How to unlock the Maximum HP achievement in FINAL FANTASY VIII Remastered - Definitive Guide
A fairly simple task.
If you’re going to push to max level a character then you really don’t need to think much about this and you’ll naturally push towards 9,999hp, but if you’re trying to get it out of the way quickly then you want to get your hands on high level curative magic (or even spells like Triple that you can get from Card Modding Quistis early on) and junction them to a character’s HP. Junction the GF Brothers to the character and work towards the HP+80% ability and the achievement will be yours.
Several GFs will also allow you to learn the ability to get extra base HP each time you level, so consider junctioning those early if you want to go that route.

Is this one not unlocking for anyone else? I have multiple characters at 9999 max hp and still don't have it. I've even tried loading an old save before my first 9999 character to do it again - still no luck.

Update: the next day I suddenly just had it, I don't even remember seeing a notification for it. I had this issue with a couple other Achievements as well.

The earliest I was able to get it was:
Level 25
100 Tornados junctioned to HP
Diablos GF using:
Ability x3
HP +20%
HP +40%
HP +80%
Now considering that you can get Dialos right at the beginning of the game it might be possible to get this sooner if you focus him on getting the 3 HP+s right away. It takes 420 AP to learn them all so it depends on how long that takes you.
Of course you also need to be able to draw 100 Tornados. The soonest you can draw that spell is level 30 Thrustaevis in Galbadia.

This achievement can be done very easily later in the game, assuming you have been teaching your Guardian Forces their extra skills. Use the Brothers Guardian Force to learn the HP+20%/40%80% skills to equip on Squall. You can also try to Draw as many Tornado spells as possible and Junection this to your health for a huge boost. Depending on your level and initial HP stat, this should boost you up to 9999 and unlock the achievement.

With GF Diablos (you can get a magic lamp with it from Sid before going on your first mission, being already a SeeD) you can upgrade your skills HP+20%, HP+40% and HP+80%.
By equipping them, you will easily receive the required 9999 HP.

The trophy drops as soon as one character has HP 9999. You can use strong magic to finish off HP, or you can fool the system and set HP to 40% and 80% in Abilities (Diablos was the first one who got this ability)
