanting to find this legendary creature, here's where to look.
How to Transmute Every Item in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth (All FF7 Craftable Items)
Every craftable item in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth has its uses, from restoring HP or MP to curing detrimental status effects like Toad and Poison.
Where To Find Test 0
To find Test 0, players will first need to progress Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth to Chapter 8. In this chapter, Cloud and the party will be sent to the Dustbowl below the Gold Saucer. In the eastern section of town will be a point of interest with the name Beast Battleground. Head towards the icon under the debris and down the large hole to find the Beast Battleground. Here, players can select a single character and fight beasts for the enjoyment of onlookers and a reward.
To face Type 0, players will need to complete the first two challenges. The third challenge will be "Sylkis Cup Final Round: Unknown Error," another funny nod toward the initial incident surrounding this creature. After choosing a fighter, players come face to face with Test 0, who at first will just stand there and let itself be attacked.

How To Defeat Test 0
Weaknesses | Fire |
Immunities | Stone, Morph, Proportional Damage |
After a few seconds of standing still and imitating the original Test 0, this one will spring to life and begin attacking the player. To capitalize on its weakness, be sure to bring a powered-up Fire Materia. Test 0 is a fast-moving opponent and will charge around the battlefield, knocking the player over should they make contact, making ranged attacks your best bet.
Charge up ATB and focus on using fire magic to pressure and knock down the enemy. Towards the end of its HP, it will lie down and play dead, indicating the best time to go all out and pressure it again before finishing it off. The Beast Battleground is the only way to face this creature, but its inclusion is one of the better Easter eggs for returning fans who know the secret.
