| <center>img</center> || <div style="padding:1em;">By default, the template will automatically add the Demon's sprite as <code><nowiki>[[File:SMT4 {{{PAGENAME}}} Sprite.png]]</nowiki></code>. The <code>img=</code> parameter inputs a different subject name to call the sprite from. This should be used if the Demon's in-game name differs from the article name.</div>

By default, the template will automatically add the Demon's icon as <code><nowiki>[[File:SMT4 {{{PAGENAME}}} Sprite.png]]</nowiki></code>. The <code>img=</code> parameter inputs a different subject name to call the sprite from. This should be used if the Demon's in-game name differs from the article title, or if the title has a discriminator in it.<br/><br/>If the stat table is to be [[Guidelines:Gameplay#Transcluding Sections|transcluded]] onto another page, then the img and name parameters must be used.</div>

| <center>race / raceredirect</center> || <div style="padding:1em;">The race parameters display the Demon's race, which can be viewed in the status screen or Analyze. The <code>race=</code> parameter will automatically link to the named race's page.<br/><br/>If the race has a different name in-game from the race page, use <code>raceredirect=</code> instead to manually link to the appropriate race page or section. This must be formatted with brackets.</div>

Race can be viewed in the Demon's status screen or in Analyze.<br/><br/>If the Race has a different name in-game from the article or if the title has a discriminator in it, use <code>raceredirect=</code> to redirect the link to the appropriate Race page or section. The Race name entered in <code>race=</code> will therefore become the link's display name.</div>

| <center>align</center> || <div style="padding:1em;">In ''Shin Megami Tensei IV'' and ''Apocalypse'', Alignment is factored with the skills [[Holy Wrath]], [[Judgement (Skill)|Judgment]], and [[Sea of Chaos]]. A Demon's Alignment can be viewed in its dictionary entry. As only Law, Neutral, and Chaos are displayed, use just these.</div>

| <center>Basic attack</center> || <div style="padding:1em;">The <code>hit=</code>, <code>element=</code>, <code>target=</code>, and <code>effect=</code> parameters are used to render the Demon's basic attack description, which can be viewed by highlighting its basic attack during battle. By default, this is rendered as the default description: "1 attack(s) with the Phys element / Target: 1 enemy / Add: None".</div>
| <center>cost</center> || <div style="padding:1em;">Displays the base cost to summon the Demon from the [[Demon Compendium|Compendium]]. This cost should reflect the Demon's base stats without any alterations.</div>

| <center>fusioncondition</center> || <div style="padding:1em;">Optional; does not display when parameter is omitted. Displays the conditional criteria needed to be able to fuse this Demon, such as clearing a Challenge Quest or defeating a boss. This parameter should be kept concise; any complicated explanations should be explained outside of the stat table in its own paragraph. For Challenge Quest conditions, this can be formatted as <code><nowiki>Clear "[[Challenge Quest Name]]"</nowiki></code>. For bosses, this can be formatted as <code><nowiki>Defeat [[Boss Name]]</nowiki></code>.</div>

|-
| <center>Resistances</center> || <div style="padding:1em;">Element resistance parameters have two sets of rows: the first is used for the in-game resistance UI (Wk, Rs, Nu, Dr, Rp), the second is used for precise fractional values reflecting data found in the ''[[Shin Megami Tensei IV Official Complete Guide]]''. Ailment resistance parameters use fractional values.<br/><br/>The fraction parameters default to ×1 to indicate neutral resistance. Fractions are added by inputting the equivalent numerical value (i.e. "2" for ×2, "1.5" for ×1.5, etc).</div>
| <center>location</center> || <div style="padding:1em;">Optional; does not display when parameter is omitted. Displays where the Demon can be found or how to obtain. If the Demon can be encountered in multiple locations, list the earliest appearance in the parameter and all other subsequent appearances in an [[Template:Exp|Exp]] tooltip.<br/><br/>If the Demon can only be obtained through fusion methods, add <code><nowiki>[[Fusion]] only</nowiki></code>, <code><nowiki>[[Fusion Accident]] only</nowiki></code>, or <code><nowiki>[[Special Fusion]]</nowiki></code> followed by an Exp tooltip listing the necessary Demons. See the [[Guidelines:Gameplay|Gameplay guidelines]] for full instruction on listing Demon locations.</div>

| <center>Resistances</center> || <div style="padding:1em;">Element resistance parameters have two sets of rows: the first is used for the in-game resistance UI (Wk, Rs, Nu, Dr, Rp), the second is used for precise fractional values reflecting data found in the ''[[Shin Megami Tensei IV Official Complete Guide]]''. Ailment resistance parameters use fractional values only.<br/><br/>The fraction parameters default to ×1 to indicate neutral resistance. Fractions are added by inputting the equivalent numerical value (i.e. "2" for ×2, "1.5" for ×1.5, etc). See the [[Guidelines:Gameplay|Gameplay guidelines]] for full instruction on documenting resistances.</div>
|-
|-
| <center>skills</center> || <div style="padding:1em;">Use [[Template:Skill]] to add skills and the level they are learned at, if applicable. Skill information is called from [[Template:Data/Skill/SMT4]]. This stat table will display the skill name, cost, description, and level.</div>
| <center>Evolution</center>  || <div style="padding:1em;">The <code>evolvefrom=</code>, <code>fromlevel=</code>, <code>evolveto=</code>, and <code>tolevel=</code> parameters are used to display evolution information if applicable to the Demon. The evolution row is hidden by default and is only displayed if any of its parameters are used.
|-
| <center>Basic attack</center> || <div style="padding:1em;">The <code>hit=</code>, <code>element=</code>, <code>target=</code>, and <code>effect=</code> parameters are used to render the Demon's basic attack description, which can be viewed by highlighting its basic attack during battle.
