If you do not, either leave now and buy one or customize it yourself using 1 Return Sphere. There is one reason for doing this. The Great Malboro here will 1) always Ambush you and 2) always use Bad Breath on an Ambush. This is near survivable when used normally but when the first turn is always it, you have absolutely no warning and can end up with a Game Over before you've even realized it. With First Strike, especially on Tidus, you can have your whole party escape before it gets that chance and save you from Game Over; otherwise, switch Tidus in and Flee, or try and Escape. If you absolutely have to capture Great Malboro it is a very good idea to do so either by having a character with Confuseproof and Berserkproof (or Ribbon) on their armor to save themselves from losing control or to go to Sin and capture them there instead. However, this is not to say that the Great Malboro is the only monster you will come to hate in Omega Ruins. There are many more annoying status-inducing enemies that you will encounter. The following is a list of enemies from elsewhere in the game that you will also encounter, and if captured count towards their respective areas:

Having a party member with First Strike use Provoke will also prevent the Great Malboro from using Bad Breath.  As long as said party member stays in the battle you can fight the Great Malboro as you would any other fiend.  However, this is not to say that the Great Malboro is the only monster you will come to hate in Omega Ruins.
