I find it kinda funny that the animation that plays when Lavos Core, the FINAL BOSS, dies it's the animation of a commom enemy -and not the animation that plays on a Boss Fight, which flashes the screen 3 times and the enemy slowly fades away -
Most JRPGs I play usually features some godlike being spouting stuff about "humanity bad" or whatever. Lavos is some creepy gigantic parasite feeding off from the planet for countless generations. That's metal as hell.
@@Blahander This is from 2013. In late 07/08 people were usually suggesting to use that /&N=18 or whatever little code it was thing that would enable 480p, somehow it worked. I think maybe 480p was in some kind of beta stage, can't remember. Everyone was doing it though Nowadays a lot of old videos of mine, any from 2009 or sooner, many of my 480p videos were downgraded to 240p, and many 360p videos suffered the same fate, same goes for many other people. Since this was 360p in 2013 it wasn't downgraded.
Yes. He's more intelligent than anyone can imagine. And in Chrono Cross, he's PISSED that a group of "cattle" like the players wanted to stop him from doing what he felt was "natural".
Aparently, it appears to be just a parasyte driven by instincts alone, and considering how its species aparently records the DNA of every life form of their host planet, maybe evolution is what lead to it hiding as the "uninportant helper" as everyone always attacks the big bad guy as it's the one that matters. Then my theory is that in Chrono Cross, with Schala being consumed by its remains, gave it a significant power boost, since such an item as the Chrono Cross is required to truly beat it, along with some sort of basic concience trough Schala's corrupted mind as seen in the added fight on the DS Version
No. Lavos is a non-sentient, but UNIMAGINABLY POWERFUL lifeform. Which makes this game an even more grandiose masterpiece, since the "revenge" everyone and specially Magus wanted to accomplish against Lavos, was meaningless because the object of their hatred wasn't even self-concious nor had even a spark of intelligence at all - it only acted on instinct.
@@kylestubbs8867 Lavos is an abominable creature with the combined DNA of everything that has ever lived in Earth. With that in mind, the variety of instinct-based actions Lavos can take is virtually unlimited. Thus, having the biggest remaining part of itself as a decoy makes absolute sense since there must be (or must have been) creatures that have used the same survival tactics as Lavos.
Yeah, it's not some malevolent force like in other Nintendo or Square Enix properties, it's just a powerful parasitic animal doing what it does: survive
of course, however, in our own human eyes, they're are considered evil since they're parasites on our own perspective, since they're stealing our own resources for their survival.
I’ll never forget the first time I heard that burning sound of the right bit and lavos core dying. I screamed with joy. I’d say over my life time, I’ve probably beat this game about 20 times full playthrough. I’ve gone years without playing, but then ended up going back to it many years later.
still dreaming with an HD 3D version of VI but until now the maximum we get was ghost train, Ultros, Doma kingdom and Kefka battle on FF XIV: Stormblood
Did anyone notice the leftover bit at the end when the screen is fading to white. The frozen flame in Chrono Cross is a piece of lavos. I wonder if that was it.
I just used this exact strategy and I had absolutely no trouble beating Lavos and I’ve beaten this game more than I can count since I first owned it on the SNES back in 1994 or ‘95. I used to use Crono, Marle, and Frog exclusively for this fight. And though I always won, I wanted a better way to do it. This is it, for sure. Bravo
Me too. This is my favorite game of all time. I have it on my iPhone and used your strategy yesterday. I was struggling and I think this version is harder than the original SNES version. Or maybe it’s just me 😀
Fun Times I know I’m late but what did you mean by that? Thought of playing again and would like to know if they’ve done something different in their updates
@@coballard5334 If I am remembering correctly, Chrono Trigger WAS the original concept for FF7. I might be misremembering that, though, so take it with a pinch of salt.
Very very impressive work my friend! Great job on beating this game! I hope either one day I can find a DS copy of Chrono Trigger for myself, or it comes to the Switch
Still today thats the best game ever designed and thought off... especially when Im inspired by all the concepts behind the story and how it's the player's choice who makes decision for the game until the end... because it's all the possibilities what if we could prevent apocalypse then it must be trigger in form of a memory and at the moment when it can be triggered via gate key . you cant change the future so each era is triggered by the player because it never existed before, only in dream or nightmare... thats why thereis multiple endings. I just find out if you look carefully right after you beat lavos core, everything vanish but returns in silouhette, lavos core is everything and must repeat the cycle each time so thats why you wake up in your bed for the ending we wanted... i love this game so much.
The Lavos boss fight perhaps is the inspiration for the final fight with Ultimecia from Final Fantasy 8. They are both set on a time-compressed location.
It's a glitch. Someone else could probably explain it better, but from what I remember hearing, the left pod and other enemies that can be "revived" don't really die, they're just invisible and cannot be targeted. Making them invisible and then visible again is easier programmatically than erasing them and then adding them in again. This normally wouldn't be an issue, but that visual effect accidentally reveals it. The right pod being defeated triggers the other pods to actually die before moving to the end sequence, but since the left pod was invisible, it is ignored and doesn't die.
I beat lavos with Crono, Lucca and Marle I wasn't expecting the lavos core to die when it did, i was focusing damage on the healer core and the central core They must've shared damage or something
I wish Square Enix would do an HD remake of this game for the PS4/PS5 and for the Switch. It's my favorite RPG of all time. Phenomenal video!! 😎👍🏆 I liked and subscribed!! Have an awesome day!!
just beat chrono trigger on my Wii holy shit this was such a good rpg. I actually played it blind too, so I’m even happier about that, the experience was like no other *by the way… this boss had my adrenaline PUMPING*
I beat Lavos yesterday using Crono, Marle and Robo at levels 50-55. It was hard af and I forgot to buy Athenian Water, so I couldn't let any of them die.
Wanna know the funniest coolest thing about Lavos final form? Lavos has adapted to all your boss fights, Lavos is not the middle monster, he's the right jelly fish balloon, you can kill the middle one and the boss still goes on until the right one is dead, it has adapted to all the boss fights you've done that you will try to kill the side ones first
I'm not 100% if this is all versions but leaving the central body alive makes it where the defenses on the right core never come back up. That's my experience at least. It's best to ignore the body part entirely. Only focusing on the real core when the defenses go down and the left one when it's revived.
I don't know about you guys, but that fight personally gave me some fear when I did my first Crono trigger run you feel like it's up to you to save time and reality lol
Maybe is a year late.... I played the android version and I thought it's gonna be easy cause it's an RPG but actually is difficult to play with touch controls is more slower and imprecise so I can't even beat magus first fight! I used a controller to beat the game like the old times
I’ve always loved Lavos in the game. It was already cool as this destructive monster, but finding out that inside it was actually this alien that is so strange and without explanation was so awesome! I’ve always had a theory that the monster itself isn’t fake, but rather the inner mech just controls it by its nerves and essentially puppets it, hence why there’s still the Lavos spawn
So what if Lavos is actually parasitizing the creature, that makes the shell and he is a hyperparasite. Like his species evolved to take over the bodies of those things, because it was a good survival tactic to travel through space? So that creature also lays its offspring, but the parasite already places his egg inside, so the spawn get infected right away. Over time such bonds might result in both creatures not being able to survive without each other like a portuguese man o war
My team has aaaallwaayyss been Crono, Marle, and Ayla. sometimes i might swap out ayla for someone else for fun, but my strongest team is crono marle and ayla. once you hit the 3rd turn, it's all over. nothing can beat you once you've got haste on all 3 characters. you start spitting out falcon hits twice for every single enemy turn. and with marle on the heals, you're invincible. that, and it just bothers me if i don't have ayla charming power tabs/speed tabs/rare items like nova armor etc off of monsters. specifically, the ocean palace MUST be done with ayla. if you don't charm stuff in there, you lose out on sooooo muuuuuuucccccchhhhh powerful loot. in ocean palace alone you'll find enough speed tabs to get 4 characters to **speed just get a couple gold studs and you'll never run out of mana i ranted, didn't i..
I wonder if lavos in 1999 AD is actually the covid-19 in 2020 AD now, spreading danger all over the world... his shell looks similar to the coronavirus
@@berkjoga Crono, Marle, Magus. Use items to reduce MP consumption and damage increase. Ice Sword 2 will one shot the left pod. Confuse will also if you have Crono Prism'd out. Then pound with Ice Sword 2 and Dark Matter.
lembro até hoje de quando zerei esse jogo hehe, no meu ps3 usando o Snesx9 como emulador haha ótimas memórias e que jogão! Meu time foi; Chrono, Ayla e o Robô!
I just tried the Crono solo end for the first time ever and was on my way to what seemed like a convincing win. I have been playing this game for 25 years and I swear to god, its the first time Lavos core has ever bitch slapped me. I had never seen that before I was a little stunned. Before I could elixir, he did it twice and I was dead. lv2 52, with stars on spd and mg def. also the haste helm. I was getting 5-6 x confused before taking a hit....those flipper slaps though....damn
The game: "no, stop using that attack! Destroy the left one first! The right pod is actually his true core, it's the one you have to defeat in order to kill him!" Me with magus in the party: haha dark matter go brrr
I hate that boss right now, mostly because it takes so long. I had beat it the first time with Chrono Ayla and whatever the mechanic girls name was. The second time I beat him with the princess and Chrono. The third time I lost against him with Frog, the princess and Robo The fouth time I lost against him with Frog, the princess and the new game plus Ayla for whatever reason. Not sure if they say something that interessting but I thought it couldn't be difficult this time. I think the weakest was the left part, the most HP had the right part and every part could reanimate the lost parts right?
Personally, this is the hardest final boss I ever encounter in any JRPG game! Chrono's level is 48, Aya 47, Marle 46, should I keep trying or level up?
Dude I defeated the boss and I thought thank god. Then I found out he was dead and I'm like motherfucker. I fought him with Lenna, Robo, and Chrono and loss. I dont have magus because I decided to kill him so i could see what would happen lol. Boy I fucked up bad because Magus has really goofld magic damage.
Hello man! Im playing for the first time... I cant beat lavos so far and im at lvl 45.. i didnt do the sidequests before lavos... Whats the green aura of ayla? And what lvl were you and equipment of the video? Thanks for responding
If I remember correctly my setup was: Crono Level 66 - Rainbow - Prism Helm - Moon Armor - Prism Specs Frog Level 65 - Masamune - Prism Helm - Nova Armor - Hero Medal Ayla Level 65 - Fist - Prism Helm - Prism Dress - Charm Top And probably the green aura is from the Prism Dress. It was long time ago and I forgot most of the game
You have no idea how badly I want them to do a Chrono Trigger raid series in FFXIV and have our Warriors of Light fighting these forms of Lavos as the finale to that... they JUST did an FF4 Zeromus fight too with the latest patch 6.5 complete with remixes so it gives me hope because that was on the Anthologies PS1 Disc with Chrono Trigger as well if anyone remembers that
If you substituted the three heroes with Amy Rose, Shadow, and Sonic... ...then Lavos with Black Doom... ...you'd have yourself the climax to #SonicMovie3! =D
the lavos pliot reminds me of the QU from all tomorrows those little things that fly beside him those are his bio weapons he uses for combat just like the space alien dragonflies the QU do
I never understood why the right Lavos bit had the most health. It was like, "shouldn't the programmers have made the middle big guy have the most health and most power?"
frozen222 the right lavos bit is actually lavos himself. The creature in the middle and the left lavos bit are just decoys. In my opinion this is a very clever strategy that lavos has come up with.
+boss 219 seems a bit anticlimactic doesn't it? Clever yes, but kinda lame from a player's standpoint. Little floating robotic thing is Lavos, I don't like it.
I wish to ask what lvl you chareters are you made something looks easy...then again I remember my first time through and walking into that battle way before I needed to 1 hit and the party was dead lmao so I went and grinded another 20 lvls and tried again with improved success I love this game
kzbxvz It only has like 30000 hp on the biggest one, and I could deal about 2000 with falcon strike and about 3500 with the triple attack, so with decent strategy it was really not too bad
I love how lavos screams in the final boss theme, you can tell he's getting desperate over a bunch of insects being able to hurt him so badly.
Toriyama and his insectoid life destroyers lol.
and laser nipples in his second to last form
Ahaha played DQ XI. This is still true.
That point where you go, "yep, this was definitely designed by Toriyama".
Yeah the last true boss is a fusion between jiren and cell

Lavos 2nd form = Cell
3rd final form = deformed version of frieza
WELL Akira Toriyama was involved in this game soo....its normal :p
I think so it s similar 2ndcell
I'd say 2nd form is more akin to Estark/Psaro the Manslayer.
But final can regenerate. You can't even con verse with it... Far more like Boo.
Nope. The Frieza-looking thing is just a decoy.
I love how Frog talks about DNA. Someone has been talking to Lucca.
and Lucca was disgusted by him originally
I dunno, he was never ignorant by any means, but I do fancy that thought!
@@hitkid2456 a knight from the middle ages knowing what DNA is? Not about ignorance it's about anachronism haha.
@@Shirtzm68 Well, he's a time traveler.
i still remember the shock i felt when i found out the last boss is the right pod.
what?
@@hussainakram6823Lavos' true core is the pod/bit in the right side, which only lowers its defense once you defeated the left pod and Lavos
I find it kinda funny that the animation that plays when Lavos Core, the FINAL BOSS, dies it's the animation of a commom enemy -and not the animation that plays on a Boss Fight, which flashes the screen 3 times and the enemy slowly fades away -
Lavos as whole does right after though
Oh that's true... maybe they made it that way to keep the tension and to make us think there is a new boss phase... just maybe
Bueno, Lavos no muere aquí y en su muerte definitiva (en Chrono cross) si muestran como se va desvaneciendo de a poco
the form of lavos before you fight his true form kinda looks like cell.
that would be intentinal the guy who made the charactor modles is the same guy who does the art for DBZ
Yeah, like Imperfect Cell
Pretty much, before Perfect Cell.
I love how the background goes perfectly with the music
Most JRPGs I play usually features some godlike being spouting stuff about "humanity bad" or whatever.
Lavos is some creepy gigantic parasite feeding off from the planet for countless generations. That's metal as hell.
Phantasy Star is much like that (sans the third).

@@Blahander This is from 2013. In late 07/08 people were usually suggesting to use that /&N=18 or whatever little code it was thing that would enable 480p, somehow it worked. I think maybe 480p was in some kind of beta stage, can't remember. Everyone was doing it though

@@Valientlink It's just that even back in 2013, 360p was already obsolete. So I was caught by surprise.
Is Lavos capable of thinking coherently?
I'm just saying, that's a clever way to hide your weakness.
Yes. He's more intelligent than anyone can imagine.

No. Lavos is a non-sentient, but UNIMAGINABLY POWERFUL lifeform.

Before Final Fantasy 8, Chrono Trigger invented the concept of time compression.
The Lavos boss fight perhaps is the inspiration for the final fight with Ultimecia from Final Fantasy 8.
They are both set on a time-compressed location.
It never even occured to me, great komparison
Don't you mean time-kompressed 😂
Someone’s probably mentioned it already, but the description says to watch in 360p for better quality.
We’ve come a long way, eh?
10:28 I wondered why a Lavos pod was there. Was this to imply to that Lavos wasn't truly dead and they were planning a sequel?
Probably, if you consider the dream devourer battle in the Ds version
It's a glitch. Someone else could probably explain it better, but from what I remember hearing, the left pod and other enemies that can be "revived" don't really die, they're just invisible and cannot be targeted.

Lavos 1st Form = JENOVA Synthesis
Lavos 2nd Form = Bizarro Sephiroth...
I used Chrono, Lucca & Magus for this fight. Before I used Frog instead of Chrono and kept dying. -_-
I'm using Chrono, Marle and Frog but I keep dying at the last second :((
@@berkjoga Crono, Marle, Magus. Use items to reduce MP consumption and damage increase. Ice Sword 2 will one shot the left pod. Confuse will also if you have Crono Prism'd out. Then pound with Ice Sword 2 and Dark Matter.
for the 1st part of the battle I literally used luminaire and ethers the whole time
I went with Luminaire and Antipode 3 as my main strats, with Marle and Lucca wearing Gold Studs to reduce their MP consumption by 75%.
@@LordNanfoodle I put Gold Studs on everyone except Crono, which I had Prism Specs
lembro até hoje de quando zerei esse jogo hehe, no meu ps3 usando o Snesx9 como emulador haha ótimas memórias e que jogão! Meu time foi; Chrono, Ayla e o Robô!
Saying hello in 2022!

World Revolution
Jatinder Gill thanks
I just tried the Crono solo end for the first time ever and was on my way to what seemed like a convincing win. I have been playing this game for 25 years and I swear to god, its the first time Lavos core has ever bitch slapped me. I had never seen that before I was a little stunned. Before I could elixir, he did it twice and I was dead. lv2 52, with stars on spd and mg def. also the haste helm. I was getting 5-6 x confused before taking a hit....those flipper slaps though....damn
lavos is the architect while terra is the oracle
The game: "no, stop using that attack! Destroy the left one first! The right pod is actually his true core, it's the one you have to defeat in order to kill him!"
Me with magus in the party: haha dark matter go brrr
I hate that boss right now, mostly because it takes so long.
I had beat it the first time with Chrono Ayla and whatever the mechanic girls name was.
The second time I beat him with the princess and Chrono.
The third time I lost against him with Frog, the princess and Robo
The fouth time I lost against him with Frog, the princess and the new game plus Ayla for whatever reason.
Not sure if they say something that interessting but I thought it couldn't be difficult this time.
I think the weakest was the left part, the most HP had the right part and every part could reanimate the lost parts right?
Personally, this is the hardest final boss I ever encounter in any JRPG game!
Chrono's level is 48, Aya 47, Marle 46, should I keep trying or level up?
Try to level up a little bit, maybe around 55 to 60. And beside level, to beat this boss you need some good equipments too
Dude I defeated the boss and I thought thank god. Then I found out he was dead and I'm like motherfucker. I fought him with Lenna, Robo, and Chrono and loss. I dont have magus because I decided to kill him so i could see what would happen lol. Boy I fucked up bad because Magus has really goofld magic damage.
Why can't i remember this Lenna person at all?
Great description.
Hello man! Im playing for the first time... I cant beat lavos so far and im at lvl 45.. i didnt do the sidequests before lavos... Whats the green aura of ayla? And what lvl were you and equipment of the video? Thanks for responding
If I remember correctly my setup was:
Crono
Level 66
- Rainbow
- Prism Helm
- Moon Armor
- Prism Specs
Frog
Level 65
- Masamune
- Prism Helm
- Nova Armor
- Hero Medal
Ayla
Level 65
- Fist
- Prism Helm
- Prism Dress
- Charm Top
And probably the green aura is from the Prism Dress. It was long time ago and I forgot most of the game
@@Anoname112 thank you so mucho for telling me Man. Years can pass but this game Is for eternity! ITS so cool
Anyone else think this theme would fit as the final boss theme for FFIV's Zeromus?
10:26 Recreation of everything again but this time for the epilogue you fought for. :D
lavos is the eternal death angel
You have no idea how badly I want them to do a Chrono Trigger raid series in FFXIV and have our Warriors of Light fighting these forms of Lavos as the finale to that... they JUST did an FF4 Zeromus fight too with the latest patch 6.5 complete with remixes so it gives me hope because that was on the Anthologies PS1 Disc with Chrono Trigger as well if anyone remembers that
I was 8 when my elder brother played Chrono, so I never know the final boss, but wtf… that’s Cell
If you substituted the three heroes with Amy Rose, Shadow, and Sonic...
...then Lavos with Black Doom...
...you'd have yourself the climax to #SonicMovie3! =D
the lavos pliot reminds me of the QU from all tomorrows those little things that fly beside him those are his bio weapons he uses for combat just like the space alien dragonflies the QU do
I never understood why the right Lavos bit had the most health. It was like, "shouldn't the programmers have made the middle big guy have the most health and most power?"
frozen222 the right lavos bit is actually lavos himself. The creature in the middle and the left lavos bit are just decoys. In my opinion this is a very clever strategy that lavos has come up with.
+boss 219 seems a bit anticlimactic doesn't it? Clever yes, but kinda lame from a player's standpoint. Little floating robotic thing is Lavos, I don't like it.
frozen222 oh really? I still think this fight is epic despite finding out who lavos really is 😂😂
For me is kinda dissapoiting xd
That's... kinda the point. It's like a final gambit on Lavos' part, hiding behind what the player thinks the final boss battle should be.

I wish to ask what lvl you chareters are you made something looks easy...then again I remember my first time through and walking into that battle way before I needed to 1 hit and the party was dead lmao so I went and grinded another 20 lvls and tried again with improved success I love this game
If I remember correctly:
Crono Level 66
- Rainbow
- Prism Helm
- Moon Armor
- Prism Specs
Frog Level 65
- Masamune
- Prism Helm
- Nova Armor
- Hero Medal
Ayla Level 65
- Fist
- Prism Helm
- Prism Dress
- Charm Top
The fact that the left bit's shadow appears after defeating Lavos... Does that mean that he didn't really die?
Believe it or not, lavos has 10 freaking phrases. There's 2 more for the lavos core. Also, you will need to heal alot in the game
It would’ve taken mere seconds to beat this guy if he used triple tech with these 3
The only part where I spammed luminaire spell 😂
It looks so easy. In fact, I had serious problem fighting him...
The key is to have strong enough characters with strong enough equips, and effective strategy
@@Anoname112 i fought him with Marle and Frog and the strongest Chrono's spell
@@rafachrzaszcz6997 probably your lvl is not enough to face him and your weapon are so weak you should do some quest
@@jeromedado7416 I've done almost all the quests, had 999HP, played with Crono, Marle and Frog. I finally finished him, but it was difficult.
5:25
Krilin : ese es el verdadero Lavos ?? se hizo pequeño y se ve inofensivo ,parece como si su poder hubiera disminuido !!!
Watch in 360p hot sh**!
I can't tell what lavish face is in 3rd form is it a old man's face?
lavos I mean
+Shreklove Donkay I think it's not looks like a human's face, just an random alien's face
LASERS FROM HIS AREOLA
Is it just me or does the pool around Proto-Lavos look like chocolate chip ice cream/cookies and cream?
Hahaha, now that you mention it I can see it too
Crono Ayla Marle Final kick does hella damage
You should listen to the final battle song while in a shroom trip
This is edited or cheat, in real life up to an hour long final battle before you defeat Lavos, great music as always in a classic Japanese RPG :)
kzbxvz Idk, maybe I was over leveled at 51 but it took me about this long when I did it, not an hour or anything near it
You cheated like anybody else I suppose but this battle can't just take under 10 minutes pronto!!!
kzbxvz It only has like 30000 hp on the biggest one, and I could deal about 2000 with falcon strike and about 3500 with the triple attack, so with decent strategy it was really not too bad
*It's me, your best friend.
L A V O S C O R E.
Uh, Lavos ain't no friend.. at all. Period. Schala would even confirm you that he's far more ruthless than evil Asriel.
