I don't ever remember him curing himself of any status ailments other than slow, which he will auto-counter with haste.

Also helpful tips from Polk:

-Throw a star curtain from him at the beginning of battle. If you don't have any, go back and fight one of those dark flan in the cave of Mt. Gagazet and steal one from him. If I remember right, he won't counter-reflect and heal that way, but if he does, just dispel your characters, buffs aren't needed.

-After he's reflected, toss a smoke grenade and a silver hourglass on him to put him in darkness and slow. He will try to auto-counter with haste, but it will bounce off of him and hit someone on your party.

-Auron's Banishing Blade will throw all 4 breaks on him if executed correctly.

Then just coast. He's really easy once you know how to properly dismantle him.
