“ | I am no pet, I am an accomplished swordsman, green as I may appear. | „ |
~ Frog |
Summary
Frog is a knight from the Middle Ages in Chrono Trigger. His real name is Glenn. He was presumably a squire under Cyrus, a knight in service of Guardia's royal family. Following Cyrus' death at the hands of Magus, Glenn was transformed into an anthropomorphic frog.
Frog is met by the party in his native era of 600 AD, and will become a temporary party member when first encountered. Once this quest ends, he will not reappear until a few chapters later, making him the fourth officially recruited party member.

-
Although the Jetbike is used in the future for the first time, in the image, Crono is riding with Ayla. This could be easily explained as Crono goes back to the future and races against Johnny again.
- Dactyl: Dactyls are a form of transport in the Prehistory era of Chrono Trigger. They are winged reptiles that can be ridden. The chief of Laruba Village keeps the secret to riding Dactyls. When Ayla prepares to assault Tyranno Lair, she uses Dactyls to reach the mountaintop keep. Crono is able to use dactyls freely in Prehistory after defeating the Tyranno Lair. In the game, dactyls function like the Wings of Time (obtained much later) by allowing Crono to fly around the world and traverse oceans, mountains, and other barriers they could not cross on foot.
- Epoch: The Epoch can access any of the key time eras in Chrono Trigger. The party initially seeks it after being sealed out of the Antiquity time period by Schala, following the advice of Gaspar. It does not rely on pre-existing Gates to operate. Once aboard the Epoch, Crono can access the Time Gauge. This gauge dominates the console of the Epoch and allows the pilot to select a destination time period Era. The Epoch is theoretically able to travel anywhere in time Era, the areas of note that the party usually travel to with it are Prehistory (65,000,000 BC), the Antiquity (12,000 BC), the Middle Ages (600 AD), the Present (1000 AD), the Apocalypse (1999 AD), the Future (2300 AD), and even the End of Time. At first, it operates the same way that the Gates do, depositing the travelers at the same physical location in different eras in time. This limits its use as a spatial transport. As shown in a cutscene, the Epoch possesses engines that cause it to hover in mid-air. The ship creates a time distortion directly in front of it, and the massive rockets at the rear of the ship propel it into the distortion. This has the effect of propelling the ship and its passengers forward, although they do not move in space at all. When the Epoch arrives at its destination in time, the lift engines shut down, lowering the Epoch to the ground in the same physical location. At a certain point in their adventure, the party loses the Epoch to Dalton. He modifies the ship with technology aboard the Blackbird, giving it the ability to fly. After he is defeated, the party regains use of the now flight-enabled Epoch. Using it, the time travelers can access any era or location in any point in time, which is necessary for certain side quests as well as reaching the Black Omen at any point in history.
Intelligence: Genius in combat (Able to come up with various sword techniques on the fly without any real training. Frog is a better sword fighter then Cyrus, the "Hero" Knight of Guardia. Defeated a trained swordsman, Slash, in combat)
Standard Tactics: Frog’s style of fighting is mixed with sword fighting and his magic element, with equipment he uses to defend from various physical attacks and magical spells. Frog is naturally better at fighting with a team so he normally will summon his friends across time to help him in combat and do various team attacks. If the enemy proves very powerful he might use the Epoch to ram it.
Weaknesses: As his element is water he has an innate weakness to the fire element. Though this is mitigated by various armors and headgears.
Notable Attacks/Techniques:
*Sword Slash: Frog runs up to the enemy striking them fiercely with his katana.
- Critical Hit: Frog jumps over to the enemy and hits them twice with his sword dealing devastating damage.
- Counter-Attack: When equipped with certain accessories Frog will counter when an enemy attacks him without taking up a turn.
*Slurp: Restore a small amount of HP to an ally. Frog sticks out his tongue and a row of beige circles stretches toward the targeted ally, who then spins with multiple violet sparkles showering over them.
*X-Strike: X-Strike is a Tech in Chrono Trigger usable by Crono and Frog. X-Strike becomes available once Crono and Frog learn Cyclone and Slurp Slash, respectively. Although Frog is not officially recruited until after the Masamune is reforged by Melchior and the Hero's Badge is recovered from Tata, this tech can be learned as early as Crono's first visit to the Middle Ages. Both Crono and Frog slash at the enemy at the same time leaving an X mark behind.
*Ice Water: Ice Water is a Tech in Chrono Trigger used by Marle and Frog. Frog summons Water and Marle summons Ice inside of the bubble. Frog's bubble then pops, allowing water to envelope the screen.
*Red Needle: Red Needle (also known as Red Pin in the SNES/PS version) is a tech in Chrono Trigger. It is used by Frog and Lucca. Both Frog and Lucca start their techs. Then Frog jumps up and Lucca releases fire into the air. Frog starts to slash the enemy on the way down(see Aerial Strike) and deals small fire damage.
*Frog Launcher: Launch Frog to strike an enemy. Robo punches his chest and Frog jumps atop him, who is grabbed and thrown at the targeted enemy with his broadsword on his hands. A blue line appears, starting from Robo, crossing through the target and going to the edge of the battlefield. Frog goes off-bounds and reappears at the top of the screen
*Slurp Kiss: Fully restore all allies' HP and status.
*Frost Arc: Frost Arc is a Triple Tech that is used by Crono, Marle, and Frog in Chrono Trigger. It combines Cleave, Ice II, and Aerial Strike to create a strong powerful tech. During the attack, Marle readies an ice spell while Crono humorously leaps off of Frog's back into the air. Marle grants Crono's sword her magic as he creates one half of a cross coming down on the enemy. Frog then completes the other half. The enemy target receives heavy Water damage.
*Delta Storm: Delta Storm is a Triple Tech that is used by Crono, Frog and Lucca in Chrono Trigger. It combines Lightning II, Fire II and Water II to create a strong powerful tech. In the tech, Crono, Lucca and Frog focus their magic power while slowly rising into the air as the screen becomes dark. From the center of the battlefield, a tremendous triangular prism grows and begins rotating, shifting through the elements of Water, Fire and Light respectively before fading away. Afterward, the trio settles to the ground and the enemies receive a large amount of Shadow damage.
*Triple Attack: Triple Attack is a Triple Tech that is used by Crono, Frog, and Robo in Chrono Trigger. It combines X-Strike and Robo Tackle to create a strong powerful tech.
*3-D Attack: 3-D Attack is a Triple Tech that is used by Crono, Ayla, and Frog in Chrono Trigger. It combines Cyclone, Triple Kick, and Slurp Slash to create a strong powerful tech. Crono and Frog do their X-strike cutting through the enemy as Ayla jumps into the air and kicks the enemy with devastating force.
*Master Mune: Master Mune is a Triple Tech that is used by Marle, Frog and Robo in Chrono Trigger. It combines Arise, Frog Squash and Laser Spin to create a powerful tech.
Key: Early Game | Pre-Vortex | Post-Vortex
Note: The 50% of damage absorption does not mean they absorb 50% of the damage and take the other 50% of damage, it means that they convert 50% of the damage into health, while the other 50% is neglected.
