o------- Item Checklist -------o  Use the save sphere on your right then meet 
|                              |  up with the rest of your party.  After the 
| Mana Sphere............_____ |  scene run to the end of the East path and 
| Scout.................._____ |  open the chest to receive two 'Mana 
| Luck Sphere............_____ |  Sphere.'  Return to the entrance and head 
| Elixir................._____ |  West.  During your first battle there's 
|                              |  another tutorial involving Kimahri.  Kimahri 
o------------------------------o  is the "Blue Mage" of Final Fantasy X, his 
                                  Lancet ability can be used to learn 
abilities from certain enemies.  You are forced to use it here and learn the 
ability Seed Cannon from the Ragora.  Learning a new ability automatically 
brings Kimahri to Ovedrive mode, his Overdrive is the ability to cast enemy 
skills which he has learned.  Try using Seed Cannon after learning it.

Take a look at your minimap and follow the first skinny path you come to 
leading North, you will reach a chest containing 'Scout.'  Note that at any 
time is you need healing outside of battle you don't need to rely on using up 
all your items, Yuna is perfectly capable of casting her Cure spells from the 
menu even if she isn't in your party.  North of the chest you just opened is a 
4-way split.  Take the North branch and follow it until you are on the centre 
path again.  Run North and the path curves West, at the end is a chest 
containing 'Luck Sphere.'  This is a special sphere different from other ones, 
rather than activating a node it creates a node on an empty spot.  Try using 
it on the sphere grid to make a Luck +4 spot, but it will remain unactivated 
for now since you don't have the right spheres to get the bonus.  Head back to 
the main path and run South to encounter a large enemy in your way.

| Boss: Lord Ochu              |                                             |
|---------------o--------------| As it does seem like a recurring theme, it  |
| HP: 4649      | AP: 40       | is still a good idea to use the Cheer       |
|---------------+--------------| ability at the start of battle.  This boss  |
| MP: 40        | Gil: 420     | is quite powerful and has quite a lot of    |
|---------------o--------------o HP but you should be able to take it out as |
|                                long as you are well prepared.  You'll      |
| need a good supply of Antidote items which you probably picked up quite    |
| a few of near the start of the game.  If you're using Yuna in your party   |
| her Cure and Esuna will come in very handy.  Whatever you do the most      |
| important thing is to have Lulu in your party, Ochu has a weakness to fire |
| so her Fire magic should deal a hefty amount of damage.  Dedicate one of   |
| your other characters to healing and curing poison.  Wakka's skills are    |
| fairly useless so it comes down to physical attacks and Fire magic.  When  |
| Ochu decides to fall asleep you need to wake him up immediately otherwise  |
| he keeps gaining a massive amount of HP every turn.  When he wakes up he   |
| always automatically casts the powerful Earthquake spell, so be ready to   |
| set aside a couple characters that turn for helaing, and keep using Fire!  |
|                                                                            |

Walk South and speak to the man with the red hair to get an 'Elixir.'  Further 
South it's not too far out of the way to save your game again.  Return to 
where the two men are standing on the bridge in the middle and take the path 
East just above them.  Follow this path to the end, and go up the stairs to 
the next screen.  Watch the scene then use the save point and ascend.

| Boss: Sinspawn Geneaux       |                                             |
|---------------o--------------| When the fight starts out the boss is just  |
| HP: 3000      | AP: 48       | a big rock blob that you really can't       |
|---------------+--------------| hurt.  If you try to cast magic on it, the  |
| MP: 30        | Gil: 300     | tentacles will absorb it.  This means that  |
|---------------o--------------o you must kill the tentacles first.  Have    |
|                                Tidus and whoever you are using attack the  |
| tentacles physically.  They only have 450 HP so it shouldn't take long     |
| before both of them are taken out.  The boss has a weakness to fire magic  |
| and is vulnerable without his tentacles, so pull Lulu in and begin casting |
| her magic.  After a couple turns of this the true boss will expose itself, |
| now it can attack more powerfully but it is no longer resistant to your    |
| physical attacks.  Similar to Ochu it uses poison attacks on your party    |
| so hopefully you've got some leftover Antidotes.  From this point it       |
| shouldn't be too hard to deal the rest of the needed damage, the only      |
| difficult thing may be withstanding some of his more powerful attacks      |
| like the tentacles attack that hits your entire party.                     |
|                                                                            |

Climb the stairs to the Northwest for a scene, then onward to the temple.  
Approch it and once again there's another scene.  Head into the temple, save 
your game then talk to Wakka and pray with him.  Following this event proceed 
North to the Cloister of Trials.  Wait around for the elevator and Descend.
