Use <font color=magenta>Training Toys</font> to play with Spirits and you can help them grow.
<br>
Fighting alongside Spirits or bonding with them will earn them <font color=magenta>Link Points (LP)</font>.
<br>
LP can be spent on the <font color=magenta>Ability Link</font> board to unlock new commands and abilities for you.
<br>
Point the camera at the <font color=magenta>AR Card</font> included with this game to bond with that Spirit in AR!
<br>
You can pet Spirits in this mode, or give them certain items.
;Rescuing Spirits

<br>
Don't let that happen! Get close to your Spirit and rescue it by tapping {{button|dsa}} until you fill up the gauge.
