Actually, each one of her top tires has 1 summon. Though her physical attributes are greater than her magic ability, so I wouldn't label her as a summoner, also considering the gods are her only offensive magic. And I call it sd3. I just mentioned that for people who are familier w/ the series, but never heard of sd3 since it never saw a U.S. release :(

...
What about Misha or Aurica from Ar Tonelico?
I know, I know, it's a sexual innuendo game all over(and I mean ALL OVER), but still with those songs of theirs, they might be threats considering how they make even some of the tougher bosses in the game go away rally quickly.

Considering Cloud can learn all elements and have 9999 health, I think he's a healthy candidate.  Of course, you have to transpose the abilities into some kind of neutral world, but Crono really isn't all that tough.  He's mostly fast, and has a couple spells under his belt.

And has the ability to handle a ginormous, parasitic, world destroying, inter-planetary threat single-handedly. Yeah, he's not so special...>_>

The fact of the matter is that besides his Limit Breaks Cloud doesn't have any unique abilities that anyone couldn't learn...Materia=CC Elements=Magicite (although, in actuality, not EVERYONE in FFVI's cast could equip Magicite like those other examples...)

Not single handedly, good sir, He had six people fighting with him.

But you can only have two party members with you in the final battle...and I was also referencing the fact that right after you defeat Lavos in the beginning of New Game+ you can fight him solo.

Don't you have to have Marle in the party as well?

No, it's possible, just instead of going to the left telepod, go to the portal on the right one.

Really...
It's good to support your opinion but I have to question just how much you know about Crono if you actually said that.

but Crono really isn't all that tough.  He's mostly fast, and has a couple spells under his belt.

He has only a couple spells under his belt? He's got lightning charged attacks once you learn lightning magic, lightning, lightning 2, he can revive people, increase his speed 10 fold for Confuse, and he has LUMINAIRE. Luminaire, the nuclear bomb of magic. And that's only a crap amount of crap?

Of course, not everyone likes to read past posts when there is a lot and this IS a pretty popular subject so I guess I'll resay what i said earlier(since you probably missed it)why something like that isn't good. Cloud's best move is Omnislash correct? How well will you fair at swinging a sword at an explosion that is five feet from your face? It's not gonna get you anywhere. Same rules apply when facing Crono's magic, especially Luminaire. Not to mention Crono isn't just fast, he's also gotta be strong to lug around swords(even lighter swords are kinda hefty to swing that fast)at such high speeds. Not to mention with his sword skills, if you really want to go by the skills they have in the game, Crono has a massive number of sword moves and forms of striking, and although Cloud has a large number of them, Crono's got more.

Also I'd like to point out the speed thing, if Crono is fast like you say, it doesn't matter how strong you are! With speed, you can outrun all attacks and guarentee success with every strike! Also made a number of points about this as well.

Sorry if I seemed like I was biting your head off, but seriously, you are on a Chrono fan site claiming Crono only has a couple of moves under his belt. You had to see it coming from somebody.

And if Crono's fast, I'm sure taking out Cloud would be no problem considering that he carries a huge sword which would have to slow him down quite a bit.

The one thing about Crono's speed, though is that it doesn't really transfer into his spellcasting speed...His Magic is so internalized that he has to focus his inner strength first...

Actually, Cloud can swing his sword as though it weighed as much as an average sword. That's part of what makes it recognized as so special(if it actually affected him, there would be no way someone as scrawny as him could carry that thing).

The one thing about Crono's speed, though is that it doesn't really transfer into his spellcasting speed...His Magic is so internalized that he has to focus his inner strength first...

True, but it's still about the same speed as Cloud's attack unleashing. Maybe a second slower, but even then there is still the time of Cloud dashing straight toward Crono(Since Crono isn't going to let Cloud stand right in front of him and not punch him in the face and vice versa)so by the time Cloud reaches Crono, their attacks will go off at the same time so in affect that practically cancels itself out(there are situational exceptions, so it only practically cancels, not fully denied that rule).
