I’m going to go over how to do this, what are some things you can get, and more. This is also very helpful if you want to get into competitive Yo-Kai battling. 

This guide will go over everything about Soulcery in Yo-Kai Watch 2 including:

Soulcery Basics - How Soulcery works and where you can do it. Special Fusion Souls - Special Souls you get only by fusing.

Soulcery Basics

To unlock Soulcery, you must play until you reach Harrisville, which is a few hours into the game, depending on how fast you go through the main story.

There is a temple called Temple of Virtue on the western side of Harrisville. The NPC, Grand Monk, will tell you about Soulcery, then you can do it for yourself.

The method is simple: Take a Yo-Kai you do not want to use, and turn it into a soul. This makes the Yo-Kai into an equip item and it will no longer be usable in battle.

Some souls give things like stats while others give special effects, like increasing the chance Yo-Kai will befriend you.

Fusion

You can power up your souls by fusing them.

Pick the soul you want to power up as your first soul, then pick another to fuse into it. This gets rid of the 2nd soul, and puts experience in the 1st. You will see a bar start to fill. When it fills completely, the soul levels up and becomes stronger.

Some souls will fuse together to make a completely new soul. You will get a warning if this happens, in case you don’t want the new soul.

Each soul is the same type of the Yo-Kai it came from, like Tough from Goldenyan. You will get bonus experience if you fuse souls of the same type.

Special Fusion Souls

Below is a list of all the special souls you get only by fusing 2 specific souls together.

Some of the names are translated and may not be the exact names in the localized version, but the Yo-Kai required and the effect are exactly the same.
