Okay, is it even a character at all then? Because it could possibly be a weapon - maybe one of Barret's or Vincent's weapons that has stats lower than their ultimate weapon, but can perform better depending on how they're used?

How you even gonna try and call me second best?
I got the baddest one-upped by a factor of six.
If I'm on your side, you can bet I'm gonna please ya,
Blastin' em like a green-haired chick with amnesia.

It is not a character or a weapon.
Line 4 refers to Terra from FF6, but has nothing to do with her magic ability.
An enemy then? "On your side" could refer to a skill you can learn from it with the Enemy Skill materia...
Wait a second, is it one of the Weapons? They obviously have the baddest (Sephiroth) one-upped, being much more powerful than he is. Second best... could be Emerald Weapon, I think most people consider Ruby Weapon more powerful. And obviously, if one of the Weapons was on your side it'd be awesome.
I'm gonna guess Emerald Weapon - it has a lot of "blasting" attacks too, as I recall (most notably the Emerald Shoot and Aire Tam Storm moves).
My other thought is an item or accessory, but I'll hold off on that until this guess is confirmed or denied.
It is not Emerald Weapon.
hint: "factor of six" is an exact figure. The answer has to take that into consideration, so knowing that something is "way better" than something else isn't enough.
Okay, so let's puzzle this out here.
How you even gonna try and call me second best?
This seems to indicate that the answer is considered the "second best" of its category, either in-universe or out-of-universe.
I got the baddest one-upped by a factor of six.
So in other words, the answer is six times as good as the best of its kind? Or maybe it has six times a specific attribute more than something else... The "baddest" could mean literally "baddest" as in "worst", though, so it could mean that it has six more of something than the worst of its kind. Hmm... Maybe armour with Materia slots?
If I'm on your side, you can bet I'm gonna please ya,
So this is something that would be good to have, essentially. So probably either an item, armour, or accessory. It could also be an enemy, "on your side" referring to either a skill you can learn from it with the Enemy Skill Materia, or taking control of it with the Manipulate Materia.
Blastin' em like a green-haired chick with amnesia.
This line is my stumbling block. It's been confirmed to refer to Terra Branford, but I can't really see a link between her and the rest of the riddle, and we've already established it has nothing to do with magic, so by assumption the answer also has nothing to do with magic, and it's not a weapon, which leaves me wondering what "blastin' em" means... Unless it's an Enemy Skill or an enemy that "blasts" things. It might be referring to when Terra was riding the MagiTek near the beginning of the game... that had guns, as far as I recall. So it might be an enemy with guns, or something...
I don't know. Have I hit on anything here, or are my shots flying way off the mark?

That is correct!This seems to indicate that the answer is considered the "second best" of its category, either in-universe or out-of-universe.
One of those is correct!the answer is six times as good as the best of its kind? Or maybe it has six times a specific attribute more than something else...
Very clever! But incorrect.The "baddest" could mean literally "baddest" as in "worst", though, so it could mean that it has six more of something than the worst of its kind. Hmm... Maybe armour with Materia slots?
Correct!So this is something that would be good to have, essentially.
Line four doesn't actually compare the answer's method of blasting to Terra's method of blasting. In fact, it does not refer to any of the events of the FFVI game itself. Use of her in the riddle was a bit more cryptic.
With the "green-haired" being mentioned, I'm going to guess it could be a green Chocobo or a green Materia. Green Materia is a kind of magic..... Not much else I can think of....

Nope, the answer is not green.

I will go out on a limb and say Neo Bahamut.
Or Bahamut from ZERO?
But that thing about 'chick', 'green', and 'amnesia' stinks of Chocobo (Amnesia Greens, anyone?), but I'll be effed if I can find a way to connect Choco/Mog or a normal chocobo to the rest of it...

I think it's Earth Rave, Red XIII's penultimate limit break. I'm not sure about the actual statistics but six times as strong as Cosmo Memory seems about accurate. :P
The final line refers to Terra, which means earth.
Hm....I think you're right Rantz.

Silent Warrior has it!
It's the second-best summon. It has six wings, where Sephiroth, the "baddest", has one. Obviously you like having it on your side. And, finally, the elusive line 4:
Bahamut Zero's attack is called Tera ("Terra") Flare.
H-hey, what, am I supposed to conjure up a riddle of my own now? Uh... Right, here goes nothin'. Though I don't know the initial rules, I'll aim for four lines, which may or may not rhyme in any recognized way. *Think, think* *Think, think*
In the darkest depths of past sins
Lies both heaven and guardian of hell
No matter who wins
The light of day will not prevail
Ok, some poetic license, but I doubt you'll find it difficult. I'll try to check in before tomorrow evening, my timezone, but I make no guarantee.

Wow, nice riddle SW, could it possibly be the sunken gelinka?
