About the list
The card list features the entire card listing in the game.
These cards are arranged accordingly to card levels. The card
lists also shows a graphical image of the cards along with
its attributes and elementals (if applicable).
Getting/
Collecting Cards
In Final Fantasy VIII, there are a lot of methods to obtain
cards. The most common method is to beat another card player
for the cards. You can also win cards from Boss fights, which
are usually rare cards or from random battles, where most
of these cards are categorized under Page 1 to Page 5. The
exception is the PuPu Card.
In the game, the cards are classified into 4 groups. They
are: MONSTER, BOSS, GF and CHARACTER. GF and CHARACTER cards
are considered rare cards. Monster Cards can be obtained by
defeating the specific monster itself. However, PuPu's card
[a level 5 card] is an exception one. Refer to the
Side
Quests section for more details.
Boss cards can be obtained only via [Card] command or by defeating
other card players. In the game, some of the regular monsters
carries two types of cards: a card of itself and a BOSS card.
1 out of 10 chances, you can win the boss card from defeating
that monster. To have a higher percentage, use the [Card]
command. You need to injure the monster severely until it
has around 5% of HP left, before you can convert into a card
using [Card]. The [Card] command is available from GF Quezacotl
or you can use a Gambler Spirit to allow a GF to learn it.

Card
Refinement
In Final Fantasy VIII, Squall and his friends could refine
useless items in useful items via refinement abilities of
GFs. Refinement abilities ends with a "RF" and can
be further classified into two general types - item refinement
and magic refinement. Squall can also refine the cards into
items. Card Refinining is an example of Item Refinement. The
better the card is, the better items you can refine from it.
There is also a refinement ratio. For example, a Geezard card
will refine into 1x Screw. The ratio is 1:1. For cards such
as Malboro, you need 10x such cards before you can refine
into a Malboro Tentacle.
In other words, collecting cards is as good as collecting
rare items. Below is the cards listing. The cards are arranged
accordingly to pages or levels.
