Call Team costs 10 {{MP}} to use, and will summon one of the {{party 8}}'s monster teams even if only one monster is present. Monsters that are not already vanquished will enter battle in peak condition, though if they fall, only M[[orrie]] can revive them.


The selected team will stay in battle for a minimum of three turns. Each monster has a hidden stat that affects the number of turns they can stay in battle, and the total is always rounded up. For example, if the sum of a three-monster team's staying power is 3.2, they will stay in battle for four turns.
