Auron is associated with Saturn in Japanese versions, and Mars elsewhere. Rikku is associated with Venus in Japanese versions, and Mercury elsewhere. Kimahri is associated with Jupiter in Japanese versions, and Saturn elsewhere. Wakka is associated with Mercury in Japanese versions, and Jupiter elsewhere. Lulu is associated with Mars in Japanese versions, and Venus elsewhere. The names for the Celestial items are switched:. Other languages still refer to them as the former. Tidus and Kimahri's Celestial Weapons, Ultima Weapon and Longinus, are renamed Caladbolg and Spirit Lance in English. However, its function and description remains correct. The 26th Al Bhed Primer is mistakenly named "Al Bhed Primer XVI". Puroboros now absorbs fire-elemental attacks instead of being neutral. Swamp Mafdet now properly gives AP, gil, and equipment when defeated and has Steal, Bribe, and Drop items. The Ragora in the Lancet tutorial battle in Kilika Woods is now immune to Darkness and Zombie, like other Ragoras, rather than having a 20% resistance to Darkness. Bribe mechanics are updated: the gil amount for a 100% success is raised from x20 enemy Max HP to x25. Enemy aeons now slouch when below 50% HP, just as Yuna's aeons do. The HP Critical threshold is increased from 25% HP to 50%, with digits turning yellow and SOS abilities activating sooner. Equipment can now be sorted automatically in the menu. A Save Sphere is added in the Monster Arena. In the Cloister of Trials within Bevelle Temple, the glyph arrows change directions at a slower rate (every 25 frames instead of 8). A Strength Sphere is now awarded for winning the story-mandatory blitzball match, rather than a Phoenix Down. "OVER DRIVE!!" and " GIL" are also changed to "OVERDRIVE" and "Gil". Versions not in Japanese display " OVERKILL" and "IMMUNE" when attacking instead of "OVER KILL" and "GUARD". This also changes the sequence of button presses for Auron's Dragon Fang and Shooting Star Overdrives. Versions outside of Japan use to confirm and to cancel, instead of the opposite.
