please correct me if im wrong but
Tidus's Overdrives
SPRIRAL CUT » You start with it at the beginning of the game. SLICE & DICE » You need to perform ten Overdrives successfully, meaning that you have pressed the X Button when the cursor is at the center of the meter. This Overdrive attacks random enemies you encounter six times. ENERGY RAIN » You need to perform 25 successful Overdrives to acquire Energy Rain, it's a pretty massive attack that hurts all the enemies you fight against. BLITZ ACE » You need to perform 80 successful Overdrives to acquire the Final Overdrive for Tidus. It's pretty long but it's worth it since it deals a good amount of damage on all the enemies you encounter. Blitz Ace attacks any fiend on the field nine times.

YUNA :
----

Grand Summon :

Yuna has only one Overdrive and it's Grand Summon. Grand Summon makes an Aeon appears with a full Overdrive gauge. Here's what is cool about Grand Summon. If your Aeon already have an Overdrive and you use your Grand Summon Overdrive to call it, you will have two Overdrives with that summon ! Pretty cool huh !? So in other words, when you use your Overdrive attack, your Aeon gauge will return to its previous condition.

AURON :
-----

The Overdrives for Auron are pretty hard to get. Once you have defeated Spherimorph at Lake Macalania, you will acquire a Jecht Sphere. From that point, nine others spheres will be scattered all around Spira and your job is to find them to make Auron learn new Overdrives.

When you have an Overdrive, you'll need to input a correct set of commands, look below for the list of all the correct input commands.

DRAGON FANG :
Dragon Fang attacks all enemies on the screen, it's a pretty good Overdrive to start with. Here's how you input the commands:



Down + Left + Up + Right + L1 + R1 + O + X

SHOOTING STAR :
To learn Shooting Star, you need to find one Jecht Sphere, so you learn it automatically after defeating Spherimorph. What is good about Shooting Star is that it eject any fiends from a fight, except bosses of course. Here's how you input the commands:


Triangle, O, Square, X, Left, Right, X

BANISHING BLADE :
Banishing Blade is a pretty powerful attack, it attacks one fiend and deals great damage on him _AND_ the attack does Power Break, Armor Break, Magic Break and Mental Break on the enemy. So yes, it's pretty powerful. You need to find three Jecht Spheres to learn Banishing Blade. Here's how you input the commands:


UP, L1, Down, R1, Right, Left, Triangle

TORNADO :
This is the hardest Overdrive to get, to learn it, you need to find all 10 Jecht Spheres. Tornado attacks all the fiends on the field so you will enjoy that Overdrive. Here's how you will need to input the commands:

LOCATION OF THE JECHT SPHERES

- You can get one once you defeat Spherimorph at Lake Macalania.
- There is another one in Besaid, near the Temple.
- There is one at Luca, in the Stadium.
- There is another one in SS Liki, on the bridge, this is a ship you board at Besaid.
- There is one at the Mi'ihen Road, adjacent to where you found the Mars Crest.
- Another one at the Mushroom Rock.
- There is another one at the Moonflow.
- There is another one at the South of the Thunder Plains.
- There is one at Mt. Gagazet, on the mountain path.
- The last one is in Macalania Woods South, near the boy and his mother.


WAKKA :
-----

Wakka's Overdrives revolves around a slot-machine style reel : Line up three of the same symbol and get a crazy attack. This, if for no other reason, is why you should play blitzball : Wakka's initial Overdrive is terrible, but his later ones are great. They are as follows:

ELEMENT REELS :
Adds an element to your attack. Getting three different colors results in a critical-hit with no elemental attribute. Two same and one different gets you an elemental attack against a single random enemy. All three of the same symbol results in an elemental attack against all enemies. This reel underpowered, in my opinion, because of its low overall damage output, especially compared to...

ATTACK REELS :
This one is the jackpot. Winnable in Blitzball tournaments, this Overdrive lets Wakka hit enemies 2 - 12 times depending on how you line up the reels. Three "2-hit" results in Wakka going crazy and doing 12 hits to random enemies.

STATUS REELS :
Winnable in Blitzball, this reel adds status effects to your attack. Potentially useful, but I'd rather stick with the Attack Reels.

AUROCH REELS :
Winnable in Blitzball, this reel is a combination of several other reels. The true beauty, however, comes when you line up 3 of the Besaid Aurochs logo - Wakka inflicts heavy damage on all your opponents.

LULU :
----

Lulu's Overdrive can get pretty strong by the end of the game but is pretty weak at the beginning. Her Overdrive is Fury, and when you select it in a battle, you will see a screen with a number. Spin the right analog stick clockwise to get the highest number possible. The number indicated is also the number of time you need to do full rotation of the stick in order to get the number go up by one.

Just to tell you, I've never been able to get a higher number than 8 !

Here is the list of spells she can cast in her Overdrive :

Fire Thunder Water Blizzard Fira Thundara Watera Blizzara Firaga Thundaga Waterga Blizzaga Bio Demi Death Drain Osmose Flare Ultima

RIKKU :
-----

Rikku's Overdrive is Mix. When you have it in a fight, you will need to select two items in order to make one. This is, without a shadow of a doubt, the most complex Overdrive in the game. For more information about Mixing, please look in the Mix List Section. Now, I will list the final 64 items you can achieve by Mixing.

Grenade Frag Grenade Pineapple Potato Masher Cluster Bomb Tallboy Blaster Mine Hazardous Shell Calamity Bomb Chaos Grenade Heat Blaster Firestorm Burning Soul Brimstone Abaddon Flame Snow Flurry Icefall Winter Storm Black Ice Krysta ThunderBolt Rolling Thunder Lightning Bolt Electroshock ThunderBlast Waterfall Flash Flood Tidal Wave Aqua Toxin Dark Rain Nega Burst Black Hole SuperNova Ultra Potion Panacea Ultra Cure Mega Phoenix Final Phoenix Elixir Mega Elixir Super Elixir Final Elixir NulAll Mega NulAll Hyper NulAll Ultra NulAll Mighty NulAll Mighty G Super Mighty G Hyper Mighty G Vitality Mega Vitality Hyper Vitality Mana Mega Mana Hyper Mana Freedom Freedom X Quartet of 9 Trio of 9999 Hero Drink Miracle Drink Hot Spurs Eccentric

KIMAHRI :
-------

Kimahri learns blue magic / enemy skills by using its Lancet Ability. There aren't much enemy skills to learn, but try to do Lancet numerous times on enemies, some fiends have more than one Lancet to learn. Look in the bestiary to find if you can learn any Enemy Skills from them.

Here's the list of all the enemy skills you can learn in the game :

Jump Fire Breath Seed Cannon Self-Destruct Thrust Kick Stone Breath Aqua Breath Doom White Wind Bad Breath Mighty Guard Nova

i hope this helps you with your overdrives

You need to perform ten Overdrives successfully, meaning that you have pressed the X Button when the cursor is at the center of the meter.
Tidus' ODs don't need to be successful to count.


You need to perform 25 successful Overdrives to acquire Energy Rain
30, not 25.


Spin the right analog stick clockwise to get the highest number possible.
It needn't be clockwise. Both directions work.


The number indicated is also the number of time you need to do full rotation of the stick in order to get the number go up by one.
False. The number of spins required depends on the spell used and Lulu's Magic stat.

It never hurts to reinforce the point.

For example, the SEARCH button is there, right in their faces, yet they refuse to use it!
