Welcome to high level overview for this trophy guide! Final Fantasy 8 was released 20 years ago and finally we can play remastered version. There are 11 missable trophies, so i'm gonna point out what you need to be carefull about on your journey.
The biggest portion of the game missables are GF's. You can find topic for detail info how to get them, there is video as well. Make sure to have Draw command all the time so you can check every boss. It also makes sense to Draw alot from bosses as they hold good magic at the point when you challenge them.

Next on the line are Timber Maganizes out of which only 1 is missable but needed for trophy. Check out trophy info bellow (that one you can miss is on White SeeD Ship in late game, first time when you enter it). (https://youtu.be/V7SVmj99Z-4)
CC Card Quest is also missable, make sure to finish that before end of Disk 3 (Sefier + Edea battle in Lunatic Pandora). Check info and video bellow. (https://youtu.be/5yp68nvw3pM)
Few things to have in mind:
You need 100 kills and 1000 kills. Make sure to fight as often as you can, or leave it for the end. With X3 button you can do this in 2 hours.
You need 100 Draqs from Draw points. Make sure to Draw always. Later you can also do this quite easy with X3 button.
Everything else is easy to get. If you want to check, you can enable God Mode with R3, but i strongly dissagree with that method. Draw all magic from bosses, make sure you Junction Magic often and you should be good to go.

Through the game you will find Weapon Magazines. Having one and reading one opens possibility to develop new weapons in any Junk Shop. Simply develop something for any character to unlock trophy.
Triple Triad is a card mini-game that you can play after learning about it very short into the game. If you press Square on some NPC you can start a card game. Simply playing unlocks trophy.
After returning from Dollet mission, you will gain SeeD rank based on your performance there. After that you will start gaining salaries when time pass. You can't avoid this so it will be your automatic unlock.
GF's are your summons. You can find them in the Tomb of the Unknown King. You need to solve the puzzle there, defeat both in 2 battles and they are yours.

You need to raise HP of any character to 9999. Brothers and Diablos GF have HP+80% skill, which will make it easy. Brothers cannot be missed. On the other hand, defeating Jumbo Cactuar leaves Gaea's Ring which can teach any GF with free slot that skill. Juncion desired GF, equip HP+80% (even HP+40% is enough), aim to equip some GF that have HP-J ability (so that you can juncion magic on HP atribute), and put the best magic there (Curaga, Full-Life, Aura, Regen etc). It should not be hard to achieve this even early in the game.
Kill 100 enemies in battles. Simple enough, you should obtain this during your play. As there is L3 button that increase speed x3, its easy to farm.
When you take control of Balamb you can explore the world. That is your chance to enter forests with Chocobos and solve puzzles in each. Basicaly you need to whistle at right points in right order to call out big Choco in the end. Then you need to find Item and call big Choco to pick it up. After you call big Choco you can take him out of forest which will neat you Chocobo Trophy. By finished all forests you will get Chocobo Card.
First, you need to Junction GF and equip Draw skill to character for it to be allowed to Draw. Draw 100 times in battles (stock, not use option) from an enemy. I really recommend stealing magic from start as you will need it to enhance your attributes/attacks/defense.
GF's are your summons. This one can be drawn from Edea at end of Disk 2 or from last dungeon boss Catoblepas.

GF's are your summons. This GF cannot be completed until after reaching Esthar on Disc 3. But you can start preparing as soon as you gain Balamb as a transport vehicle, which is before that. You need to collect 6x Steel Pipes, 6x Malboro Tentacles, 6x Remedy+, and Solomon's Ring. Be aware that without Alexander you cannot make Remedy +, you need Med LV Up skill from him. Once you have all of these items, go to Item menu and use Solomon's Ring.

This can simply be done by Saving the game, playing card game - select weakest cards and 1 rare card (Ifrit for example, you get that one when you beat him) and losing the game. Opponent needs to select rare card to take from you. After losing one, load the game, you want to hold on to your rare cards. There is also a quest line for cards where you need to lose some rare cards which you can get back later.
CC Group Quest must be finished before Lunatic Pandora which was end of Disk 3 on PS1 version. If you don't beat all CC members, you cannot play them later after Lunatic Pandora Events (Disk 4 on PS1 version).
First oportunity to start the quest is when you finish Missile Base mission where you need to stop rocket hitting Balamb Garden. After that you will be back with Squall in Balamb.
You can start quest after Lunar Base. Best point is when you get Ragnarok.
Kill 1000 enemies in battles. It doesn't have to be with 1 character, it doesn't have to be 1000 on your save. If you have Battle meter, you can check under Information under Tutorial count for each character. By them time i got this trophy, i had around 750 which means that kills what i did and not saved on some occasions also count.
As there is L3 button that increase speed x3, its easy to farm. There is an certain encounters involving 3 enemies just beside where Galbadia Garden original location is, strife throuh montains close to forest.
Omega Weapon can be found in last dungeon before fighting Ultimecia. It's highly recommendable that you unlock all sealed powers in dungeon first.
From entrance, use your strong team to climb the stairs and enter middle north door. Drop down from chandeller and continue through north door. Near fontain, switch to other team. With them, climb the stairs but exit through the right door, not the middle one. Circle around, go down the stairs and pull the rope in lower left corner. Switch to other team, go north and inspect Omega to start a fight.
Video guide coming soon...
Draw points are purple glowing thingies that you can find all over the place. First, you need to Junction GF and equip Draw skill to character for it to be allowed to Draw from those points. Draw 100 times for this trophy.
When you use a drawing point, its empty for some time. Returning back later or after some time replenish draw points.

When you do, answer with "It's not our will to fight" and beat first. Ruby Dragon. Afterwards, answer "Never" to take on another one. You'll then be prompted with a third question; the correct answer is the hidden bottom option. Beat Bahamut.
