Flare is a spell type from final fantasy that is reserved for only the strongest individuals. Top level party members, top level enemies, main bosses, and secret bosses are the main users of this spell type. It's so powerful that it's been simply referred to as the "Nuke" spell before There are multiple tiers of Flare: Megaflare: used by summons and top level enemies. Mostly known to be used by Bahamut, the strongest summon in the entire Final Fantasy franchise. Although this is it's basic form Above that you have Gigaflare: A stronger version of Mega flare. Mostly used by stronger versions of Bahamut, and inter-dimensional demons and secret bosses. Above that you have Teraflare: this move is exclusive to the abso-f-------lute most powerful versions of Bahamut. Like, you need to be the strongest m----------- in the final fantasy multiverse to use this. This is universe erasing s--- here Above that you have Zettaflare: It is one quadrillion times (yes this is canon) more powerful then Megaflare, and it is a move that only Donald Duck has been able to do in all of Square Enix history

About

Zettaflare is a powerful magic spell used by Donald Duck at a pivotal point in Kingdom Hearts III. The moment gained notoriety among fans of Square Enix fans, as Donald's use of the move made him the most powerful spell caster in the Final Fantasy canon, as not even the most powerful mage in the series, Bahamut, can use a move that powerful.

Origin

In Kingdom Hearts III, the main characters of the game are fighting Terra Xehanort, a powerful villain being controlled by series antagonist Xehanort. In a desperate situation, Donald Duck unleashes "Zettaflare," a powerful spell which seems to vanquish Terra Xehanort and knocks Donald unconscious (shown below).

Spread

The moment left a lasting impression with players, particularly because Zettaflare became canonically the most powerful move in the Final Fantasy universe, and players found it humorous that such a powerful spell could only be cast by Donald Duck. An anon on 4chan put the situation into perspective, writing that the "Flare" spell is only used by top party members and bosses in the series. Above that is Megaflare, used by Bahamut in Final Fantasy as well as secret, powerful bosses. The tiers increase, though no being in the series has used Zettaflare, a move which is canonically "one quadrillion times stronger than Megaflare."

The power of the move led to humorous comparisons between powerful fictional characters and Donald Duck. Redditor Shy-senpai^[1] posted a photoshop which compared Donald to a Super Saiyan from Dragon Ball (shown below, left). Instagram user keybladememes^[2] posted a Kaiba's Defeat meme about the moment, gaining over 2,300 likes (shown below, right).

The topic has also been covered by YouTubers including TheGamersJoint (shown below, left) and joked about in channels such as TheDarkV-Creation (shown below, right).
