You will fight Paavlo, Drowns, and Burrowers before going on the spaceship. At first you must fight him in sword mode. Keep hitting him and after you get him to about one third health, he sends Drowns in sets of three for four times in a row.
After that, you will fight him again. After a little below half health, he will pull out a cylinder with lasers on high and on low (meaning that some lasers are on the bottom and the others are on the top). After that, you fight him again. When he
has very little health, he sends out Burrowers in a group of two then a group of three. Fight and defeat him again and he leaves as in the other times. After Paavlo gets on to the platform for the second time, immediately run to the door to the sync node. It will make four beams, two high and two low. Run into the side of the door and turn the camera around while running away from the center of the place. You should now only have to jump whenever a high beam comes around. It may seem like the low beams will hit you, but they will not.

Get High Amount of Plasma
The best way to get alot of plasma is to get combos right? well your best form to do that in is the lizard thing form and jus keep jumping on the enemies and get those levels up the best level to do this in is when you first find some.
Get More Plasm
To get more "Plasm" points from each kill, get in as many consecutive hits as possible. The more consecutive hits you get, the more damage you do and the more plasm you get from each kill... which essentially means more powerups faster!
Highest hit chains
During the first few levels after your forms are taken there are a number of spawn nodes that resease basic drone and gunners. These pose very little threat. When you find these you shouldn't destroy the node. you can continue to kill the drones with out being damaged. If you only use X you can get more than 150 hits in a chain before the node runs out of people and destrys itself. In the beginning of the game this is the best way to get alot of plasm early on.
Kill enemies faster
When fighting an enemy switch to sword mode and walk up to an enemy and press o. when they go up in the air wait till they come low enough for you to hit them the press o again this one more time and this time when the come down do a shining sword (press square) to finish them off fast.

Venus Flytrap of Doom
When your going to fight that big flytrap thingy morph to stealth form and go invisible. Once the beam stops it will make a plastid beatle. Pounce on the beatle and go to gun form. You will be holding the beatle. Then when the flytrap is about
to roar, shoot the beatle into its mouth. Repeat this until the flytrap opens. Then get out your sword and hack away until it dies.
