Strategy:
This is a two-phase fight that requires careful management of your turns and resources.
Phase 1 (Shadow Rise): Shadow Rise will use various elemental attacks and can inflict status ailments. She will also use 'Analyze' to learn your party's weaknesses. After taking some damage, she will become invulnerable and summon 'Teddie'.
- Focus on dealing consistent damage with your strongest physical and elemental attacks.
- Keep your HP up and cure any status ailments.
- When she becomes invulnerable, prepare for the next phase.
Phase 2 (Teddie): You must defeat Teddie to make Shadow Rise vulnerable again. Teddie is weak to Electricity.
- Have Kanji use Zio/Mazio and the Protagonist use an Elec Persona to exploit Teddie's weakness.
- Use '1 More' turns and All-Out Attacks to quickly take him down.
Phase 3 (Shadow Rise - Vulnerable): Once Teddie is defeated, Shadow Rise becomes vulnerable again. However, she will now use 'Supreme Insight' to predict your attacks, making it difficult to hit her. She will also use powerful Almighty attacks.
- When she uses 'Supreme Insight', Guard with all party members on the next turn. This will prevent her from predicting your attacks and dealing massive damage.
- After guarding, unleash your strongest attacks.
- Keep your HP high and continue to use buffs/debuffs.
- Repeat the Guard-Attack cycle until she is defeated.
