Party/Yusuke Kitagawa

This article covers information about Yusuke Kitagawa as a party member, including uses and strategies, in Persona 5 and its spinoffs.
==Overview==
===Persona 5===
Yusuke first becomes playable as early as May 19, right during the end of the Phantom Thieves' second infiltration of Madarame's Palace. He joins at Level 15 by default. He specializes in Ice skills, Physical damage and overall attack accuracy support.
Yusuke is primarily offense-oriented, with almost no support skills. He is sturdier than most allies, having a moderately high Endurance stat. Although his Magic stat is very low, making his Ice attacks weaker, and his Luck is the lowest out of all party members, Yusuke holds the highest Physical power out of the group, making his physical attacks effective and precise. His attack power can be boosted under the effects of Baton Pass, and can become more powerful if he uses Rising Slash or Deadly Fury, which power up themselves further when he's given the baton.
Yusuke has a rich offensive variety, which includes Mind Slice, a weaker Physical attack which has a low chance of inflicting Confuse, encouraging one to be mindful of the situation before selecting a skill. But because Yusuke's movepool is almost completely offensive-based, it leads up to a playstyle that puts him on his toes by gradually dealing damage.
Though strictly specializing as a Physical combatant, due to his frail nature, Yusuke's playstyle forces him to start low and bide his time with the weaker Ice skills. Compared to the risky but powerful Physical skills that are hindered by their HP cost, Ice skills are opportunistic skills due to their high accuracy and unique trait to afflict enemies with Freeze, stunning stunning them for 3 turns though they'll thaw upon being hit, but are exposed to Technical damage from Physical skills among other affinities. The ailment gives Yusuke the chance to respond with otherwise risky Physical maneuvers, as not only are frozen combatants unable to evade, Ice skills nullify any and all resistances to Physical and Gun, so for Yusuke, this approach guarantees he lands a clean, powerful hit against the enemy. Though Ice skills have no special benefits in terms of power compared to other combatants, this lack of advantage forces Yusuke to default to them to utilize them to their fullest extent.
Yusuke's fighting style is defined by his emphasis on accuracy/evasion and gaining the upper hand on the enemy via accuracy advantage. This is reflected in various Support: he has Sukukaja and Masukukaja, being able to enhance his accuracy and evasion, as well as those of his allies. This not only sharpens Yusuke's own attack accuracy, as not only is his Agility low, but Physical skills in general have a reduced hit rate, but it makes it much more difficult for enemies to land hits in turn, especially ones who are Physical-oriented. This alternative allows Yusuke to switch gears to Physical combat straight away, guaranteeing that he has the advantage, at least until his agility boost has expired, forcing Yusuke to retreat back to Ice skills.
Yusuke can also be able to increase his own accuracy during the start of the battle once he learns Speed Master, which allows him to strike immediately without the need to spend his first turn boosting his accuracy.
Yusuke's evasion against Physical attacks, on the other hand, can be indirectly boosted through Counter, which grants him a chance of reflecting any Physical attacks back. Because of these various supporting properties, Yusuke's specialty is in raw Physical combat, and is especially prepared against enemies that specifically focus on Physical attacks due to his ability to not only exploit the element's technical weaknesses, but also utilize its advantages.
Yusuke's emphasis on accuracy/evasion defines his fighting style, which relies primarily on having the accuracy advantage over the enemy. Aside from Sukukaja skills, Yusuke's primary skill pool has no other support skills. On the bad side, even though he can cover-up for his low accuracy with Sukukaja, it requires him to constantly use up turns to do so, and even when he gets Speed Master, fights that last longer than 3 turns can be detrimental for Yusuke. As such, it is recommended to only use against enemies that demand an agility buff to be overwhelmed.
Yusuke is resistant to Ice, and is weak against Fire. As he uses Ice skills, it is possible for his attacks to inflict Freeze, making them unable to move, which allows the party to stall if possible. Technical damage can be performed with a Physical or a Nuclear skill. Additionally, the ailment removes any resistances the enemy has towards Physical and Gun. The important thing about the ailment, however, is that it disappears after one hit, so the party has only one chance to exploit it. Because of this property, Yusuke does not learn any skill that helps him increase the odds of afflicting Freeze.
Unlike other combatants, Yusuke puts minimal emphasis on his Magic skills, as aside from the standard attacks, and he has no additional elemental utility to learn, such as Boost/Amp skills, Break and ailment Boost. Yusuke's Ice skills in this case are a less effective alternative to his stronger Physical skills that have weaker damage for greater accuracy by default: although one aspect of Magic skills is to exploit weaknesses, Ice skills can be used to simply finish off any weak enemies, nearly guaranteeing that his attacks don't miss. Otherwise, the option of using Ice skills grants the ability to spare his HP gauge whether he's run out or wishes to save up on some. Otherwise, due to the ailment's property to ignore resistances, it is highly recommended for Yusuke to switch to using Ice attacks whenever his Physical attacks become unusable.
If the protagonist maxes out Yusuke's Confidant, his Persona Goemon will evolve into Kamu Susano-o. This will make him resistant to Wind and completely block Ice. It'll also become possible for him to learn Evade Fire, a skill which makes him more evasive of Fire attacks.
Yusuke's strongest melee weapon is Usumidori which is created by itemizing Yoshitsune, which has a high chance of inflicting Fear on his foe. Yusuke's strongest ranged weapon is Heaven's Gate which is created via an Electric Chair Execution on Uriel, which gives him Ag+10 once equipped.

====Persona 5 Royal====
In Persona 5 Royal, in place of Mind Slice, an attack which can inflict Confuse, Yusuke can learn Dormin Rush at Level 27, which can inflict Sleep instead. When inflicted, the enemy will instead be able to recover their HP and SP in place of doing nothing and potentially supporting the group. However, everyone, Yusuke included, can deal a single Technical blow at the enemy.
The attribute of Giant Slice, one of Yusuke's innate skills, has been changed, which is now boosted when under the effects of Baton Pass.
Yusuke can learn Showtime attacks with Ryuji Sakamoto and Ann Takamaki each. He can unlock his Showtime with Ryuji starting from July 17, and with Ann, on September 19.
Yusuke's Persona Trait is Scoundrel Eyes, which may slightly increase allies' chance of evading physical attacks. This in turn further increases Yusuke's own evasion against Physical skills, stacked with automatic Counter and manual Sukukaja skills.
If Yusuke's Confidant has been maxed out, starting from January 16th, a special Third Awakening scene will become available, where Yusuke's Persona will merge into Gorokichi. This will give him the skill Hyakka Ryouran, which buffs the attack, defense, accuracy and evasion of the entire party for 3 turns. Additionally, his Persona Trait will evolve into Unparalleled Eyes, which boosts the chance of his allies evading physical attacks to an even higher degree.
Both of Yusuke's strongest weapon options remain the same in terms of acquiring them, though fusing them during a fusion alarm will grant their strongest variation. Usumidori becomes Usumidori R, which has a high chance of inflicting Freeze when it's used. Heaven's Gate becomes Providence, which gives him Ag+13.
===Persona 5 Strikers===
Yusuke's stats in Persona 5 Strikers haven't changed from Persona 5 too much, aside from a few stat boosts. Additionally, his skillpool is very similar, meaning Yusuke's role in Strikers is mostly the same as before.
One difference in his skillpool is that he no longer has any skills that exploit Baton Passes. Instead, he can learn Knockdown Style, a Passive skill which improves the rate at decreasing the Down gauge when the user inflicts Critical hits.
==Strategies==
===With Party Members===
====Yusuke & Morgana====
Morgana can use his Masukunda to help give room for Yusuke to perform offensive attacks more often, without the need for his accuracy to be buffed. Additionally, the two can work together to maximize both the party's accuracy and evasion.
Additionally, Yusuke may make use of Morgana's Lucky Punch set of skills to gain an easy opening in Baton Pass, which can definitely speed up the pace on the waiting time between Yusuke having Frozen enemies and exploiting Technical damage on them, allowing the rest of the party to act that much quicker.
====Yusuke & Ryuji====
Ryuji's style of attack co-aligns with Yusuke's, as Ryuji has emphasis on heavy, concentrated damage on one-target, with an alternative of spreading moderate damage against all enemies. If Yusuke has Frozen any targets and requires that those enemies be left alone for him, Ryuji can either focus on another specific enemy until Yusuke's next turn, or take up Yusuke's Frozen target by using Charge and conclude with a powerful blow.
Should there be no Frozen enemies yet, Ryuji can instead switch his style to dealing multi-target damage, and should he land a Critical, it will give Yusuke an opening for Baton Pass, letting him take out a single enemy with increased damage from both the multiplier of the Baton and from the multiplier of his own attacks (Rising Slash & Deadly Fury.) That way, Ryuji and Yusuke can both switch their roles on who gets to attack all enemies, and who should focus on one enemy.
Both Yusuke and Ryuji can use their elemental spells to afflict ailments (Freeze and Shock respectively), before using their Physical attacks to afflict Technical damage. This can be especially beneficial in the scenario that they exploit weakness, as they can exploit the Baton Pass system to further stack their damage against the afflicted enemies.
====Yusuke & Ann====
As a slow-paced combatant, Ann can help stall enemies via her ability to afflict all enemies with Confuse (P5) or Sleep (P5R) at the start of battle, especially against overwhelming hordes, which can give Yusuke proper footing and opportunity to buff his accuracy or be buffed.
====Yusuke & Makoto====
As Makoto is support-oriented, she can easily give room for Yusuke should he require space to deal Technical damage on Frozen enemies, and if necessary, cover for him with her Nuclear attacks in case the Frozen enemy resists Physical skills, although that doesn't apply as often in Royal, as Freeze now pierces Physical and Gun.
Makoto's support ranges from healing and defense: the latter can be used to heal Yusuke, especially as Physical attacks require he uses his HP. Should his HP be full already, Makoto can buff his defenses with Rakukaja, making it that much harder for Yusuke's health to be depleted.
====Yusuke & Haru====
Haru is efficient in exploiting Critical hits in terms of versatility, as she can either rely on multi-target Gun skills (Triple Down) or focus on one enemy (One-shot Kill, which has a high Critical rate), making her adaptive to Yusuke's offensive style, letting her use Triple Down whenever no enemies are Frozen.
Additionally, Yusuke can indirectly increase Haru's Critical rate by enhancing her attack accuracy.
====Yusuke, Morgana & Haru====
Morgana and Haru are a perfect fit for Yusuke in helping him exploit Baton Passes via Critical hits. The reason why is that both Morgana and Haru can use single-target attacks to exploit Critical hits (with Lucky Punch/Miracle Punch and One-shot Kill), without having to get in Yusuke's way should he be focused on a Frozen enemy.
====Yusuke, Ryuji & Makoto====
With Ryuji as a secondary offender and Makoto as support, the trio can co-operate in expoiting Technicals while also defending one-another. The only rule is that Ryuji and Makoto go before Yusuke, should Makoto focus on exploiting Technical damage from Shocked enemies, or have Makoto go last, as to support the boys.
* If Yusuke's frozen enemies with Ice skills, Ryuji and Makoto cannot attack all enemies, but they can either focus on one, or support him with Tarukaja and healing.
* If Yusuke's exploiting Technical attacks with Physical skills or buffing himself with Sukukaja, Ryuji can focus on Shocking enemies for Technical damage, and Makoto could follow-up with Technical damage.
In Royal, this combination grants access to both of Ryuji's Showtimes with the other combatants.
