The concept of a skill refers to a physical action that cannot be described as a regular attack or a spell, and there exists a great variety of actions contained therein. A skill can be something as simple as [[Rib-Tickler|cracking a joke]] to summoning a [[That Special Summon|demigod from another dimension]], and as carefree as gently [[Hymn of Air|strumming a harp]] to filling oneself with [[Channel Anger|overwhelming rage]]. Skills can be differentiated from spells in the following ways between each game in the series:

==Breath skills==
{{Monster}}s breathing fire has been a part of world mythology since prehistory, and has been a part of the {{Main Series}} series since the beginning. All breath attacks can be doubled in power for one turn by using [[Deep Breath]] on the previous turn. Breath attacks are the skills closest to spells in that they have a series of counter abilities just like magic: [[Insulatle]] reduces damage, [[Backdraft]] bounces the attack back, and [[Gobstopper]] prevents a character from using breath altogether, and so on.

===Water skills===
Water did not exist as a distinct element until the addition of the [[Splish]] family of spells in ''[[Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 3]]'', which would remain exclusive to that game until the Splish line reappeared in ''[[Dragon Quest Treasures]]''. Prior to this most water-themed skills would use the ice element for damage calculation, with a small handful using wind instead. {{Water}} has not appeared as a distinct element in any mainline {{Main Series}} game.
