 Talk to all the Blitzball players by the beach-side and they will give Tidus 200 Gil, Potion (x5), and a Hi-Potion.
 Swim to the alcove on the right side of the beach to find a Moon Crest!

Talk to Wakka to go on to the next area. Follow Wakka to the Valley; he will push you off the cliff and into the water full of killer fish.

Utilize Wakka's skills to help you when fighting off the Piranhas. They may not be as strong but they attack in groups, so be on your guard!
Continue swimming through the grove and you'll find some underwater chests with one Phoenix Down, one Hi-Potion, and Antidote (x2).

## Besaid Vilage Entrance

At the end of the road there will be an automatic event and follow the red arrow to the Village of Besaid.

After the cut-scene, Wakka will ask if you know "the Prayer". Choose any of the two answers and Wakka will teach it to you.

From there, it's time for some exploration!
 First, open the chest directly in front of you for a Phoenix Down.
 Next, Head past the first hut on the left into the somewhat hidden path on the mini-map to find a cove with three chests containing Potions (x2), one Hi-Potion, and 400 Gil.
 Also, enter the first hut on the left side to find the Items Store! Speak to the lady to purchase some goods for battle (if needed) and stock up.

Head towards the second building to the left to find the Crusaders' Lodge. Talk to Luzzu and Gatta here; don't forget to pick up the Al Bhed Primer Vol. 2 next to the counter.

Once you're done exploring the village, enter the nearby temple and approach the statues to trigger a cutscene. After talking to the monk in the Temple of Yevon-Besaid, return to Wakka's house and take a nap. Return to the Temple after waking up and talk to Wakka to get access to the Cloister of Trials.

## Leaving the Village

After clearing the cloister, there will be an event in the Plaza where Yuna will make her first attempt at summoning the Aeon Valefor.

After the scene with the Aeon, it's time for some mingling! Speak with Yuna and then speak to Wakka to get some rest.

On the following morning, exit the lodge and Tidus will receive a new weapon from Wakka, the Brotherhood.

After the cut-scene, go back to Besaid Village one more time and enter the Item Shop and speak to the store clerk. From there, head to the Weaver's Shop on the northeast (next to Wakka's hut) and talk to the dog to receive Valefor's second Overdrive,Energy Blast.

## Battle Tutorials Round 1

With all the items in hand, exit the village and make your way up the mountainside. You will participate in several tutorial battles, each for a certain command. For the first battle, you'll learn about using black magic and elemental weakness/resistance with Lulu.

After the battle another event will occur at the statue. Tidus can choose to pray or not pray to the statue, it doesn't seem to have any effect on the game. Keep going towards the red indicator and you'll be attacked by a Ronso.

## Enemy Battle: Kimahri Ronso

Kimahri uses only physical attacks, but every three turns he uses the Jump ability. Normal damage should deal around only 50 points, Jump on the other hand should do around 200 points so heal up if Tidus' HP falls below 200. Other than constant physical attack use Tidus' Cheer ability. Deal around 700+ in damage and the battle will end.

## Battle Tutorials Round 2

As you continue up the mountainside, you'll trigger several more tutorial battles. You will learn about switching members during battle and how to summon with Yuna. You will then learn about using skills by using Wakka's Dark Attack skill.

At the Beach, talk to everyone at the docks to receive the following gifts:

 the little kid gives you a Remedy

 the woman gives you Phoenix Down (x3)

 one man gives you 400 Gil

 another man gives an you an Ether

 the Priest gives you a Seeker's Ring

With all the items in hand, get onto the ship to depart for the next island!
