| 423 | (B) CONTROLS / Drag | --- | To drag, slide the stylus while keeping it in contact with the Touch Screen. Dragging is used to move Neku or activate certain psychs. Dragging is a cinch! Choose your starting point carefully for precise control. Past that, it's just like drawing. Make combat your canvas! |
|
||||||
| 424 | (B) CONTROLS / Touch | --- | To touch, quickly tap the stylus against the Touch Screen. Touching is used to activate certain psychs. This is as basic as it gets. Whether it's an enemy, a pin, or empty space, just give it a quick touch, and you're on your way! |
|
||||||
| 425 | (B) CONTROLS / Slash | --- | To slash, draw a short, quick line with the stylus on the Touch Screen. Having trouble? Be sure to lift the stylus right after slashing. The slash is a more advanced command! Learn to use light, quick flicks when drawing lines across your target. |
|
||||||
| 426 | (B) CONTROLS / Press | --- | To press, keep the stylus in contact with a single point on the Touch Screen. Pressing is used to activate certain psychs. Pressing isn't that difficult, but if you move the stylus while pressing, it can accidentally turn into a drag. Keep that stylus steady, soldier! |
|
||||||
| 427 | (B) Use Obstacles | --- | Obstacles lying around the field can be used during combat to deal damage to your enemies. Some foes will use obstacles against you, too! Many effective psychs use obstacles as weapons. It can be easy to overlook the junk lying around, but that junk can save your hide! |
|
||||||
| 428 | (B) Wearing Pins | --- | Neku relies on the pins he's wearing to fight! Enter a pin's touch command correctly and the pin icon will flash. PP earned at the Results Screen after battle only go into pins Neku is wearing. Cycle out old pins for new ones to grow your whole arsenal! |
|
||||||
| 429 | (B) Sub-slots | --- | Use the Pins Menu to assign pins to sub-slots. Those pins will only activate while you're holding down the L or R Button. As you wear more and more pins at a time, their controls can start to overlap. If that happens, try setting half of them to sub-slots. |
|
||||||
| 430 | (B) Boot-Reboot | --- | Some pins need to boot at the start of battle before they can be used. Once a pin's gauge runs out, you'll have to wait for it to reboot. It's impossible to completely use up pins, so go wild! Use them freely in combat and find the set that works best with your own personal style. |
|
||||||
| 431 | (B) Negative Statuses | --- | Neku, his partner, and their enemies are all susceptible to negative statuses in battle. The negative effects will go away in time. HP Drain causes you to gradually lose HP. Attack Break and Defense Break lower those stats. Immobility stuns you. |
|
||||||
| 432 | (B) Pin Growth/Evolution | --- | Pins grow as you earn PP. Level up pins to increase their Attack or other stats. Some pins will evolve into entirely new pins! Pins will only evolve when they level up. It seems the secret to getting your pins to evolve has to do with the way they grow... |
|
||||||
| 433 | (B) Psych Affinities | --- | Psych affinities include Negativity (long-range attacks), Positivity (short-range attacks), and Neutrality. Some foes are immune to an affinity. If you run into foes resistant to an affinity, you'll want to try switching the affinities of the pins Neku is wearing and find a weakness. |
|
||||||
| 434 | (B) Escaping from Battle | --- | To escape from battle, press START to pause combat, then select "Gotta bounce!" Escaping never fails, but it may tick off your partner.

|
||||||
| 435 | (B) Scanning | --- | While in the field, touch the scan pin at the lower right of the bottom screen to project a scanning field and read people's minds! Look out for Noise symbols when reading people's thoughts. Accidentally touch a Noise symbol, and you'll wind up in battle! |
|
||||||
| 436 | (B) Enemy Encounters | --- | Touch one of the Noise symbols that float around the field during a scan and Neku and his partner will warp to their combat zones. Noise symbols come in different shapes and sizes. Looking to fight a certain type of Noise? Pay attention to the symbol! |
|
||||||

|
||||||
| 438 | (B) Red Noise Symbols | --- | Red Noise symbols floating around the scanning field are also known as chump Noise symbols. Noise are only visible during a scan.

||||||

|
||||||
| 440 | (B) Green Noise Symbols | --- | Green Noise symbols floating around the scanning field are also known as Pig Noise symbols. Pick on Pig Noise to pick up pins! Pig Noise hide throughout Shibuya. Find and beat them for guaranteed pin drops! However, each breed calls for special tactics... |
|
||||||
| 441 | (B) Yellow Noise Symbols | --- | Yellow Noise symbols floating around the scanning field are also known as negative Noise symbols, and drag down the hosts they inhabit. Negative Noise possess people and objects. Dispelling them through battle often moves the story along, so if you see them, take 'em out! |
|
||||||
| 442 | (B) Black Noise Symbols | --- | Black Noise symbols floating around the scanning field are also known as Taboo Noise symbols. They will come after you during a scan! Taboo Noise can scan, too. If you open your mind, they will sense it and move in-sometimes in numbers! You can't run from Taboo battles. |
|
||||||
| 443 | (B) Memes | --- | Use imprinting to slip memes you've collected directly into people's minds! Those memes will cause folks to take a variety of actions. Memes are quick to come and go. Memes you need are always found the same story day, and once that day comes to a close, they vanish. |
|
||||||
| 444 | (B) Talk to Your Partner | --- | Stand in one place on the field screen for a moment, and you may be able to speak with your partner for advice on how to proceed. Sometimes your partner will give you hints. If you want to solve puzzles yourself, you don't have to talk to them. Play it your way! |
|
||||||
| 445 | (B) Mail Icon | --- | While in the field, touch the mail icon in the upper-left corner of the bottom screen to read over the day's mission (your objective). If you've forgotten what the Reapers' mission for the day is, or haven't picked up the game in a while, use this to get your bearings. |
|
||||||
| 446 | (B) Be a Trendsetter | --- | You can set fashion trends and make your favorite brand more popular in a given area by wearing pins and items of that brand into battle. You only receive Attack bonuses in battle for shaping the trends. Support pins that lack offensive capability won't receive any bonus. |
|
||||||
| 447 | (B) Shutdown | --- | When you load your game after turning off the power and taking a break, the pins Neku is wearing will earn PP for the time you were away. Don't feel bad when work, school, and the rest of your life tear you away from Shibuya for a while. The Shutdown PP system has your back! |
|
||||||
| 448 | (B) Shop Clerks | --- | As you buy items from a store, your friendship gauge (FSG) with the clerk will rise, and they'll offer new items and unlock hidden item abilities. If a QUEST item asks for pins, you will need to master them first. Power those pins up to their max level, then hit the shops! |
|
||||||
| 449 | (B) Item Abilities | --- | Each item possesses a hidden ability which only activates after a store clerk tells you about it. Unlocked items have an A in their icons. Different clerks will unlock different items for you. And hey, nobody ever said an item's ability has to be unlocked at the store it came from! |

||||||

|
||||||
| 453 | (B) Charge Slam | --- | Draw a line and hold the stylus to the screen to charge. Aim carefully, then lift the stylus to perform a powerful Charge Slam. The Charge Slam is most useful after making the enemy dizzy. Don't give up just because their pins are harder core. Smarts beat stats! |
|
||||||
| 454 | (B) Spin Slam | --- | Slash your pin down the middle and it will travel in a straight line, but did you know you can slash along its edge to apply spin and make it curve?

|
||||||
| 459 | (B) Secrets of Evolution | --- | Want to collect every pin out there? Then you'll need to be resourceful and uncover the mysterious forces that drive pin evolution.

|
||||||
| 460 | (B) Mingle PP | --- | Collect Mingle PP by mingling or playing Tin Pin Slammer with friends. You have to communicate wirelessly if you want this type of PP! Here's a little-known fact: every time you make contact with an ESP'er, your Bravery increases. Only the courageous mingle! |

|
||||||
| 463 | (B) Black Cat Atlas, Vol 1 | --- | Did you know that if you pause during battle, you can drag your pins into a new layout? Press SELECT to reset their positions. Changing up the layout of your pins can be fun from time to time, and you can actually make certain pin types more powerful that way! |
|
||||||
| 464 | (B) Black Cat Atlas, Vol 2 | --- | Did you know it's easier to deal damage to Taboo Noise when you're in possession of the light puck? Purposefully NOT passing the puck to your partner is one way to breeze through Taboo Noise fights. See what works best for you! |
|
||||||
| 465 | (B) Black Cat Atlas, Vol 3 | --- | Did you know return speed affects how the puck powers up? Blazing: +0.5x, Quick: +0.2x, Average: +0.1x, Slow: no bonus, Late: -1x. A high sync rate or the "Hold That Puck" ability makes your return speed rating more lenient in addition to keeping the puck in play longer. |
|
||||||
| 466 | (B) Black Cat Atlas, Vol 4 | --- | Did you know a better sync rate will extend the time the light puck stays in play? Be careful not to run away from multiple battles in a row...

|
||||||
| 467 | (B) Black Cat Atlas, Vol 5 | --- | Did you know Neku can pull off better aerial combos by using sub-slots to quickly switch between pin psychs whose touch commands overlap?

|
||||||
| 468 | (B) Black Cat Atlas, Vol 6 | --- | Did you know pins in lower-numbered slots respond to touch commands first? If you can't seem to use a psych, reorder your deck.

|
||||||
| 469 | (B) Black Cat Atlas, Vol 7 | --- | Did you know eating is a science? If you have a lot of time per day, start by eating food that boosts your Attack or Defense. You can always eat 6 more bytes. Use that hollow leg to keep snacking on less filling items that boost Bravery, HP, or sync rate! |
|
||||||
| 470 | (B) Black Cat Atlas, Vol 8 | --- | Did you know item abilities are less about power and more about customization? Pick an outfit "suitable" for the situation at hand.

|
||||||
| 472 | (B) Black Cat Atlas, Vol 10 | --- | Did you know Reaper Creeper can solve all your problems? All you need is a coin, a sheet of paper, and a few crayons.
