Oh God I'm lame.

I got item lore, I used my action replay to do it.

I don't feel bad about it, I've purchased this game 4 times (SNES, PSX, GBA and DS) and beaten it so many times that I'm really not in the mood to restart it just for this. I also didn't want to wait until the second playthrough - I'm impatient.

Uggh, I hate using AR though.
