Is there anyway to determine how many groups you fight with?
When I first got it we had a ps2 and I always got 1 party.
Then when I got my own ps1 I popped it in and I had to fight with three parties, and was pretty mad :P
Recently I went through again with TWO parties (which was better than three) and now I'm wondering if there's a way to ensure that I fight with 1 party.
I've always thought it depended on how powerful your characters are, if you've recruited Vincent and Yuffie (why your third team will have only two characters), how well you performed against Jenova-SYNTHESIS, and probably some other things.
But really, you only need one team to beat him. I never ever switch teams. It was a great idea (everyone working together), but it just wasn't executed very well...:cat:

You will face the single party version if any one of the following are true:
1. Jenova*SYNTHESIS achieved 13 or more turns before the countdown for
Ultima started. Note that this still counts turns where Jenova
couldn't do anything due to an Arm being dead. Also note that the
very first turn Jenova begins the countdown on does not count.
2. The average party level is 53 or less. Aeris is not included in
this count, and if you have skipped Yuffie or Vincent, then whoever
you've skipped will not be included either. The average is the sum
of your party's levels divided by the number of party members,
rounded down.
3. At least one party member is L34 or less. A character in this level
range automatically earns you the single party version of
Bizarro*Sephiroth.
---------------
You will face the two party version if you do not qualify for the single
party version, but one of the following is true:
1. At least one party member is L44 or less.
2. You are missing either Vincent or Yuffie or both.
3. The average party level is 67 or less.
---------------
Finally, you will get the three party version if you fail to qualify for
the previous two versions. To be precise, this means that all of the
following is true:
1. Jenova*SYNTHESIS only achieved 12 turns or less before she began her
Ultima countdown.
2. The average level of the party is 68 or greater.
3. The lowest level character in your party is L45 or greater.
4. Both Vincent and Yuffie have been recruited into your party.
thanks :P
it's so much easier with 1 party
