Moveset

Megaton Punch Kills a party member instantly
Also used as a counter attack.
Flare Deals heavy non-elemental damage to its target.
Earth eater only uses this while it's knocked down and it casts it on itself to bounce it back to your party via it's permanent reflect status

Strategy

A maxed out sphere grid is necessary for all Original Creation monsters. A maxed out magic defense can endure Earth Eater's Flare so it is necessary to knock him down quickly. Earth eater gets knocked down after taking 100,000 damage. Once earth eater is down, keep unleashing quick hits to win the fight.

Fortune Sphere Farming

Another strategy is to cast Regen on Wakka and set his overdrive mode to Loner. Quickly knock down Earth Eater and have the two other party members run away. This will allow Wakka to quickly fill his party gauge by defending since Earth Eater will not use offensive moves while knocked down(except for its Flare counter attacks). With this strategy, taking down earth eater becomes extremely easy.
