＜Story＞
In Hawaii, Kasuga reunites with the researcher known as the Sujimon Sensei, an old ally.
The Sujimon Sensei refers to dangerous individuals in the city as Sujimon, and has created an app called the Sujidex to collect data on them for the sake of the peace.
Shortly after their reunion, Kasuga is taken to a place called the Sujimon Stadium, where he witnesses a competition known as the Suji League. However, illegal betting on Sujimon matches was taking place there. The Suji League was once a wholesome competition where skills were tested, and the Sujimon Sensei participated in it passionately. But over time, individuals driven by profit intervened, transforming it into a gambling spectacle.
Moved by the Sujimon Sensei’s desire to restore the Suji League to its former glory, Kasuga decides to participate as a Sujimon Trainer and resolves to confront the mastermind hidden behind the tournament.
・Sujimon Battles
Sujimon battles are team competitions where Sujimon engage in 3-vs-3 battles. Kasuga takes command as a trainer to bring his team together and aim for victory.
Teams consist of three starting members and can have up to three substitutes, for a maximum total of six Sujimon. Sujimon have five different types, each with different affinities. Find a team strategy that suits you, whether that be balancing your team, trying out a highly specialized one, or anything in between.
The core strategy in Sujimon battles is to assess enemy traits, issue commands that will give you an advantage, and swap out your Sujimon as needed over the course of each battle. Boost ally morale with strategic commands and unleash their special attacks to bring victory within reach.
・Snag Some Sujimon!
After you’ve finished a battle on the streets of Hawaii, you’ll sometimes have the opportunity to recruit a Sujimon.
You’ll successfully recruit them if you sincerely offer a Suji Gift and they accept it. Take advantage of every opportunity to recruit allies!
There are also raids, where those confident in their strength gather to fight. Defeating a Sujimon in a raid means you’re guaranteed a chance to recruit them!
Raids will vanish after a while, so try your best not to miss out on them.
One more method is to try your luck at the Sujimon Gacha spots existing around Hawaii, where you can use cash or gacha tickets to get Sujimon.
・Train Those Sujimon!
The Sujimon that join your team can be trained through strengthening, awakening, and evolution. To strengthen your Sujimon, give them some Sujimunch, a nutritional drink uniquely designed for Sujimon.
Awakening occurs when you feed a Sujimon another of their same species, which unlocks their potential and enhances their parameters. Furthermore, when you repeatedly awaken the same Sujimon and push them to the limit of their potential, they just might evolve.
Train your favorite Sujimon to build up the ultimate team!
・Here are Two of the Various Sujimon that You Can Find around Hawaii!
Freakalele
Soothes his allies with the timbre of his beloved ukulele, and occasionally wields it as a blunt instrument.
A healer Sujimon who spends his winnings on ukulele repairs.
Dosukoi Gigantes
A super-heavyweight fighter whose physique not unlike an iron wall gives off an air of dignity to any who behold him.
Despite his appearance, his movements are sharp, with a powerful spinning kick serving as his special attack.
・Change Into the New Job, Sujimancer, and Summon the Sujimon You’ve Trained to Battle!
As you progress through the Sujimon battle storyline, a new job unique to Ichiban Kasuga, Sujimancer, will be unlocked.
Sujimancer is Kasuga’s unique battle style that harnesses the power of trained Sujimon to fight. It allows Kasuga to summon various Sujimon, giving him a range of different options in combat. The job is unique in that it grows stronger for every Sujimon you train and nurture. Raise your favorite Sujimon with care so they can shine in battle.
・Sujimon also Play a Significant Role on Dondoko Island!
After restoring Dondoko Island enough, you’ll unlock Dondoko Farm. At the farm, you can train the Sujimon you’ve befriended in Hawaii to raise their levels.
Sujimon will also play a role in the restoration of Dondoko Island by growing crops and earning money that can be spent on the island. As Sujimon carry out tasks and training, their friendship with Kasuga increases, enabling them to excel even more in Sujimon battles.
Make the most of Dondoko Farm to develop the island and nurture your Sujimon.
On Dondoko Farm, pests such as wild boars and bears may appear and damage the crop patches. When that happens, you can have your Sujimon repel the pests through Sujimon battles. Driving away the pests not only protects the crop patches but will also get you Dondoko Sirloin, which makes for a great island souvenir. Make sure to train your Sujimon well to reap these rewards.
