If your using Naruto You just keep using rasengan barrage.
Here's what I did:
First do a Practice Battle in Free Battle using Naruto(Normal), and Pain as your opponent with the Hard Difficulty setting in "Site of the Catastrophic Planetary Devastation" Battle Field
(NOTE: if you haven't unlocked Pain, or Sage Naruto Yet, then do a bunch of free battles to boost your Storm Points(SP) high enough to unlock them)
Then Try and Win that Battle with the Most HP left over if you can.
Do this a few times until you feel comfortable fighting him as normal Naruto.
Then, Go back to Ultimate Mission Mode, and in the First Part of the Boss Battle(Sage Mode), Don't stop attacking or substituting for even a second being as that will allow Pain to pummel you good! When you've temporarily knocked him down and gotten some distance between you and him, Try taking that time to recharge your Chakra as much as possible before Pain can launch a counter attack because You're going to need it!
Also, try and save your chakra for substitutions rather than Ninjutsu if you can. It will make winning a bit easier.
Button Input for Sage Mode Battle:
- Right Arrow + Left Arrow
- X + Triangle + Circle
- Down Arrow + Triangle + Circle
- Circle + Circle + Circle
- Triangle + Circle
- Square + Right Arrow + Circle
- Left Arrow + Right Arrow
Then, in the 2nd part of the Boss Battle(Nine Tails(Sixth Tail Mode)) Rush around the Battle field avoiding an Blasting Pain's Boulder Attacks with Square Button. Then when Pain gets Exhausted, rush up to him and press Circle Button when in Range to launch a Powerful Slash Attack on him.
Repeat this multiple times until the Button Input is prompt.
Button Input for Nine Tails Battle:
- Circle
- Triangle(Mash)
- Triangle + Triangle + Square + Circle
- Square
And Finally, in the 3rd part of the Boss Battle(Normal Naruto), Again, Don't stop attacking or substituting for even a second being as that will allow Pain to pummel you good! When you've temporarily knocked him down and gotten some distance between you and him, Again, Try taking that time to recharge your Chakra as much as possible before Pain can launch a counter attack because You're going to need it!
Again, try and save your chakra for substitutions rather than Ninjutsu if you can.
Then when Pain gets Exhausted, Quickly run up to him and and press Circle button to start the First Button Input:
- Triangle + Triangle + Circle
- Circle (Mash)
Do the same thing as you did before in the First Part of the 3rd Battle with Naruto Normal.
Then press the Following Button Input to Finish off Pain once and For all:
- Up Arrow + X
- X + Square + Triangle + Circle
- Circle (Mash)
NOTE: "Mash" means you tap that same Button Over and Over to fill up the Gauge.
Also, I hope adding the Button Input for each Movie Sequence helps too.
Honestly, I can't think of any other helpful advice to give for winning this Battle, but I hope it helps you somehow.
