A Yo-kai Hero (Japanese: 妖怪HERO (ヒーロー) Yōkai Hīrō) is a human that gains the power of a specific Yo-kai, Onryo or Alien, mostly with the YSP Watch or similar devices via a transformation in the Y School Heroes series.

They contain a stronger power than the Onryo or Yo-kai themselves, each of them giving off a unique appearance and power they can fight opponents with. Their attacks are represented by Command Medals which can be activated when inserted into the YSP Watch.

It has a alternate hero form called Majin Hero.

It has another variant called Ancient Yo-kai Hero, where this the fusion of the original Yo-kai Hero with the power of the Classic Yo-kai.

Overview[]

A human can transform into a Yo-kai Hero by putting in the Y Medal of the Yo-kai Hero when their respective Onryo are around. The YSP Watch is turned anti-clockwise while the summoning jingle plays and transforms the bearer into the hero itself, giving them strength to fight enemies.

Each Yo-kai Hero has a specific power that can be altered by putting in different kinds of Command Y Medals, giving the hero a unique ability.
