Here's the "official" way to beat Evrae...

HP: 32 000
AP: 5 400
Weakness: None
Steal: Water Gem

Start by having Tidus cast Slow on the fiend, and then cast Haste on himself and Rikku. This increases their number of turns throughout the battle, and makes it much easier to use the Trigger Command to communicate with Cid.

Look carefully at the list of character turns on the right side of the screen. When Tidus or Rikku's turn is right before Cid's turn, use the Trigger Command to pull the ship away from Evrae. If you can keep the monster at long range until Cid's next turn thereafter, then he will unleash a volley of missiles at Evrae.

The dragon may counter with the Swooping Scythe attack to get close to the ship again. Eventually, Evrae will inhale on one turn and exhale Poison Breath on its next turn. Whenever the party is impaired with status ailments, have Rikku use an Al Bhed Potion. Evrae will then cast Haste on itself, thus nullifying Slow spells. To counter Evrae's enhanced speed, have Tidus cast Haste on as many characters as possible.

Your choice of party members depends on whether Evrae is close or far away. When Evrae is near the ship, use physical attacks with characters like Tidus, Auron, Kimahri, and Rikku. When Evrae is far away, use Lulu and Wakka. But since Evrae halves all magical damage, Lulu will be mostly ineffective unless she knows Firaga, Waterga, Thundaga, or Blizzaga. Kimahri can also use his Lancet ability to siphon some HP from the dragon.

You'll need a healthy supply of Al Bhed Potions and Mega Phoenixes to keep your characters alive so that you can collect as much AP as possible.

... Good luck!
