Yo-Kai Skill Guide: Yokai for EXP, Items, and Money!

There are a lot of Yo-Kai in Yo-Kai Watch, and after you beat the game (or even during your first play through), you might want to try and level up your team or befriend some Yo-Kai you missed out on. There are a few Yo-Kai who have skills that can help you make friends or find more items with ease. These Yo-Kai’s skills are not really powerful when they are in battle, but out of battle and after battle, you might find some more items or money in your pockets.

Helpful Yo-Kai

These Yo-Kai have skills that are not very good in combat, but outside of battle or when you’re trying to complete a quest or train, you may find them to be quite useful to have as an ally on your team.
