They are always there, even when unseen. That's what moogles do.

I think the cactuar is well known even by normal game culture online, but I voted Chocobo. Unless it's just the many Cids, chocobo seems a safe bet.

My bad I mixed it up with something else. It was blue shells that were first introduced in 64, the second game.

Chocobos were introduced in FF2 and Moogles in FF3.

I voted Moogles just because they have more charm than Chocobos.

Chocobos for life. Several games have you really engaging with them.

Moogles don't do shit.

In seriousness, it's easily the chocobo. Unless FF13-16 gave them a major resurgence, moogles hit their peak relevance with FF6. Chocobos getting a dedicated theme song that has endured through multiple game entries is all the evidence you need.

Well, the 13 Trilogy gave us moogles with quite a bit of voice acting. Plus FF16 has a super cute moogle running the bounty board.

Look at him!

Don't get me wrong, I wish moogles were the de facto mascot over chocobos; moogles were my favorite as a kid, and are still my second-favorite recurring critters after tonberries. But chocobos have (to my knowledge, please correct me if I'm wrong) appeared with more-or-less equal prominence in every numbered entry, have a dedicated racing game under their belt, and have a recurring musical theme right up there in familiarity with the Prelude and Victory Fanfare. Sadly I don't think moogles can match that.

I say moogle but black mage is probably more recognized especially by those who haven't played the games.

It's not just about who's been in the most games, though. You have to have actually played a FF game to know who/what a moogle or a chocobo is. Black mages have been major characters, have been used in marketing, have been on the covers of numbered games, have been put into crossovers, etc.

It's possible I'm just missing some stuff but chocos and moogles don't have that factor. At least, not to the same level. There's mog and Mont Blanc, I guess. And... Boko?

Eh... The black mage doesn't seem like the stand out thing in the series though. Especially since other fantasy games have black mages. People might not necessarily associate that only with Final Fantasy

It's not the fact that he is a black mage, though, it's the cloak and sombrero and the black void of a face.
