Easy enough, all you do is 5 Aura Burst Smashes (R then Triangle) and

Challenge 09 - 0011
=======================================================================

*Don't take damage within a given time! (Beginner)*
Time: 15 seconds

This one can be hard for some people and easy for others. What I did 
was just go in circles around the enemy using the control stick and
holding it down. This will cause your opponent to keep attacking the 
air while you go around him.

=======================================================================
Challenge 10 - 0012
=======================================================================

*Don't take damage within a given time! (Middle)*
Time: 30 seconds

air while you go around him.

air while you go around him.

Challenge 12 - 0014
=======================================================================

Time: 60 seconds

This one can be hard for some people and easy for others. What I did 
was just go in circles around the enemy using the control stick and
holding it down. This will cause your opponent to keep attacking the 
air while you go around him.

=======================================================================
Challenge 13 - 0015
=======================================================================

*Use a Guard Crush!*

This is really easy. Just keep Smashing and Rushing until the opponents
guard is crushed.

=======================================================================
Challenge 14 - 0016
=======================================================================

*Defeat the opponent using only Guarding!*

Not that hard but can be tedious. All you have to do is Charge up to 
max and then do an Aura Burst Smash and right away unleash an ultimate 
attack. You will have to repeat it twice. You should be able to do it
with just enough time.

=======================================================================

*Defeat the opponent within 90 seconds!*

This one is really easy just fight normally and you'll win with plenty
of time to spare.

=======================================================================
Challenge 20 - 0022
=======================================================================

*Defeat the opponent within 60 seconds!*

This one can be hard if you mess up during the fight. The key to this
one is you must land an ultimate attack to gain an easy chance of 
defeating the enemy. If you land an ultimate you pretty much should win
if you don't mess up. Just fight really agressive after your ultimate 
attack.

=======================================================================
Challenge 21 - 0023
=======================================================================

*Win with a perfect!* 

This can be hard. Fight really really carefully and dodge any attack 
that might come your way, especially those darn Ki blasts. 

An easy way to do it is keep flying around in circles and blast the 
enemy with a special attack while he is in delay from his attack.

=======================================================================
Challenge 22 - 0024
=======================================================================

*Win with less than 50% health!*

This one is really easy just fight as you normally would and you should
have no problem winning.

=======================================================================
Challenge 23 - 0025
=======================================================================

*Win with less than 30% health!*

This one is not that hard. Fight with caution and dodge attacks thrown
at you. Try to unleash an ultimate attack to gain the upper hand.

=======================================================================
Challenge 24 - 0026
=======================================================================

*Win with less than 10% health!*

This one is practically like *Win with a Perfect!* but you can take a
few hits. Fight really really carefully and dodge any attack that might 
come your way, especially those darn Ki blasts.

Finish off with an ultimate when enemy has 50% of second HP bar.

=======================================================================
Challenge 25 - 0027
=======================================================================

out.

=======================================================================

=======================================================================
Challenge 32 - 0034

the exact same time. So when he tries to grab you press (X+Square)

=======================================================================
Challenge 33 - 0035
=======================================================================

*Breakfall 4 times!*

When your about to hit the ground just before press Down+X to break
the fall.

=======================================================================
Challenge 34 - 0036
=======================================================================

*Defelct energy blasts 6 times!*

the Ki blast back. You must press forward+X when the Ki is really close
to you.

=======================================================================
Challenge 35 - 0037
=======================================================================

*Win without using the Guard Button!*

This is easy just fight normally and you should have no problem.

=======================================================================

=======================================================================
Challenge 39 - 0041
=======================================================================

*Win without using the Aura Burst Button!*

This is so easy its not even funny. Aura burst is not even a big loss.
Juts fight normally and you'll do fine.

=======================================================================
Challenge 40 - 0042
=======================================================================

*Win without using the Ki Charge Button!*

This is also a really easy challenge. You can't use L so just fight 
normally. You can still gain Ki by using physical attacks so the loss
isn't big at all.

=======================================================================
Challenge 41 - 0043
=======================================================================

*Do a 5-Hit Combo!*

Just combo using the Rush button (Square) and you'll get 6 hits.

=======================================================================
Challenge 42 - 0044
=======================================================================

*Do a 10-Hit Combo!*

Just combo using a full pursuit finish.

=======================================================================
Challenge 43 - 0045
=======================================================================

*Do a 15-Hit Combo!*

Unleash an ultimate attack such as Super Spirt bomb. After you get 9
hits just activate the second part to the attack aand you could get
up to 19 hits. Other ultimates work to like Gohan's, Brolly's, Trunks's
and many others.

=======================================================================
Challenge 44 - 0046
=======================================================================

*Do a 20-Hit Combo!*

Alright here is where alot of people have trouble. Pick Future Trunks 
(Super Saiyan) and do your ultimate attack. After 6 hits press circle 
again to activate the second part to the attack. This should take you 
to 16 hits. After the big ball of energy dash right away to the enemy 
and start punching with Square to continue the combo up to atleast 22 
hits.

=======================================================================
Challenge 45 - 0047
=======================================================================

*Hit opponent 3x from behind!*

-Look at challenge 17-

=======================================================================
Challenge 46 - 0048
=======================================================================

*Do 1200 damage with one combo!*

Just pick Normal Goku and unleash a fully charged Spirit Bomb.

=======================================================================
Challenge 47 - 0049
=======================================================================

*Do 2000 damage with one combo!*

Pick SSJ3 Goku and start in Normal Goku form. At the start of the battle
just charge up to max. Now launch a fully charged Super Spirit Bomb. 
After 9 Hits from normal Goku press Down+Circle to activate the second
part to the attack and you should get around 2200. The combo should have
19 hits.

=======================================================================
Challenge 48 - 0050
=======================================================================

*Survive as long as you can!*
Time: 5-10 Mins

Just hold down or up on the control stick and keep flying around in
circles. When you can, use your Ultimate attack because they eat alot
of time. Using this method I got to 12:16 but then I got bored and
let myself die.

=======================================================================
Challenge 49 - 0051
=======================================================================

*Get as many hits as you can!*
Hits: 20

I found such an easy method for this like its really easy. Pick Future
Trunks and send the enemy as high as you can up into the air. When you
reach maximum height hold the control stick forward to do a continuous
dash towards your opponent. Now hold the control stick forward and when
you get close to your enemy keep pressing Square (Trunks should do a
flying kick). This will slowly take your enemy to the ground but you 
should get about 20 hits before he hits the ground. When he gets close
to the ground just combo using only square. I got to 33 hits using this
easy method.

*NOTE* - You have to press square quite fast.

=======================================================================
Challenge 50 - 0052
=======================================================================

*Cause massive damage!*
Damage: 5,000

Not that hard but can be with some characters. Best to do it with 
Vegito. First off equip him with as many special attack power up cards 
as you can. Then pick him and hold R while selecting him to start in 
SSJ mode. Now keep firing FULLY charged Final Kamehameha's rapidly. 
Charge up when Ki bars get to 0 or 1. Just keep firing fully charged
ones and you should get well over 5,000 damage.
