Strategy

Meatshielding is useless, if not for the Shadow Boxer Ks and the Dark Otters. Island, Crazed Fish and Jamiera are... well, if you don't use them, you're going to have an awful experience. Bahamut is a win/lose. You never know if he's going to attack in time. Consider also that he gets knocked back easily, so it's extremely dangerous to use him.

In fact, Gentleman Bros. attacks at a pretty slow rate, so this leaves you the Shadow Boxer Ks and the Dark Otters as main threats. Bring some meatshields to stop Gentleman Bros., then spam Cats that do good area damage to kill the Black enemies. Having dual UFOs, Jamiera Cat, Crazed Titan Cat, and Dancing Flasher Cats will help you plenty. When the Black enemies have been killed, take this opportunity to damage Gentleman Bros. Bring any Uber Rare Cats with long range (longer than 500) that you have.
