Once you have full control of the airship, you will find Dark Valefor guarding the entrance to Besaid Village. As soon as you step onto the screen with Besaid Village, a summoner will call for Dark Valefor, triggering the battle.

Dark Valefor is definitely the easiest out of the Dark Aeons, as she only has 800,000 HP and doesn’t have much in the way of any menacing moves. In fact, she can’t even break the damage limit of 9,999 with her attacks, outside of the Energy Blast Overdrive. Dark Valefor has a basic physical attack, plus she can also use Sonic Wings to inflict a weak delay. Energy Ray is considered magical damage for Dark Valefor, so you can minimize its damage by increasing your magic defense, using Shell or casting Focus five times. Her Overdrive, Energy Blast, will always deal around 50,000 damage, so either use Auto-Life or have an Aeon tank the hit.

Dark Valefor can be considered a good test for the rest of the Aeons, since she is pretty basic and none of her moves have any ailments attached, unlike later Dark Aeons. Rikku’s Hyper Mighty G Mix can be used at the beginning to ensure Auto-Life and some other buffs, in case you are taking major damage or want to facetank Energy Blast with your party. Both Protect and Shell will be good in this battle, as well as Auto-Phoenix and Auto-Haste. If you are having any trouble with connecting hits, then remember that Overdrives cannot miss.
