Ability Selection

Notes on enemy AI:	While in a given battle stage, enemies will attempt to use First Choice abilities. If impossible (due to focus, silencing or cooldowns), they will proceed to Second Choice, etc. Cooldown for enemies indicates how often abilities may be used, and is effectively one less than for Sonny (IE cooldown of 2 can be used every second turn) Enemy-targetting abilities have a chance of targetting the weakest enemy rather than targetting at random; this is given in the Attributes section above. Ally-targetting abilities always target the weakest targetable ally. Selection within a category is random unless indicated. All exceptions noted below.
Battle Stages	First Choice	Second Choice	Third Choice
First round of battle	Fire Shield
HP above 2%	Fire Strike	Auto Swing
HP between 2% and 1%	Auto Swing Fire Strike
HP below 1%	Auto Swing

Tactics

Psychological

• Have Overdrive as a passive ability.
• Have much higher vitality than both your allies for this to work.
• Use Traumatize+High Voltage+High Voltage+Shock Coma+Shock Coma+High Voltage+Retrograde. This will destroy him in one shot. Keep Veradux on Phalanx Mode to avoid self-destruction from Overdrive.
• Alternatively, use Shock Coma throughout the battle. If the Fire Shield buff is in effect, you can skip all the moves while Shock Coma is in effect. After the Fire Shield buff has worn off, continue to use Shock Coma but use either Electrical Storm or Shock Therapy while Shock Coma is in effect.
• Alternatively use Ultimatum and defeat him with Epiphany+Insecurity+Dark Infusion+Dark Echoes+Implosion. His Fire Shield buff does not prevent Damage Over Time

Biological

• Crystallize+Corrosion+Toxicant Form+Shadow Blend+Agile Exposure+Withdrawal. This will one shot Yosuke, this may be extremely easy, although the difficulty of defeating the North Guardian and the South Guardian as a biological seems to make up for this.
• As a Toxicant, you have the advantage. Constantly Crystallize the Yosuke to keep him stunned and apply multiple Envenoms, Infects and Corrosions in-between. Yosuke will only wake up for 1 turn to receive massive Damage over time before you stun him again, leaving him unable to react.

Hydraulic

• Fully upgrading Mind Freeze and Flash Freeze allows them to be equipped more than once to the action bar. it is possible to keep Yosuke in a lock with these moves that stops Yosuke from using Fire Strike. Veradux on Phalanx Mode should be able to heal the minor damage from Auto Swing. Damage over time does not seem to be affected by "The Immortal Flame", so use Hypothermia and/or Decimate and Wreck to damage him. Fully upgrading Lasting Pain is recommended.
