Finned Jellyfish

Master· L9
Elimination

A Finned Jellyfish is an almost-jellyfish with fins. Same fin logic as Finned X-Wing / Finned Swordfish: fish OR fin — only cover-cell eliminations.

Before this: Learn Jellyfish and Finned X-Wing first.

Why it works

Perfect jellyfish story vs fin-true story — only eliminations common to both stories are allowed. Fins shrink the zone.

Demonstration

7212138749213852852379781892437954596

Find an almost-jellyfish with fin candidates in one box.

7212138749213852852379781892437954596

The green cells are a Finned Jellyfish on 1. Either the fish holds, or the fin is true.

7212138749213852852379781892437954596

Only the fin’s cover cells are attacked in both stories.

7212138749213852852379781892437954596

Eliminate 1 from the fin’s cover cells (red).

Example 1

Remove 2 where the fin covers (red). Fish OR fin — only shared victims.
