This Mission can be completed the normal way, as outlined below, or you can utilize the 
Death spamming strategy to try and complete this Mission earlier in the game to obtain a 
Growth Egg. Check out the Early Growth Egg page for more information.
The Cie’th Stone for this Mission is located at the top of the Deserted Schoolhouse near the Village Proper of Oerba. You can use a Waypoint to warp to Oerba but then you will have to run through the entire village to reach the Cie’th Stone.
The mark for this Mission can be found in Aggra’s Pasture near where the Ochu can be found. Check out the Aggra’s Pasture page for more information or use the map below:
Class: A
HP: 2,625,000
Neochu has a number of attacks which do a high amount of damage. It has a regular attack that it will use which involves it pushing its vines into the ground and having them come up through the ground to launch one of your party members into the air. In addition to doing a fairly high amount of damage, this attack will also launch that party member which temporarily prevents them from taking actions (or interrupts actions if they are already in progress).
Its other moves include the following:
Because Neochu will just summon more Picochus to join the battle if you kill them first, and because it will be continuously buffing and healing them throughout the fight, your best bet is to focus your attacks on the Neochu first.
More importantly than that though is that your party members need to be able to survive the hit from Screech which means they will need to have well over 10,000 HP each. If they don’t, either consider leveling your party or utilizing the Death spamming strategy (outlined on the Early Growth Egg page).
Aegisol and Fortisol will be very helpful for this fight and now is a good time to use them as this is one of the more challenging enemies you will face. You should also equip your party members with accessories that reduce damage and prevent negative status effects such as 
Royal Armlet, 
Ribbon and Super Ribbon. Due to the high amount of damage, there’s also value in equipping your party members with 
Gaian Ring.
The goal from there is to keep a 
Sentinel active and healed for recovery periods and then work towards slowly building up Neochu’s Chain Gauge for a Stagger. Having debuffs applied by a Saboteur such as 
Imperil, 
Deprotect and 
Deshell will make this task much easier. And don’t forget that you will have to defeat each of the Picochus after Neochu has been defeated.
