I was planning to do the last two battles legit, meaning I'd have to pick the equipment for both battles and don't do anything in between. Then I got to the final battle in a test run and it froze at Super Nova, so I had to do a lot of leveling to be able to defeat him. I also realized the battle would have been extremely luck reliant under level 50, so I'd have to level up anyway. If I still wanted to do the battles legit, I'd have to level up before Bizarro, making him a joke, so I decided to just fight them as two standalone battles instead. That means Cloud is still level 49 and Barret level 48.

The beginning of the battle must be done in a very specific way. First, take out the right arm before his second turn, or else he'll use Bolt3. Then, take out the left arm before his third turn, or else he'll use Quake3. Even with this much HP, you can't survive it. Finally, take out the head before his fourth turn, or else he'll use Stigma. You can survive it, but it inflicts Poison, and you really don't want that. Once that's taken care of, you need to take out the Core and finally the main body. Now, he'll get into a pattern where he uses Heartless Angel every 6th turn, and you obviously need to recover from that before he starts attacking again. Thankfully, he wastes a few turns doing nothing after Heartless Angel. As long as you know about this, the rest of the battle is really simple and his damage is too low to pose any threat.

In my original strategy, Cloud would have had the Reflect Ring, so I'd have to spend my Elixirs healing him.
