Spirit: Difference between revisions

Defeating a spirit in battle does not guarantee its acquisition. Once a spirit battle has ended, the player is taken to a shooting-style minigame where the player character holds a special weapon and the main opponent of the battle is in a stunned pose with heavily desaturated colors. A cyan shield with a small gap circles around the opponent in an attempt to prevent the spirit from being acquired. The player must shoot through the gap to acquire the spirit. If the player mistimes the shot, they will shoot the shield instead and the minigame will end with no spirit acquired. However, the next time the player battles that specific spirit, the portion of the shield that was shot will be removed, making each successive attempt easier than the last. Spirit Points can also be spent for one additional attempt per battle. The player can also use support items to make the minigame easier, including slowing down the shield rotation and instantly removing a large portion of the shield. Only one of each item can be used per battle. These items are randomly rewarded in certain modes and occasionally available in the shop.
