In the Dragon Quest III remakes, genius is a personality that improves agility and wisdom growth, but reduces resilience and luck growth.

Other party members have a chance to be a genius when talent scouted at Patty's Party Planning Place, except warriors or martial artists, depending on their stat bonuses.
