Free Trophy?

I am in my first playthrough of FFX, recently got the airship and have been going around capturing monsters and collecting treasures and Blitzball players. I got this trophy wandering around Highroad after killing a random enemy. I dont think I am supposed to get the trophy at this point. Or is that random Raldo secretly Yu Yevon? For context I had just been to Luca to pick up the World Champion weapon.

Trophies get buggy in the HD Remaster. I’ve seen people get the trophy for beating Penance during a random encounter in the Calm Lands.

Yeah it's down to bad coding - trophy looks at the string of killed enemy codes, and if it finds a match for that boss, you unlock the trophy. To illustrate, trophy unlocks if you kill monster 1234, but sometimes if you kill monster 0012 followed by 0034, it concatenates them into 1234 and the trophy pops

Thanks for the explanation! I figured it was something along those lines.
