The aloha shirts, straw hats, pearlarmlets and sandals. Do they do anything funky when you equip the full set on a character, or all characters? Or are they just there as joke equipment?

They're useless, so basically just joke equipment. They sell for good gil though, the Aloha T-shirts in particular.
I wish they did, maybe even if you could just see the characters wearing it during battle:) but sadly its just a joke.
This would have been nice.Quote:

This sounds right since Ozma's not a challenge otherwise :PQuote:

IIRC, they actually make the character weak to element(s). So, yeah, quite useless in the long run.
While there's no actual gameplay connection, they do seem to tie in with the 'save the game at every beach in the world' bonus. Thing is... I don't even remember what you get for doing that. A Key Item of some kind?
I think you may be confusing things. After getting all the Chocograph treasures as well as all Chocobo treasures from bubbles and cracks, if you talk to the Fat chocobo with the square button (as if to challenge him to Tetra Master), he'll tell you to visit all the beaches in the world. You don't have to save at the beaches though, it's enough to simply press circle (cancel) while on foot and you will hear a chime, which counts as a visit. When you visit the last beach, a message will say, "Watched the waves around the world and relaxed..." and you will have your HP/MP fully restored and status effects cured. After this, you can visit any beach in the world at any time and have the same thing happen. It has no connection to the tropical equipment.
That's it. Not saving, simply hitting that button. I knew it didn't actually relate to the tropical equipment, but the whole 'relaxing at the beach' thing just seemed thematically similar :D
Ah, yes. xD Perhaps if your whole party is equipped with it, all the while completing the beaches of the world sidequest, while whistling "In the Summertime", something good will happen! Like Zidane and Dagger being replaced with David Hasselhoff and Pamela Anderson.
A reliable source tells me it can revive Aerith.
No, that's stupid. That's how you fight Cheese WEAPON. THEN Aerith comes back to life. Duh.
Damn, and I thought I knew every little secret in the game.Quote:

The Aloha stuff is pretty disappointing if I had made the game I would've at least made them change the characters appearance in battle.
I've never talked to anyone that's found Ozma hard so no it wasn't sarcasm :P
It woulda been nice if the equipment had changed the equipped person's battle look or their map sprite or something =/
You havn't spoken to many FFIX players then. Lots of people found Ozma hard.Quote:
