No?

Wakka and Lulu aren't together until X-2, at which point he immediately gets her pregnant.

Being forced to work together with some Al Bhed folks and getting to know them and then seeing the true colors of the folks peddling prejudice against them.

Goth gf happened after the fact.

This is the most realistic thing to happen in any video game.

Nah, they're married in X-2. X has them pretty flagrantly doing eyes at each other from the very beginning. Like, at best you can say that they aren't actively at it until the Luca scene, but as that's not even 10% of the way through the game that's well over half of the game where they pretty clearly have feelings for each other.

Hence why I said "big titty goth girlfriend" and not "big titty goth wife."

Thats not true at all because she was still hung up over Chappu in Guadosalam and didnt even consider Wakka an option at that point.

Do you not remember the scene during the Blitzball game when Wakka subbed out because he was banged up?

And? The scene in game where Tidus straight up asks her about getting with Wakka in Guadosalam/Farplane her response is to be pissed off that he would even think of suggesting it.

I took that as she didn't like him sticking his nose in sensitive business that he wasn't supposed to know about.

Neither.

He actually got to know some Al Bhed, got to see first-hand that they weren't actually evil people - and it helped that he also got to see that the people who'd taught him that Al Bhed were evil, were kinda full of shit about a lot of things (so why not this too?). Realising Yuna, someone he already knew well and knew was a good person, was half-Al Bhed, probably helped a lot too.

Rikku. It's amazing how many situations can be resolved when you can actually communicate. He found an AB that was actually human, and he could no longer demonize them as monsters.

Discovering just how hypocritical the Church of Yevon was. He was the only party member who was devot and he held on to his faith even after seeing all the corruption first hand. Eventually even he couldn't deny he was lied to, about everything.

Neither of Yuna's eyes have the swirl that the Al Bhed's do. It just expressed as heterochromia.

And pretty subtle heterochromia too iirc. You probably wouldn't notice it if you didn't already know beforehand.

That's true in FFX. I think it's more prominent in FFX-2, but it's much more subtle in FFX. It's entirely possible Wakka never noticed - but even if he did, it may have been more of a "that's odd" response instead of "omg Al Bhed".

Al Bhed are also defined by having green eyes, it's not just the swirl.

Wakka is just a moron.
