FFVI: Chupons sneezing @ the collesium?

[James Bixler]

Does anyone know a good way to keep the chupons from sneezing you out of a
match? The best way I have devised is equiping a character with dragoon
boots relic and hoping (he/she) will jump before the ol' chupon sneezes.
Do I have any other better options?

No, there is no way to do it. If you bet lame items, then expect to get
sneezed. The only way to keep Chupon from blowing you away is to bet a
decent item and not fight him. Otherwise, Sneeze is unavoidable.

I'm not sure why you would really even want to beat Chupon, since
it's much better to just go steal a few Megalixers elsewhere. But if you
want to beat him, you can also use Locke (fast character) and equip him with
Gengi Glove and Offering, and give him Atma weapon and Valient knife. At
high levels, Locke will hit 8 times at 9999. This is quite effective for
giving you the best chance of killing Chupon before he sneezes.

You don't get a Megalixir from Chupon. You just get an ordinary,
everyday Elixir.

But, if you bet the Striker at the Collesium, you have to fight a
Chupon and at the Vs. screen the item the you would win is "????????"
So, then, what is that item you can win? And do you think one
could even win it???

That is, unless you equip the NosePlug relic.

Now wait just a minute, I didn't say that you get a Megalixir from
Chupon, I just said it's easier to steal one FROM SOMEWHERE ELSE!!! In other
words, it's a waste of time beating Chupon and getting Elixirs when you could
be getting Megalixirs ELSEWHERE.

The "???????" that you win if you beat Chupon is just another
striker. In other words, you just got back the striker that you bet.
I should point out though that everytime you see a "???????", it
means that the game isn't going to tell you what you will win until you
win it. What you win isn't a random item, and most times it's not as
silly as getting the same thing that you bet.
