do you have to have selphi in your party??i really cant remember.

'When the scene's over, you'll be piloting Balamb Garden. Save, then go
back to Trabia Garden and challenge Selphie's friend to a card game. She
has the Selphie card. However, this region uses the Random and Plus
rules, so it'll be tough to win. Also, you can get the August issue of
Weapons Monthly nearby. (Weird that you can get the August issue now,
but you can't get the July issue until Disc 3...) '

its all my walkthrouhg said
