** ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVIIRemake'' keeps this trope: the ghosts and the Ghoul boss of the Train Graveyard take damage from potions and curing spells. The ghosts are also [[OneHitKill instantly killed]] by the resurrective spell Raise and item Phoenix Down, whereas the Ghoul just takes high damage from them.

* ''Series/OhsamaSentaiKingOhger'' Hymeno and Jeremie attempt this tactic on the immortal {{Necromancer}} Grodie after realizing that Grodie is actually isn't immortal, but is already dead and animating his own body with his powers, so they shoot him using a life-granting artifact as bullet. [[spoiler:Not only does it not work, but it brings him back to life more powerful than ever, although since he is no longer dead it finally becomes possible to kill him.]]

*** There's the [[spoiler:Zombie President]], which transforms into a zombie after a few hits. After it transforms, it can be killed by a single Phoenix Down. [[LuckBasedMission The success rate, however, is quite low, so it actually takes a relatively large number of Phoenix Downs to kill him]]. His human form also allows you to draw Cure from him, strongly nudging you towards killing him with healing magic.

*** This trope is the basis for a game-breaking PeninsulaOfPowerLeveling, where you can farm Dustia, an undead rare monster far beyond your combat level, right at the start of the game by repeatedly spawning it and throwing a Phoenix Down at it for an instant kill. This allows a player to level up Vaan to level 40+ in an absurdly short stint and in turn raises all of your eventual allies levels through LeakedExperience.
