Accepting a Request in Yo-kai Watch.
A Quest (Japanese: クエスト kuesuto), also known as a Request prior to Yo-kai Watch 3, is a mission that the player can complete in the Yo-kai Watch games. They are given from various characters around the world and their location is represented by a blue flag icon on the map.
Completing a Quest will reward the player with an Item, depending on the RankYWYW2 or recommended LevelYW3YW4 of the player's Yo-kai. A Bonus Scene will play on completion of a Quest, giving the player the chance at an extra reward. In Yo-kai Watch 3, Bonus Scenes are replaced by a spin on the Dream Wheel.
Overview
Quests are jobs that can be taken by the player by talking to the person with a light blue speech bubble icon above their heads, who are also marked by blue flag icons on the map. Since Yo-kai Watch 2, the full details about the Quest, including the rewards and objectives, are displayed on the top screen before accepting it.
Once the Quest is accepted, it cannot be canceled or deleted. It can be completed at any time in the story but is sometimes the only way to acquire certain items that cannot be found normally.
While working on a Quest, the player can turn on navigation that will lead them to the next objective, represented by a blue arrow. In Yo-kai Watch 4, the blue navigation arrow is replaced by Naviwan, who will guide the player to the area of the objective.
Some Quests are only available at certain times of day or weather, with one example being in Springdale Elementary School which becomes an area filled with Yo-kai during nighttime.
When the player completes a Quest, they will be rewarded with Experience Points, money, and at least one item.
Types of Quests
Favors
A smaller and simpler form of a Quest that can be taken by the player once per in-game day for a small reward.
In Yokai Watch 3, the player accepts favors through the KaiNet app while playing as Hailey.
Key Quests
Introduced in Yo-kai Watch 2, a Key Quest (Japanese: キークエスト kii kuesuto) is a quest that is required in order to progress the main story of the game. There are times where the player has to clear multiple Key Quests to progress.
Mysteries
A Mystery (Japanese: ミステリー Misuterii) is a type of quest that makes an appearance exclusively in Yo-kai Watch 3. This type of quest is distinct by making the player search for clues and sometimes makes a deduction on the answer to the mystery through a dialogue choice. Upon completing a Mystery, a short scene will play before the Dream Wheel with the current character(s) exclaiming "Mystery Solved!" while posing with either Usapyon, Jibanyan and Whisper, or all three.
Mystery Quests are marked by an icon in the upper left corner of the Quest description. For Nate's Quests, the Mystery icon is a purple question mark. For Hailey's Quests, the icon is a deerstalker-and-inverness-cape combo, reminiscent of Sherlock Holmes' famous attire.
Version-exclusive Quests
In Yo-kai Watch 2 and Yo-kai Watch 3, there are version-exclusive Quests that can only be completed if the player either has a copy of Bony Spirits or Fleshy Souls, or Sushi* and Tempura* which give out exclusive rewards and Yo-kai.
The Psychic Specters and Sukiyaki* versions don't offer both quests, but the player has a choice between Spirit or Soul Doughnuts and Sushi or Tempura in their respective games for the selection of Quests that would be available.

Trivia
- Though Requests were renamed to Quests in the English localization of Yo-kai Watch 3, the original Japanese name was always "Quest".
- The screen for clearing a Mystery in Yo-kai Watch 3 is likely a parody of the iconic scene where a puzzle solved in the Professor Layton games, another game created by Level-5.
