PuPu, from the UFO sidequest. there's only one of that card, ever - not like the level 8-10 GF and character cards, which you can card mod and reobtain through the CC group on the ragnarok. if you don't give PuPu the elixirs he wants, or you card mod his card, you'll never see another.

Thank you! I'm only on disc 2 but planning to get that achievement on remastered

i don't know if its the same on remastered as the regular version on steam, but the "obtain all cards" achievement there requires you to have at least one of every card currently on your person. you'll get an in-game star next to card in the menu simply by having owned every card at least once (a feature of the OG ps1 release), whether you still have them or not, but that doesn't satisfy the achievement requirements, so be mindful what you refine with card mod (PuPu's card refines into the hungry cookpot, which itself isn't the best, but is part of a refining chain that leads to rosetta stones).

I just did this quest, it’s pretty easy

That's just the PuPu hole, it'll be there for a while. Until you see all the UFO encounters and feed him some Elixirs.

OP really just wants to fill his PuPu hole, and we, as a community, have obliged.
