o------- Item Checklist -------o  Watch the spectacular cutscene when you 
|                              |  arrive.  Use the save point marked as the 
| Al Bhed Primer VI......_____ |  white icon on your map then head Northeast 
| Hi-Potion.............._____ |  to the next area and watch the scene.  After 
| Hi-Potion.............._____ |  this scene too you can save your game.  
| 600 Gil................_____ |  There's a huge tutorial available for 
| Tidal Spear............_____ |  playing Blitzball but you don't really need 
| Phoenix Down..........._____ |  to know very much for this point in the 
| Phoenix Down..........._____ |  game.  Leave the room and talk to the Al 
| Magic Sphere..........._____ |  Bhed people standing outside.  Out in the 
| HP Sphere.............._____ |  open area there is a save point to the South 
| Al Bhed Primer VII....._____ |  beside the shop, however at this moment the 
| 1000 Gil..............._____ |  shop is not open.  Descend the stairs to the 
|                              |  Northwest into the other locker room area.  
o------------------------------o  Sitting on the ground behind the guy in 
                                  green is the 'Al Bhed Primer, Vol VI.'  At 
the end of the hall is a chest containing two 'Hi-Potion.'  Leave the locker 
area and make your way West down the curved path, ignore destination marker. 
You'll find O'aka here.  Go North to get the
chest along  the side  with  '600 Gil,'  and  o- Luca (Item) ----------------o
Northwest of that is one with 'Tidal Spear.'  |                              |
in the next  area to the  Northeast opposite  | Potion................50 Gil |
the  ramp  up  to   the  ship  is  a   chest  | Phoenix Down.........100 Gil |
containing  two 'Phoenix Down.'  Keep moving  | Antidote..............50 Gil |
along to reach the docking port three screen  |                              |
East  of  this  one.   There's all  sorts of  o- Luca (Weapon) --------------o
boxes piled around  and no  visible treasure  |                              |
chests, however  if you look at your minimap  | Warrior's Sword......150 Gil |
you will  see there  is  a secret  thin path  | Enchanted Rod........150 Gil |
from  the  Northeast corner.   This leads to  | Power Ball...........150 Gil |
two hidden chests  containing 'Magic Sphere'  | Magical Mog..........150 Gil |
and 'HP Sphere.'  Follow the path around and  | Halberd..............225 Gil |
you'll  find   yourself   back   where   you  | Metal Shield.........250 Gil |
started.  Save and head South.                | Metal Ring...........250 Gil |
                                              | Metal Armguard.......250 Gil |
Now make  your  way East for  a quick scene,  | Metal Bangle.........250 Gil |
then talk to the woman on  the right to pick  | Metal Armlet.........250 Gil |
up some new weapons and items.  Down the red  |                              |
carpet  to the  North is the bar,  go inside  o------------------------------o
and watch  the  event.  Once  everything has 
wrapped up make your way West back to the docks.  Save your game and take the 
West path to reach dock 4.  Soon enough you'll encounter a battle against some 
normal Machina enemies.  Have Lulu cast her Thunder spell whenever she gets 
her turns, it's far more effective than your normal attacks.  Keep following 
the path around to the next dock, and then the one after that.  You have to 
fight three of the same Machina battles in a row here, just use Lulu to make 
them a cakewalk then watch the scene.  Save your game and head East.

| Boss: Oblitzerator           |                                             |
|---------------o--------------| There are two ways to beat this boss, the   |
| HP: 6000      | AP: 36       | easy way and the hard way.  The hard way    |
|---------------+--------------| is to fight and fight until eventually you  |
| MP: 10        | Gil: 580     | deal the necessary 6000 damage and kill it  |
|---------------o--------------o which is a perfectly feasible method though |
|                                a much much easier one is available.  You   |
| will notice that at the beginning of the battle a special Trigger Command  |
| is available to Tidus.  If you use it he tries to operate the nearby crane |
| but Lulu says it must be out of power.  Fortunately being a Black Mage she |
| has the ability to create power out of thin air, more specifically with    |
| her Thunder spell.  When you cast this spell on the crane, not the boss,   |
| it kind of shakes a little and seems to react.  With three casts of the    |
| spell the crane is in full operation again.  Have Tidus select his crane   |
| Trigger Command and when you use it, the crane will lift the boss up and   |
| break it in half, dealing 5500 damage, possibly a bit less if you have     |
| already attacked.  From there it should only take a single Thnder spell    |
| to put an end to the boss.  During the battle when the boss is attacking   |
| you, have Kimahri just attack normally and Tidus act support when he isn't |
| using the crane, healing the party, using Cheer and casting Haste on Lulu. |
|                                                                            |

After the scene return to the locker room.  Talk to Wakka to begin the game.  
The odds are stacked rediculously against you, and it's extremely hard to win.  
If you have Tidus' Jecht Shot on him then it's possible to take the victory 
but considering what happens after the game it really doesn't make much 
difference.  Finish the Blitzball and wand witness the following events.

You'll be thrown automatically into an underwater battle against some normal 
enemies.  Just fight you way through with normal attacks.  Using Tidus to cast 
Haste will speed things up a bit.  By the time this is over you will have 
killed about twenty-five of them.  Following this you'll get to fight a battle 
with Auron.  His sword is powerful enough to piece the enemy's strong armour 
plating, so there's no special considerations you need to worry about.  What 
you do need to worry about however is the next fight, the large bird doesn't 
have too much HP but it counterattacks every single time it is hit, and that 
doesn't slow its normal attack which hits all your characters.  Take it out 
quickly and watch the scene.  You can save your game afterward.

After the long scene follow Auron all the way back to the central area of 
town.  On your way there go North at the T junction to reach the Sphere 
Theater.  You can find the 'Al Bhed Primer, Vol VII' on the floor in the main 
lobby area.  In town, ascend the Northeast stairs where the red directional 
marker leads you, there's a scene at the top.  When it's over before speaking 
to Yuna, run to the right and open the chest to receive '1000 Gil.'  Now speak 
with Yuna.  You're finally ready to proceed to your next destination.
