Spirit Battles[edit]| Spirit | Battle parameters | Inspiration |
|---|
| No. | Image | Name | Enemy Fighter(s) | Type | Power | Stage | Rules | Conditions | Music |
|---|
| 1,306 | Phantom Thieves of Hearts | •Joker
•Sheik
•Chrom
•Zero Suit Samus
•Captain Falcon
•Pikachu | 13,300 | Mementos (Haru Okumura background, hazards off) | •Sudden Final Smash
•Item: Daybreak Parts | •The enemy will suddenly have a Final Smash when the enemy's at high damage
•Reinforcements will appear during the battle | Wake Up, Get Up, Get Out There | - The puppet fighters representing the Phantom Thieves appear in the order that they are recruited in the original game. Their leader Joker appears at the end, using All-Out Attack alongside his allies. The only exceptions are Haru Okumura (who appears in the background instead), Futaba Sakura (who serves as a guide rather than participating in combat), and Goro Akechi.
- Aside from the Sudden Final Smash condition that references their All-Out Attack, the appearance of Daybreak references the name of the game's OVA adaption. It could also be a reference to Sinful Shell, a skill which is used to defeat the final boss Yaldabaoth at the very end of the game.
| | 1,307 | Igor | •Robin
•Ridley (x3) | 10,600 | Kalos Pokémon League (hazards off) | •Health Recovery
•Item: Assist Trophy | •Defeat the main fighter to win
•Start with 300% damage
•You are healed significantly after a little while | Aria of the Soul | - The stage and music represent the Velvet Room, of which Igor is the proprietor.
- While the Robin puppet fighter represents Igor, the three Ridleys likely represent the residents of the Velvet Room that assist him; the only game in the series that features three assistants is Persona 2.
- The Assist Trophy items represent how meeting Igor results in the protagonists awakening and summoning their Personas. This 'awakening' aspect is also represented through the player starting with 300% damage and healing over time.
| | 1,308 | Caroline & Justine | •Ice Climbers | 9,700 | Kalos Pokémon League (hazards off) | •Sudden Damage | •You take serious damage after a little while
•Timed battle | Aria of the Soul | - The stage and music represent the Velvet Room, of which Caroline and Justine are residents.
- The timed nature and sudden damage condition reference the bonus boss fight against Caroline and Justine within Persona 5, which requires the Phantom Thieves to deal a certain amount of damage every six turns or else be wiped out by an All-Out Attack.
| | 1,309 | Morgana | •Pikachu
•Giant Incineroar | 11,500 | Mementos (hazards off) | •Hazard: Heavy Wind | •Defeat the main fighter to win
•Dangerously high winds are in effect after a little while
•Reinforcements will appear during the battle | Last Surprise | - Morgana's puppet fighter is Pikachu in its Pikachu Libre costume, another small masked creature. Both Morgana and Pikachu share Ikue Ōtani as their Japanese voice actress.
- The strong winds and Incineroar's Ore Club represent Morgana's Persona, Zorro, who has wind powers.
| | 1,310 | Ryuji Sakamoto | •Captain Falcon
•Giant Mii Gunner (Pirate Hat, Steampunk Getup) | 4,800 | Luigi's Mansion (Battlefield form) | •N/A | •Defeat the main fighter to win
•The enemy starts the battle with a Home-Run Bat | Last Surprise | - Captain Falcon's attire represents the outfit worn by Ryuji as the Phantom Thief, Skull. The Home-Run Bat references how Ryuji uses bludgeoning weapons.
- Mii Gunner represents Ryuji's Persona, Captain Kidd.
- The stage resembles the exterior of Suguru Kamoshida's Palace, where Joker and Ryuji first awaken their Personas.
| | 1,311 | Ann Takamaki | •Zero Suit Samus
•Giant Peach | 4,500 | Castle Siege (Throne Room) | •Item: Fire Flower | •Defeat the main fighter to win | Last Surprise | - Zero Suit Samus' skintight outfit resembles the outfit worn by Ann as the Phantom Thief, Panther.
- The stage resembles the interior of Kamoshida's palace, which is where Ann is recruited.
- Peach represents Ann's Persona, Carmen. The Fire Flower items represent Carmen's fire powers.
| | 1,312 | Yusuke Kitagawa | •Chrom
•Giant King Dedede | 2,500 | Suzaku Castle (Battlefield form) | •Assist Trophy Enemies (Vince) | •Defeat the main fighter to win
•Hostile assist trophies will appear after a little while | Last Surprise | - Like Chrom, Yusuke is a blue-haired swordfighter, and both share Matthew Mercer and Tomokazu Sugita as their English and Japanese voice actors respectively.
- King Dedede represents Yusuke's Persona, Goemon, who is also known for using powerful physical and ice-based attacks.
- The Vince Assist Trophy references how Yusuke is an artist who designs the Phantom Thieves' logo.
- The stage references how Yusuke's teacher, Ichiryusai Madarame, utilizes traditional Japanese imagery in his design and palace.
| | 1,313 | Makoto Niijima | •Sheik
•Giant Clear Wario | 3,000 | Dracula's Castle (Ω form) | •N/A | •Defeat the main fighter to win
•The enemy is invisible | Last Surprise | - Sheik's black costume resembles Makoto's outfit as the Phantom Thief, Queen.
- An invisible Wario appears, preferring to use his Wario Bike. This references Makoto's Persona, Johanna, which takes the form of an animate motorcycle.
- The stage choice resembles Kaneshiro's Palace, where Makoto joins the Phantom Thieves. It could also be a reference to how Makoto is scared of ghosts.
| | 1,314 | Futaba Sakura | 2,900 | Mushroomy Kingdom (Battlefield form) | •Item Tidal Wave (Boss Galaga)
•Assist Trophy Enemies (Wily Capsule) | •Timed battle
•Hostile assist trophies will appear
•Items will be pulled toward the enemy | Beneath the Mask | - Futaba's puppet fighter is the default female Inkling; a puppet fighter using its default costume within a spirit battle is rare, and may be due to their similar appearances.
- Wily Capsule resembles Futaba's Persona, Necronomicon, which takes the form of a UFO with a human pilot (being Dr. Wily and Futaba respectively). This is also referenced through the Boss Galaga enemies, which may also represent Futaba's fondness for video games.
- The stage choice is a reference to the Egyptian styling of Futaba's palace.
- While most of the Phantom Thieves have Last Surprise—the standard battle theme—as the music for their spirit battles, Futaba's has Beneath the Mask—the overworld theme—which reflects that she never directly participates in battle.
| | 1,315 | Haru Okumura | •Villager
•Giant Daisy | 2,300 | Tomodachi Life (Ω form) | •Item Tidal Wave | •Defeat the main fighter to win
•Certain items will appear in large numbers after a little while | Last Surprise | - Haru is a gardener, so salads appear in the Item Tidal Wave and her Villager puppet fighter often plants trees. The stage choice also references this, as her garden is on the rooftop of the Shujin Academy.
- Daisy represents Haru's Persona, Milady. She starts with a Super Scope, since Milady uses gun-based skills.
- The stage choice references the fact that Haru often hangs out on the rooftop of the school taking care of plants.
| | 1,316 | Goro Akechi | •Marth
•Giant Pit | 3,800 | Fourside (Battlefield form) | •Hazard: Left Is Right, Right Is Left | •Defeat the main fighter to win
•Left and right controls will suddenly reverse | Rivers In the Desert | - Marth's white costume represents Akechi's outfit as the Phantom Thief, Crow.
- Pit represents Akechi's Persona, Robin Hood, who is also an archer with a mostly white color scheme.
- The stage choice references Sae Niijima's palace, a large casino which Akechi works with the Phantom Thieves to infiltrate.
- The reversal of controls alludes to how Akechi can inflict psychotic episodes in people.
- Much like Futaba, Akechi doesn't use Last Surprise as his battle theme. Instead his battle has Rivers in the Desert, which is a reference to his father Masayoshi Shido, who uses Rivers in the Desert as his battle theme.

Series Order[edit]| Number | Name | Series |
|---|
| 1,304 | Joker (Phantom Thief) | Persona Series | | 1,305 | Joker (Student) | | 1,306 | Phantom Thieves of Hearts | | 1,307 | Igor | | 1,308 | Caroline & Justine | | 1,309 | Morgana | | 1,310 | Ryuji Sakamoto | | 1,311 | Ann Takamaki | | 1,312 | Yusuke Kitagawa | | 1,313 | Makoto Niijima | | 1,314 | Futaba Sakura | | 1,315 | Haru Okumura | | 1,316 | Goro Akechi |
Trivia[edit]- Both Morgana and Yusuke Kitagawa's spirit battles relate to how they share the same voice actor as their fighter, as Morgana shares his Japanese voice actress with Pikachu (which itself is actually referenced in Persona 5), and Yusuke shares both his Japanese and English voice actors with Chrom.
- In the Phantom Thieves of Hearts battle, Haru Okumura is the only Phantom Thief who will appear in the background. As a result, the character who represents her in her spirit battle, Villager, does not appear in the spirit battle.
- Additionally, Futaba Sakura is the only Phantom Thief in the Phantom Thieves of Hearts spirit battle to not appear in any capacity outside of Joker's All-Out Attack Final Smash, as she cannot appear in the background for Mementos nor does the character who represents her in her spirit battle, Inkling, appear in the spirit battle.
- Likewise, Goro Akechi is the only Phantom Thief to not appear in any capacity outside of his spirit battle, as he does not appear in the background of Mementos or appear during Joker's All-Out Attack Final Smash, and the Marth that represents him is not present during the Phantom Thieves of Hearts spirit battle, reflecting his absence from said spirit's artwork.
- The Phantom Thieves of Hearts battle is the first spirit battle in the game to have a DLC fighter as the Puppet Fighter (Joker).
- In all versions of Ultimate, Ryuji Sakamoto's spirit does not have a Rising Sun Flag symbol on his shoe, matching a similar censoring done in the Chinese and Korean versions of Persona 5 due to the symbol being considered offensive in Asia.
