More progress

I've been hard at work continuing my game, preparing for the final battle. And I've made some progress.

1. Achieve the Jiminy Objective in the SB Street Rave mini-game in Twilight Town.
2. Achieve the Jiminy Objective for the "Grandstander" mini-game in Twilight Town.
3. Achieve the Jiminy Objective for the "Junk Sweep" mini-game in Twilight Town.
4. Achieve the Jiminy Objective for the "Poster Duty" mini-game in Twilight Town. This will probably be the last (or one of the last) item I take care of before the final showdown.
6. Achieve the Jiminy Objective in Phil's Training - Maniac Mode in Olympus Coliseum. (I wonder if Stitch's Limit will work here?)
7. Achieve the Jiminy Objective in the Goddess of Fate Cup in Olympus Coliseum. (Switching between menus, or possibly mastering the Magic shortcuts, is key here. When you get to the sixth match, just have the Magic Lock ability equipped and break out your Thundaga spell. It's the only way I could beat my opponents - a Fat Bandit and a Large Body - within the 30-second time limit for that round).
8. Achieve the Jiminy Objective in "The Paradox Battles: Cerberus" in Olympus Coliseum. (Of course, first I have to actually complete it - I got to Cerberus himself last time, but the clock ran out on me.)
9. Achieve the Jiminy Objective in "A Blustery Rescue" in 100 Acre Wood.
10. Achieve the Jiminy Objective in "Balloon Bounce" in 100 Acre Wood.
11. Finish leveling up Sora's normal form. I'm currently at level 90.
12. Use Sora's "Trinity Limit" Limit Break at least once. (I've heard it works well against Sephiroth. Use it, consume an Elixer and repeat until he's gone, according to one strategy guide.)
13. Having gotten the Summons activated, I still have to level up the Summon Gauge to level 5. And figure out a quick and easy way to switch between the two command menus. Losing access to the standard menu, even if it's just temporary (I hope) is most annoying.
14. Activate and attempt "The Paradox Battles: Titan" in Olympus Coliseum. (The Summon Gauge has to be at level 5 to do this.)
15. Achieve the Jiminy Objective in "The Paradox Battles: Titan" in Olympus Coliseum.
16. Complete the "Meet Sephiroth Again" mission in Radiant Garden by defeating Sephiroth, thus gaining the last level of the Drive/Summon Gauge and letting me carry out the next five goals:
17. Level up Valor Form to maximum. (It, along with Wisdom and Master Form, is currently at level 5.)
18. Level up Wisdom Form to maximum.
19. Level up Master Form to maximum.
20. Level up Final Form to maximum. (I'm still working on getting it to level 5 at the moment.)
21. Level up the Summon Gauge to maximum. These last five goals have to be done to activate the final tournament...
22. Activate and attempt "The Paradox Battles: Hades" in Olympus Coliseum.
23. Achieve the Jiminy Objective in "The Paradox Battles: Hades" in Olympus Coliseum.
24. Complete the Synthesis section by finishing the material lists. I still need seven Frost Shards (dropped by Hook Bats in the Land of Dragons), twenty Frost Stones (dropped by Aeroplanes and Hot Rods in Timeless River), seven Lucid Gems (dropped by Bookmasters in Radiant Garden), nine Power Gems (dropped by Aerial Knockers and Shamans in the Pride Lands) and three Twilight Gems (dropped by Assassin-type Nobodies in The World That Never Was). If all goes well, I should be able to finish this next time I start playing.
25. Enter Kingdom Hearts for the final showdown with Xemnas.

And all this before September 1st. Hoo boy.

Until next time...
