Here is the final phase of Dracula in Circle of the Moon on GBA. Full disclosure, I had beaten this boss a few minutes prior to this highlight, but my computer crashed before the end credits so I had to do it again.

I had some trouble with this phase until I realized the simple pattern. Also this fight was significantly easier with a summons, so I'd highly recommend finding the Uranus card prior to this fight. I was playing blind, so I was pretty lucky to find the Uranus card.

Here's the basic pattern I used. When Dracula attacks with the lasers I roc-wing jumped up and used the Cockatrice summon. When Dracula used poison clouds, I used the poison mist for protection. When Dracula uses his meteor attack, I did my best to dodge the meteors. When Dracula uses his charge attack I dodged it, by using my roc-wing jump straight up to the middle platform. I continued to use this jump to dodge all charge attacks. When he's done charging he turns into a floating eye surrounded by bats. I used Cockatrice summon to do damage here. Then the pattern would repeat. As backup, I had the cross as a sub weapon to damage when I was low on magic.

The code given at the end of the game allows you play with all the cards unlocked. There are also a ton of modes to play with, so there is a lot of replay value. I really enjoyed this one.
