Five useful item checks
These are base item effects; read the inventory description if your game version differs.
| Item | Effect | Important limit |
|---|---|---|
| Cake | +3 HP and +9 SP | An SP recovery choice; not a large HP heal. |
| First Aid Kit | Revive with 10 HP | Automatic self-revival waits until enemy actions finish; Butterfingers follows. |
| Bomb | 2 damage to all enemies and the user | Self-damage matters; Item-Resistant enemies reject damage items. |
| Shield Sphere | Level 1 Shield for up to three turns | The level is consumed after deflecting a move; this is not three guaranteed protected turns. |
| Haunted Cheezburger | +6 HP and one turn Invisible | User-only, followed by a skipped action. |
Where to restock
Zuka in Vermillion Village and Valor in Trinity sell First Aid Kits. Annihilator sells Bombs before Spiky Killbot is defeated. Ghost Chef makes Haunted Cheezburger from a Cheezburger or Double Cheezburger after his cooking quest.
When an item will not solve the boss
A damage item and a healing item have different jobs. Trinity Council’s Item-Resistant attribute rejects Bomb damage, but does not prevent you from healing yourself. Reserve the charged Azure Blast window for immunity rather than an ordinary HP item.
