=================================== == Opening Notes ==

** I recommend using a turbo controller for this game. It has a lot of text and mashing points and a turbo controller just makes life better. I recommend having it on Auto for the opening scene and Turbo from then on out. It takes a while to get use to tapping A for precise parts, but it's not too bad.

** Always assume Dion is leader unless otherwise noted

** LR = Luck Rock Count

** I = What direction to move to get to an item
