Ultimate Weapon | Final Fantasy VII Remake Trophy
Defeat the Pride and Joy Prototype
The Pride and Joy Prototype can be fought in the Shinra Combat Simulator in Chapter 17 towards the end of the "Three-Person Team vs Top Secrets" challenge.
This optional boss is relatively easier than the other summons you will have to fight before it - especially the fight against Bahamut and Ifrit.

Pride and Joy Prototype
Large-scale robotic weapon. Development was discontinued because it was deemed too dangerous. Chadley used the project data to recreate a prototype within virtual reality.
Best tip for this fight: Continue avoiding the boss attacks, deal continuous damage to its legs, and keep healing the team.
Reward: Gotterdammerung
Enter battle with a full limit break gauge.
