** The trophy system is much different in this game. From ''Yo-kai Watch 2'' and onward, trophies are an AchievementSystem where you receive bronze, silver, or gold trophies for completing certain goals. In this game, you get trophies by catching a specific Yo-criminal three times to get it to give you three parts of a password. Entering the password in the Lambert post office will net you the trophy for that specific Yo-criminal.
