Regarding PM:TTYD,
There is a way to beat the last boss (or the entire last area) only using 1 turn each battle. You better be damn good at action commands though, because if you screw up you die a 1-hit KO death. I don't recommend this for your first playthrough though, as it's somewhat anti-climatic.
I'm sure there are plenty of guides around that give many different recommendations for your stats and items in PP:TTYD
