Go to the one and only Omega Ruins/Dungeon of course. They got both Omega Ruin/Dungeon and Mt. Gagazet Monsters there. There's also Ultima Weapon and The Heretic Omega there. They're like really strong butt they're actually weaker than any Area/Species Conquest or Original Monster. So this is a good place to power up and spice up your juice. Test your skills by praktsin which is to defeat Ultima Weapon and The Heretic Omega...
Dunno where the Omega Ruins is?! Then go to UKcheats.com and then go to FFX. If you can't B bothered, then just practise at Zanarkand. It's also important to get all powered up Legendary Weapons, from Tidus' Caladbolg to Rikku's GodHand.
*Do you know the Cactuar King at the Monster Arena?! Cos if U do, U can take that annoying piece of £^*K $"!* by using an overdrive that will commit 99,999 x 2 (This can B done by legendary weapons or weapons that have "Break Damage Limit")

They are too hard for me. I mean where is the best place to train up so I can fight in the monster arena. I've tried the area conquest monsters and I get killed dead straight away. :~(

Hey! What'bout this Manga Artist over here? *Waves* Don't you wanna ask me?! Anyway, the place to raise up your stats is at the monster arena. Each Species Conquest or Original monster will give you either some special sphere thingies of their own or a few Dark Matters. For example, The Earth Eater gives U Fortune Spheres while that One-Eye creature gives you Magic Defence Spheres once U've defeated them.
Also is there anywhere I can get a supply of Level 4 keyspheres from. I don't seem to have enough to unlock everything.
I think I have made a bit of a lash up of the sphere grid :S
If you haven't seen me around lately its because I have been doing nothing but play FFX.
The mini games are driving me mental.

I dissagree. I hate pointless FMVs like anything, but all the ones in FFX seem to foward the story and develop the characters and plot. There's nothing in there just for the hell of it.
Especially the 'whistling scene' after leaving Luca (I think) kinda, oh, I don't know .... 'touched' me. Sounds like a load of crap but it really did.
Weird, non?
Games are powerful things

Doh! I forgot about that! Ah well, the lack of aeons will make it harder, but its still possible. Auron, Tidus and Wakka all have nice powerful overdrives, so make sure you have those handy, and also see if you can get Rikku to do a decent Mix. If you can find the right ingredients, some of them can be quite powerful at that stage of the game. Lulu's overdrive can work alright, but its probably the least good initially. As for Kimahri... well, best to use him for other stuff.
> And nah, there ain't any other monsters on-board to fight.
That is worrying. Without them its not possible to build up your stats and overdrives without fighting Evrae himself. In this case, just keep doing the fight over and over again until you beat him. If you've got him down to 500HP then you`re obviously very close, so perhaps you'll do it next time.
If Rin is on board, see if you can buy some supplies from him. They might be a little more expensive, but if you can get plenty of remedies and antidotes then you should be alright. As I said before though, the Al Bhed potions are the best for it as they heal everybody and get rid of lots of status effects too.
Finally, the haste, which was mentioned before is vital. It sounds silly, but it makes a huge difference. If you have haste on then you get those few extra chances to revive KO'd characters. Once revived though, you`ll need to cast haste on them again though, but this is more important than taking opportunistic shots at the enemy. Worry about keeping your party safe first, then about taking out Evrae.
