Yeah, when I suggested that he might not have Mascot, it wasn't because it's impossible to get it on the first play through, but because most players tend to stuff up their chances in some areas for Episode Completes on the first go.

Higher Power, however, is still accessible, as long as Clasko wound up in the Calm Lands Arena. I would highly recommend it. It's not needed but it definitely makes fighting Trema easier if you have triple the normal amount of HP.
