Unique Characters
This section includes the protagonists' stats and the characters who use their designs from Samurai Warriors 3. These characters can obtain new stats and costumes based on their current Rank, or strength level.


 * Rank I~III (Starter -> Bushou -> Best Commander) - Protagonists and Hideyoshi only
 * Rank II (Bushou -> Best Commander) - everyone else

The multiple numbers and abilities listed in each character's column reflects their respective strengths for each Rank. The first listed Pokémon for each character is the one the character should bond with in order to level up their rank. Once they have leveled up, they can use other Best Link Pokémon/Legendary Pokémon.

How to Level Up
Only the protagonist can be leveled up to Rank III in the main story.

The rest of the cast can obtain their secondary form in the post-game episodes. Characters require at least 50-80% linkage with their Best Link Pokémon to obtain their secondary rank. Characters with more specific unlocking methods are listed below:


 * Nobunaga - unlock his scenario and play it. Build 80%+ Link with Hydreigon during his story.
 * Ginchiyo and Muneshige - keep both characters separated in different castles. 60%+ Link with their respective Best Link Pokémon.
 * Motonari - collect over 100 Pokémon. 50%+ Link with Servine or Serperior.
 * Mitsuhide - unlock and finish his episode. 70%+ Link with Lapras or Articuno.
 * Nene - collect every Poison type Pokémon. 60%+ Link with Golbat or Crobat.
 * Shingen and Kenshin - unlock and finish both of their personal episodes. 75%+ Link with their respective Best Link Pokémon.
 * Masamune - unlock his scenario and play it. Build 60%+ Link with Rufflet or Braviary during his story.
 * Nouhime - collect every Ghost type Pokémon. 60%+ Link with Misdreavus or Mismagius.
 * Ieyasu - collect 50 characters in the Collection. 70%+ Link with Aggron or Registeel. Do not build link before assembling characters as it may null his chances of leveling up.
 * Hanbei and Kanbei - keep both characters separated in different castles. 60%+ Link with their respective Best Link Pokémon.
 * Yukimura - have him and Shingen in the same castle. 65%+ Link with Charmeleon or Charizard.
 * Magoichi - have him in the same castle as three female characters (protagonist does not count). 60%+ Link with Grovyle or Sceptile.
 * Kanetsugu - station him and Kenshin in the same castle. 60%+ Link with Kadabra or Alakzam.
 * Ranmaru - place him in the same castle as Nobunaga. 60%+ Link with Riolu or Lucario.
 * Tadakatsu - transfer him to a castle which has both Ieyasu and Ina within it. 80%+ Link with Metagross.

Generics
Generics cannot be leveled up (Rank I only) so they have the same, constant stats throughout the game. Like Unique characters, their collected Pokémon can be saved and reused if the player so desires.
