Mega Man X3 Character Change Menu sprites

[Garamonde]

I was just curious, I don't completely know how PSX VRAM works. I thought that loading just one savestate into it would show you the tiles for every sprite of every object in the current scene of the save?

EDIT: I just wondered if there were any slight color differences or anything of the sort between using VRAM and getting them from the disc, that's mostly why I was asking.
