Now would be a good time to get yourself a Gold Chocobo. This is the first occasion to get one, and it's good to have a reasonably well-grown Knights of Round materia around for the big end battles. For more on breeding, see the [[../Chocobos|Chocobos page]]. To advance the game, your next stop is Junon.

Carry Armor leaves God's Hand, a nice weapon for Tifa. After the fight, you take the the other sub to catch Reno. In the submarine bay, be sure to check every box. You'll find Battle Trumpet (for Cait Sith), Scimitar (a weapon for Cid that has triple materia growth rate) and Leviathan Scales, a key item which will douse the flames in the Wutai cave.

In the other sub, you first need to fight your way in. There's a save point in the entryway. In the command cabin, you have the option to fight the commander and two soldiers, or you can take them hostage.

Speed after the red sub, and when you get a lock-on fire the torpedoes. If you fail you don't get the Huge Materia, so hopefully you saved back in the submarine bay. If you succeed, the enemy sub stays safe in the bottom of the ocean until you grab the Materia, so no need to hurry. You get orders to return to Junon, and when you get back you see an airplane going to Rocket town.

The next destination is Rocket Town.  New item chests have been scattered around if you haven't been here since picking up Cid. In the room behind the weapons shop is a Fourth Bracelet, and in the item shop is a Guard Source.

In the rocket, there's one more bad guy to beat. Enter the cockpit and a cutscene follows. Cid's workers leave the rocket to Cid, and then you hear that Palmer is launching the rocket.

Once in space, you can go fetch the Huge Materia by using the ladders to the right. The combination lock needs button key presses; if you get it wrong, you have three minutes to get it right, so listen to Cid's ideas. The correct combination is {{control|{{psx|C}} {{dot}} {{psx|S}} {{dot}} {{psx|X}} {{dot}} {{psx|X}}|{{kbd|Enter}} {{dot}} {{(}}{{kbd|.}} or {{kbd|Delete}}{{)}} {{dot}} {{(}}{{kbd|0}} or {{kbd|Insert}}{{)}} {{dot}} {{(}}{{kbd|0}} or {{kbd|Insert}}{{)}}}}. Note if your have changed you controls, you must input the controls to what you changed them too instead.

To get to the escape pod, go left. There's a cutscene involving Shera, who shows up and leads you to the pod. The rocket will hit the Meteor, and won't cause much damage to it at all, even if you leave the Huge Materia in the rocket.

If you were victorious in saving all the Huge Materia, it would be a good time to give them all to Bugenhagen. Leave them to his care when you visit Cosmo Canyon and ask the old man what to do next.
