Skill Card

Skill cards are cards that grant their associated skills to any Persona. They debuted in Persona 2: Innocent Sin and have returned in multiple Persona games since.

Mechanics

Skill Cards can be used to teach a Persona the skill with the same name as the card—a Media card will teach a selected Persona Media. The feature allows players to customize Personas by giving them skills they normally would not be able to learn or inherit. While the basics are the same, how the cards are acquired and how the player can gain multiple copies varies game to game.

Mechanics by Game

Persona 2: Innocent Sin

	No reason provided.

When summoning a Persona from the Velvet Room, a Skill Card can be used to teach them an additional skill. The added skill becomes available immediately upon summoning.

Skill Cards cannot be used if they are incompatible with the Persona's type or to teach a Persona more than eight skills.

Persona 2: Eternal Punishment

Skill Cards can be bought from Time Castle if the right rumor is spread. A limited selection is available from the start, but additional cards can be added to their inventory by registering them with the Time Count so he can copy them.

Outside of that, Skill Cards are unchanged from Innocent Sin.

Persona 3 Portable

Personas can give skill cards upon reaching certain levels, similar to how skills are generally gained.

The player can go to Inari Sushi at Naganaki Shrine, where they can give a skill card that is randomly chosen from the ones they currently possess to receive a duplicate after 5 days. The player may re-select the skill card at no cost as many times as desired, though the selection is still random.

Persona 4 Golden

Main article: List of Skill Cards in Persona 4 Golden

Skill Cards are a new feature added to Persona 4 Golden.

There are two primary ways to obtain them:

1. Choose sword cards during Shuffle Time. This will reward the player with a random skill card of varying ranks depending on the dungeon. The cards that are exclusive to Shuffle Time and not obtainable via Cafe Chagall are: Sonic Punch, Single Shot, Assault Dive, Double Fangs, Twin Shot, Rebellion, Trafuri, Traesto, and Null Poison.
2. Visit Chagall Cafe in Okina city during the afternoon while equipped with a Persona that has a skill with a skill card icon (starting with the 2nd visit): . After getting a card from a summoned Persona, the icon will disappear, but the player can re-summon the Persona from the Compendium with the skill card icon if desired. Some Personas must be leveled before they learn these skills. The cards that are exclusive to Chagall Cafe and not obtainable via Shuffle Time are: Debilitate, Heat Riser, Unshaken Will, Victory Cry, and Insta-Heal.

Additionally, there are two dates when Tanaka sells Skill Cards on the Sunday TV shopping program:

1. July 11, 2011: Growth 2
2. January 10, 2012: Auto-Mataru

After obtaining a card through any of these methods, cards can be given to Marie or Margaret in the Velvet Room and they will sell the player copies for a price.

Persona 5

Skill cards can be found in the world or created by itemizing the appropriate Persona, requiring a Blank Card as material. Additionally, after unlocking Yusuke Kitagawa's Confidant, Ren can ask him to duplicate skill cards.

In Persona 5 Royal, a Fusion Alarm will upgrade the skills granted by itemization.

Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth

Skill Cards can be extracted from Sub-Personas in the Velvet Room once the party has reached the 3rd floor of the Evil Spirit Club. Similarly to Persona 4 Golden, each Sub-Persona will have one extractable skill, which they must have learned and not forgotten. Skill cards can then be used on Main Personas to teach them one skill on their "Skill Card" slots.

Persona Q2: New Cinema Labyrinth

Skill Cards are items used in Sacrifice Fusion to transfer their extractable skill to the recipient Sub-Persona; unlike other games, skill cards will not "store" a skill and are consumed immediately during the sacrifice. The player can also acquire Wild Cards, which allow Sub-Personas to transfer an extractable skill to a Main Persona.
