Crisis Core Summons

Summons have once again returned in Crisis Core. These great beasts are activated through the DMW randomly. The first three summons are fought through the story line. But you will have to find their respective Materia through the missions.
The Odin Materia is also acquired through the missions, but you are not put to a fight with him.
The Phoenix Materia is not obtained until later in the game, when you go to Nibelheim. You must complete the first of the "Seven Wonders" sidequest.
Below is a brief detail of each summon, their CGI, and where they are located. It would be greatly beneficial to get them as early as you possibly can.
