The one other fight with Lavos you can get into is the one you're expected to lose, when Zeal commands Lavos to attack you when you reach the end of the Ocean Palace and before Crono dies. Lavos will be much stronger than normal and unless you're in a New Game + you'll likely have no protection against chaos or other status ailments. After you defeat the first form however, the rest of the battles proceed as usual.

For information on fighting Lavos, see [[Chrono Trigger/Bosses|Bosses]]. In general it's best to wait until the New Game + to try for the endings so you can have some of the best equipment in the game, it would require an incredible amount of levelling up without it. The best way to challenge Lavos to get one of the endings is normally through the right gate at the millennial fair.

If you're going to be going through a game of Chrono Trigger and trying to pick up as many endings as possible, one thing you can do as soon as you reach the End of Time is take the bucket to battle through all of Lavos's outer forms, and once you go inside the shell a time gate will send you back to the End of Time where your game can proceed as usual. This means that you'll only have to battle through Lavos's outer forms once for all the endings you want to get in your save file, since you can just resume your fight after the outer shell by going to the End of Time. Note that Lavos's outer form being gone holds whether you challenge Lavos at the Black Omen, End of Time, or right telepad at the fair, but you can still crash the Epoch into Lavos and fight the battle at the Ocean Palace you're meant to lose.

In all these variations, Crono will wake up to find out his stay of execution has been canceled. He'll visit the castle to learn that Lucca did a little temporal tampering to bring her ancestors and descendents to the castle to show the king all they've accomplished. Crono will be thanked as a hero, and Crono and Marle will get to wander around the Millennial Fair during the Moonlight Parade together in the evening.  After doing a lap around the track, head to Lucca's time machine and you'll say goodbye to each member of your party, including Magus of course, and you'll decide that the entity you talked about must be at peace as well.

The twist to this variation of the ending is that Crono's cat(s) will run away because he hasn't been feeding them (no way to avoid this, although you can have up to 15 cats if you do feed them and win another at the fair), and Crono's Mom will run in the portal after them and disappear. After saying goodbye to the king you'll spend the ending soaring around in the Epoch, viewing some scenes from each time period you visited.
