FFVI: Divergent Paths

Could be, I forget how exactly Shadow is handled in Divergent Paths, I may be confusing it with another hack that subs Shadow out to make room for Leo... But yeah that sounds like a possibility. Hopefully he'll have it it still the next time, I also forget how exactly the vanilla game handled it, like if he'd have the item the next time you ran into him, or if it reloaded his properties thus erasing it...
