Best ever.
Yeah, I laughed pretty hard. It's even funnier considering Onion Knight is a kid. >_> Oh, and to add to that, he has Joshua's voice actor (from The World Ends With You). You'll see why that makes it more hilarious when you get to that game.
So I continued with Onion Knight. His logic for fighting Cloud of Darkness was baffling. "I don't fight anyone I can't beat, so I'll beat you!" "lol wut" Despite that, I enjoyed his story overall. Got Odyssey: Final Fantasy III for finishing it. The summon I got was Phoenex. Cloud of Darkness wound up killing me twice, I find her annoying as heck to fight.
I bought Exdeath with the PP I had earned. Now I can play as a tree. Yay?
Terra was next. She played decently, but as a magic user felt pretty slow. Her distance attacks were nice. I liked how her wall running was actually floating, as compared to everyone else being from the Matrix. Got Hard Habit to Break (play for at least 15 hours), Test One's Mettle (deliver at least 1500 bravery attacks), and Odyssey: Final Fantasy VI. Found Demon Wall as a summon. Got my second play plan treasure, another Chocobo Feather.
So with only one villain left to purchase, I got Cloud of Darkness. Blah. Then I picked up CP Level +10 and CP Level +20 for future grinding.
The last one was Warrior of Light. He's fairly solid, not my preferred choice but nice to use. I lost to a Jecht manikin due to him having some crazy brave raising ability. Then I lost to an identical Jecht manikin later. So yeah, that sucked. I knocked Garland down at least. Their fight scene was epic. Got Odyssey: Final Fantasy I and At Odyssey's End (complete all Odysseys). The summon I picked up here was Ifrit.
For play plan purposes, I bought Play Plan-Black Chocobo Course and Play Plan-Fat Chocobo course with PP. I'll start buying alternate costumes next since I have obtained all the villains to play as.
Eighteen deaths, eleven counting. 10/10 villains, 25/151 accomplishments.
Character ranking from play style alone: Zidane>Tidus>Bartz>Onion Knight>=Firion>Squall>Warrior of Light>Terra>Cloud>=Cecil. Though I might judge Cloud and Cecil differently now that I know more about the game, I should try playing as them again.
Story wise, I liked them all for different reasons. I't hard to rank that one really. Tidus' gets points for being the only one to hit me hard in the emotional department. They all have quite good crowning moments of awesome though.

[Spoiler for Dissidia: Final Fantasy, click to show]Actually, I'm going to start Shade Impulse tomorrow. I don't have enough time to get anything out of it today. I'll try to 100% the prelude tonight as something small that I can accomplish. I got on long enough to get my two Mognet letters. Got 30 PP for each, and told the second Moogle it was exciting to receive letters. I got the accomplishment Special Delivery (receive at least 10 Mognet letters). So that's 26/151 accomplishments.

First run got me enough PP for CPU Level Cap +30 and Zidane's alternate outfit. Second time through I grabbed Tidus'. I also changed my play plan to Casual since my chocobo had fallen asleep recently. ~_~
It changed to Tuesday after that. The Mognet's first letter gave me 30 PP and Friend Card "Stilzkin: 4". The second gave me 30 PP and Friend Card "Stilzkin: 7". Yay. >_>
Today is my bonus day (I set it for Tuesday as some may recall), so I'll need to play a lot.
Funny note: I got more AP than usual in my fights today. The calendar was marked with AP, wonder what caused that.
Oh, and apparently when you get all the bonuses for a mode, it'll give you PP, which is nice.

Have you used every ether/potion on every map and killed every piece? Be sure you get even the 0 DP Treasure if there is one and the one for having the most DP possible. Anything that isn't a PP reward is required for 100%, even awful Gil rewards.

It's random.

Part one was certainly a kick to the head in terms of difficulty. It took me me three deaths to beat a boss manikin of Garland, and I died three times to a boss manikin of Squall before being forced to flee. The actual boss of Kefka got a kill on me before I wrecked him. The rest I managed to get through without dying.
Other accomplishments I got during this include I Love a Brawl (300 battles), Road to Conquest (win 300 battles), A Good Plan (casual plan cleared), and PP Baron (earn at least 5000 PP). I got a Chocobo Down from the casual plan.
Bought seven stages that appeared when I finished chapter one of Shade Impulse. Old Chaos Shrine, Pandaemonium, World of Darkness, Lunar Subterrane, The Rift, Kefka's Tower, and Dream's End, all omega versions.
Chapter two was kind of a pain too, but I got through. Lost once each to two boss manikins of Tidus before fleeing from them. A regular Onion Knight manikin killed me once, but that was odd because I wrecked him completely after. Not sure how it happened. Accomplishment-wise I got Impulse: Final Fantasy IX (do Shade Impulse with Zidane), Fashion Conscious (obtain at least 100 accessories), and Road Trip (travel at least 100 kilometers).
Bought the last three locations when they appeared. Planet's Core, Ultimecia's Castle, Crystal World, all omega versions. Bartz and Onion Knight alternate outfits were purchased with my remaining PP.
So I am about halfway done with Shade Impulse, I believe? I'll finish it when my PSP recharges.
Twenty-eight deaths, twelve counting. 33/151 accomplishments.

With the PP I had gotten, I bought CPU Level Cap +40, +50, +60, and Firion's alternate outfit.
I did Cloud's Destiny Odyssey for the heck of it. Had seven deaths to an elite Sephiroth manikin before I finally won (geez). I died once to the Cloud elite manikin before booking it. I got the accomplishment Reprisal of the Hero (kill the hero manikins at least 30 times, according to Epyon, the game doesn't say the amount). Got Magic Pot Auto.
Got Squall, Cloud, and Terra's alternate outfits.
Decided to go through it again to pick up the items I was missing, such as summons. Got Magic Pot and Typhon. After it was done, got Cecil, Warrior of Light, Jecht, Golbez, and Kujas alternate outfits.
As I went through Shade Impulse 3, I got the accomplishment The Strongest Link (have a level 50 character). Didn't die at all because I avoided all the overpowered manikins. Bought CPU Level Cap +70, 80, 90, and the alternate Sephiroth outfit.
In Shade Impulse 4, the last one, I got Modus EX-perandi (go into EX mode at least 100 times), Reprisal on the Stalwart (30 kills on Garland), and What Slayed the Champion (30 kills on Sephiroth). Chapter was very simple for the most part.
That is, until the final boss. Chaos is a total jerk that exemplifies the computer being a cheater. Died four times to him so far and was in the middle of my fifth fight before my PSP died. Auuuugh. This is going to suck.
Forty deaths, sixteen counting. 38/151 accomplishments.

Since all I needed was to get an Ether in Cloud's story, that was simple enough. Hit 100% with him and used my mass amount of PP bonuses from it to buy Order's Sanctuary (omega) and alternate outfits for Ultimecia, Kefka, Garland, Emperor, and Exdeath. Only Cloud of Darkness left, lolz.
Speaking of alternate outfits, I used Cloud's while going through the last time. It was his Advent Children outfit, which I prefer to his SOLDIER one, so that was cool.
I then went to Cecil's Destiny Odyssey so I could finish the average player plan I started. By finishing it, I got A Good Plan and found a Chocobo Wing. I'll finish that run up when I return home.
Forty-one deaths, seventeen counting. 40/151 accomplishments.

I finished going through Cecil's Destiny Odyssey and got Bomb as a summon. Avoided elite manikins this time around. With the PP I got I bought Cloud of Darkness' alternate outfit. With all the outfits bought, I moved onto voice clips. Got Zidane's voice and encounter voice, and then Tidus'.
On my next run through Cecil's Destiny Odyssey, I got the Carbuncle summon from behind a previously sealed area. I died to the Golbez elite manikin twice before fleeing. Came back to use Master Eye, Missile, and then an EX for the win. Ran into the Cecil elite manikin, died four times, and fled. I can't express how hard it is for me to use Cecil. Even with more experience in the game, I have a really hard time hitting anything with him. Cloud felt better when I went back to him, but I just suck as Cecil. Which is a shame because I like the Dark Knight/Paladin split he has.
With my winnings I got Jecht, Bartz, Cloud, Squall, and Onion Knight's voices. Got two more accomplishments: The Road to Conquest (win at least 500 battles) and PP Baron (earn at least 10000 PP).
Forty-seven deaths, seventeen counting. 42/151 accomplishments.

[Spoiler for Dissidia: Final Fantasy, click to show]The Mognet was generous today. I got 300 PP and Friend Card "Stilzkin: 5" from the first, 30 PP and Superslick from the second. Bought Firion and Cecil voices.
Forgot to mention Cecil's alternate outfit yesterday. It's all right, seems to have a red motif instead of the usual blue one. Not that much of a difference really.
While going through Cecil's Destiny Odyssey for the fourth time, I got the accomplishments Core Blimey (300 EX cores), Unswerving Path (100 DP), and The Vanquished Warlock (beat Golbez manikins). Lost to the Cecil elite manikin once before beating it. Bought Terra, Warrior of Light, Garland, Kuja, Sephiroth, and Golbez's voices.
When I started my fifth (and hopefully final, I'm sick of this) run, I got Rejuvenation (regenerate at least 10000 HP) and The Vanquished Knight (defeat Cecil manikins). My PSP is recharging now, but hopefully I can get the Rosetta Stone and treasure chest I need when it's done, since that's all I have left.

I started Firion's Destiny Odyssey to get to 100%. During this replay, I got the accomplishments Road Trip (150 kilometers travelled) and The Thwarted Liegeman (defeat Firion mainikins). Picked up a summon, Shiva. Used PP to buy PP Icon Boost Lv 2, PP Icon Boost Lv 3, Gil Icon Boost Lv 2, and AP Icon Boost Lv 3.
My third run got the summon Malboro, and I bought EXP Icon Boost Lv 3, Lv 4, Lv 5, Lv 6, and Gil Icon Boost Lv 3.
Decided to try Chaos again at this point. I got The Foiled Wraith (defeat Cloud of Darkness manikins) on the way. I died to Chaos twice before finally succeeding. Valor Incense was the key to victory; it gives 100% increase to initial brave but breaks after the battle. Since Chaos has three forms, I got that increase at the start of each form, so it was very useful. I'll have to get another one later to replace it. Oh, I also equipped a Phoenix Down, but I didn't need to use it so it didn't break. Yay.
For beating the game, two new story modes opened, an arena opened, other PP items became available to buy, and I got Cosmos Report #9. Bought Chaos' voices since they got unlocked and I had barely any PP.
Going through Firion's story for a fourth time, hopefully will finish soon. PSP will need recharging shortly though.
Fifty deaths, twenty counting. 51/151 accomplishments.

Oh, I like Firion's alternate outfit. Pretty radical change.
Starting with Tidus' Destiny Odyssey, I got What Banished the Phantom (defeat Jecht manikins) and The Thwarted Despot (defeat Emperor manikins). I found the summon Magus Sisters and won Behemoth. I also defeated an elite Jecht manikin first try, much to my surprise. Tidus is just so much easier to use for fighting. I bought the BGM The Crystal Tower (FFIII) and bought the ability to unlock Diamond Ring, Airship Course, and Falcon Course. Even went and bought a Diamond Ring, they're fairly nice.
On my third run through Tidus' story, I got Two Piece and a Biscuit (inflict 1,500,000 damage), The Wanderer's End (defeat Bartz manikins), What Banished the Vision (defeat Tidus manikins), The Harlequin's Last Laugh (defeat Kefka manikins), The Witch's Snare (defeat Ultimecia manikins), and The Foiled Youth (defeat Onion Knight manikins). Whew! Bought the BGM The Red Wings (FFIV).
My fourth run with Tidus got me What Defeated the Thief (defeat Zidane manikins). I bought the BGMs The Decisive Battle (FFV) and Dancing Mad (FFVI). Tidus' Destiny Odyssey was then at 100%.
It should be noted that this is the lamest alternate costume ever. OH LOOK HIS BARELY SEEN PANT LEG TURNED FROM RED TO BLUE HOW DRAMATIC.
Squall's Destiny Odyssey came after that. Got A Fistful of Gil (receive 200,000 gil) and What Felled the Mighty Tree (defeat Exdeath manikins). Won the summon Pupu and accidentally lost to a Bartz gold manikin. That thing was a pain, I had to retry eight times to get its Destiny Point because it would keep dodging like a madman and I only had ten seconds to get it. Bought the BGMs Opening-Bombing Mission (FFVII) and The Man with the Machine Gun (FFVIII).
Squall's alternate outfit has got to be the best ever (or at least so far). It's him in his SeeD outfit and he looks awesome. Almost makes up for Tidus'... almost.
My PSP is recharging now, so more later.

So dungeon seven was haunted or something. Minibosses were two ghosts that tried to keep torches unlit, the actual boss was a dragon thing with two heads. I nearly died to it once (reset to avoid it), killed it the second time, saved, got the essence, quit, and forgot to save after that, so I had to go back to get the essence again. Thank goodness I saved after the boss so I didn't have to refight it. >_> The item was Roc's Cape, which is about the only item upgrade that's worth a darn. Gliding is fun.
I quickly found dungeon eight by throwing a bomb into a lava pit and causing the volcano world to explode into the other world. I'm sure that's totally safe. Dungeon eight has been simple enough so far. Got to the miniboss before saving and quitting because that gave me a warp point back to that room. The miniboss was a fire/ice thing you had to shoot with seeds a lot. It made me use up the Magic Potion I got from Maple after dungeon seven, the jerk. Oh, and the item? A slingshot that shoots three seeds. THIS. BLOODY. GAME.

I went through a new story mode with Zidane. It stars some idiot from Final Fantasy XI named Shantotto. I found the summon Titan on the way. Had to fight all of Cosmos' warriors, but I only died once to Cloud and Squall. Shantotto herself sucked. I bought CPU Level Cap +100 and a BGM called The Darkness of Eternity (FFIX). Shantotto became available to buy but screw that for the minute, she's too stupid to buy.
The next story mode starred a character from FFXII named Gabranth, who was far more interesting. I got the accomplishment Hey, Big Spender (spend at least 100000 Gil in the shop) on the way. Lost to Golbez once, but that was it (had to fight all of Chaos' warriors this time). Found the summon Iron Giant. Gabranth wasn't hard to fight, but at least he was cool. I bought the stage End of Madness (omega) and the BGM Fight with Seymour (FFX). I have all the music now. Gabranth became available to buy, which is great.
While going through Squall's Destiny Odyssey for the third time, I got the accomplishment Collect Them All! (PP catalog at least 50% complete) and The Lion's Snare (defeat Squall manikins). Found the summon Bahamut. Bought Gabranth and his alternate outfit after that. My PSP is recharging now.

I went to the Maku Tree to get a Maku Nut and head to the evil temple where Onox was hiding. Went through the three enemy rooms (one had Facade, because apparently he's a REALLY GOOD MINIBOSS THEY USED HIM TWICE IN THIS GAME COPIED AND PASTED FROM LINK'S AWAKENING) and found Onox.
First form is simple and I never had trouble with it. You spin attack him while avoiding his mace and boulders he drops, along with wind gusts. After a while, he brings out the crystal Din is trapped in to protect him. Knock it away with the Rod of Seasons and spin attack him. Nothing to it.
The second form... SCREW this form. He's a dark dragon that tries to hit you with his clawed hands. You have to jump on those hands. 50% of the time I tried, I got hurt from the claws. Add in claw swipes that are nearly impossible to avoid, fire attacks that are easy to walk into, and swirling fire that has an unpredictable pattern, and ARGH. Four times I died to this son of a lizard. The fifth I used my Magic Potion and only won because I figured out how to continuously jump from hand to hand (Roc's Cape+Pegasus Seed+Sword basically). My reward? A picture of Din thanking Link where she looks like she wants to eat him. I hate this game.
So now that I have the password for Oracle of Ages to do a linked game, that'll be next. If there is a god out there, bless my soul please.
Passwords...
Oracle of Ages (for Seasons): t/m*down arrow*b 2gwRj *square*T*circle*(*spade* y@+w5
Oracle of Seasons (for Ages): (2LF2 2/yB= RG9L@ (ifm)

Battery life note: I used a fresh pair of batteries to beat Link's Awakening, get through the first three dungeons of Oracle of Ages, restart that game and do the first three dungeons again, and they died there. The batteries I'm using now have lasted me through the rest of Oracle of Ages and all of Oracle of Seasons. These things have more power than I gave them credit for.

[Spoiler for Dragon Warrior Monsters 2: Tara's Adventure, click to show]Yeah, another Gameboy Color game. That's the full title, but there isn't much of a difference between Cobi and Tara, so I'll shorten it next time. From what I remember, it's fun, but I didn't get very far in it.
So the game starts with my mother, father, brother (Cobi), and I moving to GreatLog to set up a monster farm. We are sent by our mother to go pick up a pie our grandma sent to us. On the way, we see Prince Kameha, who is a brat, and Warubou, who is a GreatLog element that is a punk. They try to steal our pie, and while we struggle to get it back, the prince gets knocked into a plug and sends it flying. He runs off like a wuss while Warubou jumps into the hole to act as a replacement plug. If we don't get a better plug, GreatLog will lose all of its life energy and the island will sink, which would suck. Nobody believes us when we tell the townspeople, so after delivering the pie to our mother, we promise Warubou to go to different worlds to find a new plug. Someone needs to stay behind to help with the farm, so Cobi remains while Tara is joined by a slime named Slash.
There we go, that's about the longest plot paragraph there will be this entire game. Before leaving, Warubou had given me an Oasis Key and a GreatLog Key, which allows me to travel to the Oasis world and back through a magic door. By talking to my parents, my mother gave me an Herb and my father gave me a PorkChop. The herb heals, the meat is helpful for recruiting monsters. I went to the magical door to hit the oasis world.
First monster we ran into, a SpotSlime, asked to join instantly after I beat it. Well that was easy! Nicknamed the level 2 male SpotSlime Polka (you only get five spaces). Found an Herb lying around before reaching the first town, which was called Kalka. Found an Herb and BeefJerky in two pots, but that was all of interest. While roaming the desert, I found two more Herbs and the other common monster, a Cactiball. By this point, Polka was in bad shape, so I went to GreatLog and found that Warubou would heal me for free upon returning. That's great, because I haven't gotten any money from monsters (only experience) and inns cost money, of course.
When I went back out, found an Herb and another SpotSlime that wanted to join me. I let it since there's no reason not to right now, but it'll probably get kicked off the farm later. Nicknamed the level 1 male SpotSlime Spot because I'm not going to bother making good names for duplicate monsters. <_< When I went back to a screen I had already been on, I found another Herb, so it looks like they spawn randomly. I'll quit noting the random ones I find, but I want to this update just so I can make it clear how many of these things show up.
On the way back for a second healing, a Cactiball asked to join up. Nicknamed the level 5 Cactiball Spike. Once I got healed, I found two more Herbs before having to retreat to get Spike healed. Explored some more, found another Herb (lots to stockpile in the Vault, as you can see) and two new monsters, a Catapila and a KingCobra. Those were a bit advanced though, I had gone too far out of bounds.
I retreated and found a town called Asiya and found an Antidote in a pot. Apparently the king there has many treasures, he likes circus performers, and a circus troop leader needs more performers. Take a guess at what you have to do to get into the castle. After having my three monsters perform, I talked to the king about my problem, and he said he'd give me a nice magical bell item if I could find out what he was doing that displeased his subjects. Sounds fair enough. I'll be doing that next time.

While going through Squall's Destiny Odyssey for the fourth and last time, I got What Defeated the Reaper (defeat Kuja manikins). Bought Shantotto (ugh), her alternate look, her voices, and Gabranth's voices. For these I got Cast of Thousands (have a sum of 22 characters appear) and In Vogue (obtain alternate costumes for all characters). Also received a nice, shiny star next to character files. Squall's Destiny Odyssey is at 100% now.
While running through Zidane's Destiny Odyssey for a repeat, I got the summon Cactaur. Bought the BGMs Awakening (FFXI) and Fight to the Death (FFXII)
Third run, got the summon Alexander. Unlocked Invincible Course and Lunar Whale Course with my PP.
I didn't actually need a complete fourth run. I was at 98%, so I popped in to kill a False Hero manikin I had missed previously and then exited after clearing the map. Zidane's Destiny Odyssey is at 100%.
Nice alternate outfit for Zidane, his light blue color scheme turns into a really dark purple of sorts.
While going through Bartz's Destiny Odyssey for the second time, I got the summons Leviathan and Tonberry. Lost to a Kuja manikin that was pretty high leveled, mainly because Kuja is quite good rather than Bartz being hard to control. As stated before, I like Bartz a lot. Got the accomplishment A Little Help from My Friends (obtain at least 30 summons). Bought Invincible Course and Lunar Whale Course for shops, EXP Icon Boost Lv 7, 8, and Gil Icon Boost Lv 4.
On my third run, I got Restocker's Paradise (shop stock percentage at least 50%). But my PSP needs to recharge now so I'll have to finish that later.
Bartz's alternate outfit is really odd. His brown hair becomes white and his outfit takes a white and black color scheme. Pretty drastic change.

By restarting a couple of maps after clearing them of treasure, I was able to finish Bartz's Destiny Odyssey on the third run. I bought EXP Icon Boost Lv 9, 10, Icon Likelihood Lv 3, 4, 5, and Gil Icon Boost Lv 5. Got the accomplishments The Odyssey (clear Destiny Odyssey at least 30 times) and I Love a Brawl (participate in at least 1000 battles) after those purchases. Funny note: I have exactly 1000 battles. Thanks Exdeath, I guess.
So now that Bartz's Destiny Odyssey is at 100%, Onion Knight will be next. Shouldn't be too bad. I'm not looking too forward to completing Terra's...

The Mognet's first letter gave me Friend Card "Stilzkin: 3" and Friend Card "Stilzkin: 4", with the second letter providing 30 PP and a question about seeking out a castle. I told him to look for one that can hide under the desert (lol FFVI). Got the accomplishment I Love Dissidia (play for at least 15 days straight), which puts me at 50% accomplishments.
While going through Onion Knight's Destiny Odyssey for a second time, I got the summons Phoenix and Ultros. Bought Icon Likelihood Lv 6, 7, 8, 9, and Gil Icon Boost Lv 6.
The third and final run got me the accomplishment Time for Some Action (battle for at least 10 hours). Bought Icon Likelihood Lv 10, Gil Icon Boost Lv 7, 8, 9, and 10. Onion Knight's Destiny Odyssey is now at 100%.
Onion Knight's alternate outfit turns all the red colors to blue. Starting to see a pattern? At least it's noticeable.
Rather than going on to Terra's right away, I decided to try beating Shade Impulse with Tidus. Looking at the four parts, I have actually completed Part 4. It is at 100%. Everything else needs work.
I got the summon Scarmiglione before my PSP ran out of juice. Going to let it recharge now.

While going through Terra's Destiny Odyssey for the third time, I was killed by an elite manikin of Terra before beating it up. Bought Online Match-Gain Accessories After Loss and Online Match-Battlegen OK. That was 100% for Terra.

When I got to that town, I found the king bum-rushing a guard of the canal out of the way to go check on it. lolz. I went in after him and almost instantly recruited a female Spooky that I named Wisp. Polka got thrown into the farm so she could join my party. I found another new monster down there, a MadCandle, while exploring. Found a PorkChop and Herb in two vases, and then an ExitBell in a treasure chest. I saw what looked like a boss near the king up ahead, so I decided to grind a bit, mainly to see if I could recruit anyone else.
While wandering outside, I ran into another new monster, a Crestpent. The female Crestpent wanted to join, so I named her Nagi and let her in while Wisp got kicked to the farm. Then I got a male GiantWorm to join. Named him Snake and sent him to the farm. Then I got a female MadCandle that I named Jacky and put in the farm. (If it was a male I would have called it Jack.) I'll fight the boss soon now that I've recruited most of the monsters around.
Two notes. One, if ordering monsters to do specific things, sometimes they apparently won't listen. Spike decided to ignore my order to attack someone, the little jerk. I assume they listen to you at higher levels, or stats, or just by using them more. In Dragon Quest V monsters only obeyed you for certain if their Wisdom was high enough, for instance.
The other thing, and this bugs me a lot. If you are fighting two monsters and one dies, any attacks against them for that turn are not redirected. It just says that your monster attacks, apparently hitting thin air because nothing happens. Games that do this are so annoying. >_<

[Spoiler for Dissidia: Final Fantasy, click to show]Got 30 PP from the first Mognet letter and 30 PP and Friend Card "Stilzkin: 6" from the second. While completing the third run of Warrior of Light's Destiny Odyssey, I got the summon Ifrit and the accomplishment Treasure Hunter (open at least 200 treasure chests). Since most worthwhile things in the PP Catalog are expensive, I saved up to get something nice next time. With Warrior of Light's Destiny Odyssey at 100%, that means I'm completely done with all ten. Hurrah.
Since both Distant Glory chapters needed completing, I decided to run through them with Zidane. In my second run of Shantotto's, I got the summons Atamos and Chocobo. Bought Arcade Mode-Hard Mode Unlocked when I finished.
When I went to Gabranth's, I got the accomplishment The Strongest Link (get a character to level 100) for getting Zidane to level 100 and Boosteriffic! (booster accessory multiplier at least 8). I died to an elite manikin of Shantotto once due to her somehow getting over 9000 Brave... yeah I have no idea. Also died to an elite manikin of Gabranth, mainly because he actually tried an attack move for once and I had no idea what the results would be (until this point he's never tried an HP move). I got the summon Asura and saved the PP I got for a worthwhile purchase.
Started my third run of Shantotto's before the PSP needed to be plugged in again.
