Skills are special techniques used by Wonderful Ones in combat. Skills mostly come in the form of special attacks for your Unite Morphs, providing additional utility or damage compared to their normal attacks, however there are also other Skills such as upgrades to the Wonder-Liner.
While some Skills can be purchased from the Wonderful Mart in the form of Skill Manuals, the majority of Skills are unlocked by leveling up Wonderful Ones and increasing the Total Rank of each group of Unite Morph users.
Purchasing/Unlocking all Skills is the objective of the Master Technician Bottle-Cap.
Once unlocked or purchased, Skills can be freely disabled and re-enabled from the Skills list in the FILES section of the pause menu.

Skills[]
The following Skills are purchased from the Wonderful Mart.
Attack Liner[]
- DESCRIPTION
- Damage the enemy with your Wonder-Liner when drawing it.
- Wonderful Mart Availability: Game Start
- Wonderful Mart Price: 150,000 O-Parts
Attack Liner allows you to deal small amounts of damage to enemies by merely extending the Wonder-Liner into them. Attack Liner deals damage in a similar manner to idle team member attacks or Climb Attacks.
Attack Liner is notable for being used in a glitch known as the "Bomb-Liner" exploit, wherein Attack Liner's damage can be massively amplified by using it to attack enemies that are inside of a Unite Bomb's time field, making it possible to kill any enemy in seconds.
Speed Liner[]
- DESCRIPTION
- Increases the speed of the Wonder-Liner.
- Wonderful Mart Availability: Game Start
- Wonderful Mart Price: 300,000 O-Parts
Speed Liner increases the default speed of the Wonder-Liner, allowing you to draw much faster.
Formation Charge[]
- DESCRIPTION
- By holding the Team Attack button, you can charge up to three levels of Formation Charge. By releasing the button, your squad will unleash a powerful Team Attack. Depending on the level of charge, the Team Attack will cover larger distances and larger numbers of team members will be able to engage in Climb Attacks at once.
- Wonderful Mart Availability: Game Start
- Wonderful Mart Price: 500,000 O-Parts
Formation Charge gives you the ability to charge up your Team Attacks by holding the Team Attack button before releasing it, which increases both the range of the attack and number of team members that will initiate Climb Attacks. Formation Charge can be charged up to three levels, as indicated by the rings that form around the team leader: level one will initiate 2 Climb Attacks, level two will initiate 5, and level three will initiate 7.
Multi-Unites[]
- DESCRIPTION
- Team members Unite Morph and attack automatically, making a double Unite Morph attack possible.
- Wonderful Mart Availability: Game Start, purchased sequentially
- Wonderful Mart Price (Multi-Unite I): 500,000 O-Parts
- Wonderful Mart Price (Multi-Unite II): 500,000 O-Parts
- Wonderful Mart Price (Multi-Unite III): 800,000 O-Parts
- Wonderful Mart Price (Multi-Unite IV): 1,000,000 O-Parts
Multi-Unites allow you to perform additional Unite Morph attacks at the same time by drawing the shape of the desired Unite Morph and confirming it using the Team Attack Button instead of the Attack button. The resulting Multi-Unite Morph will then be formed by an available team member who'll then perform the Unite Morph's basic attacks (except for Unite Gun, which performs the Wonderful Cyclone Skill) and put away the Unite Morph once complete.
Each level of Multi-Unite allows for an additional Unite Morph to be used at the same time, making five simultaneous Unite Morph attacks possible once all are purchased.
Additionally, Multi-Unite I is automatically obtained for free when playing the game with The Prince Vorkken (DLC) installed.
Note that Multi-Unite Skill Manuals don't exist in the Wii U version of the game, as they were a balance change introduced in the Remaster. In the Wii U version it's simply possible to perform up to 4 Multi-Unites from the beginning of the game.
Unite Morph Skills[]
The first six Unite Morph weapons each have three different skills that can be unlocked by raising the Rank of each group of Unite Morph user. These three skills are Wonderful Stinger, Wonderful Rising, and Wonderful Cyclone, each having similar effects when performed by different Unite Morphs: attacking at a long range, launching enemies into the air, and attacking while covering a wide area (respectively.)
Additionally, every time a Unite Morph Skill is used and hits at least one enemy, you'll earn a unique + 50PTS. Combo bonus.
Notably, most Wonderful Risings can be used to jump higher than regular jumps, which is useful for reaching some secrets and hidden areas. Wonderful Risings share the same double jump limit as regular jumping, meaning that you can only perform up to two Wonderful Risings in the air (or one jump and one Wonderful Rising, or no Wonderful Risings if you already double jumped) before needing to land again to do more.
Unite Hand[]

- Unite Gun Rank Required to Unlock: Rank 8
By moving back and forth in the desired direction and attacking, you'll rapid fire 10 times with your Unite Gun. Additionally, by mashing the Attack button, you'll fire even faster.
Unite Gun's Wonderful Stinger Skill is one of the most powerful ways of using Unite Gun, as not only does it deal a decent amount of damage, rapid firing Wonderful Ones in this manner is also one of the easiest and fastest way of initiating Climb Attacks on enemies
- Wonderful Rising
- DESCRIPTION
- After a Unite Gun uppercut attack, fires a full-auto bullet spray. If it hits an enemy who has been stunned, it knocks them high into the sky.
- Unite Gun Rank Required to Unlock: Rank 19
By jumping and attacking at the same time, you'll twirl your Unite Gun upwards and fire one shot, which if your Unite Gun comes into contact with an enemy, is an attack capable of launching stunned enemies into the air, leaving them open to being attacked in mid air to extend their stun. Additionally, by mashing the Attack button, you'll continue to rapid fire up to 10 more times.
As Unite Gun Skills can only be performed using the Unite Morph's smallest form, Unite Gun Wonderful Rising can't be used to launch heavy enemies requiring size 50 or larger Unite Morphs to launch.
Unite Gun Wonderful Rising can't be used as a jump, as it barely gives any height at all when used.

- Performs a spinning Unite Morph to attack across a wide range.

- Allows you to throw the Unite Claw like a boomerang.

Hidden Skills[]
Although they aren't listed by the game, Unite Bomb and Unite Drill both also possess Wonderful Stinger, Wonderful Rising, and Wonderful Cyclone Skills, all of which are available by default and do not need to be unlocked before they can be used.
Unite Bomb[]
Wonderful Stinger
By moving back and forth in the desired direction and attacking, you'll throw a Unite Bomb much farther than normal.
Wonderful Rising
By jumping and attacking at the same time, you'll throw a Unite Bomb upwards and it will immediately explode overhead. Unlike any other Wonderful Rising technique, Unite Bomb Wonderful Rising cannot be used to launch enemies, and it's instead useful for more easily hitting enemies that are already in the air with Unite Bomb.
Wonderful Cyclone
By spinning at least 360° and attacking, you'll quickly throw three Unite Bombs around yourself. Only the first Unite Bomb thrown will be of your Unite Bomb's current size, and the next two will always be size 10. You'll also fail to throw extra bombs if you run out of available team members during the attack.
Unite Bomb Wonderful Cyclone is notable as being the only way to throw multiple Unite Bombs at once.
Unite Drill[]
Wonderful Stinger
By moving back and forth in the desired direction and attacking, you'll shoot forward while thrusting your Unite Drill, which is useful for quickly reaching enemies that are a short distance away.
Wonderful Rising
By jumping and attacking at the same time, you'll jump while drilling upwards, which is an attack capable of launching stunned enemies into the air (provided the Unite Drill is of a sufficient size for larger enemies,) leaving them open to being attacked in mid air to extend their stun.
Wonderful Cyclone
By spinning at least 360° and attacking, you'll spin around hitting enemies with your Unite Drill, hitting everything in a short radius around the team leader.
Trivia[]
- In addition to performing Unite Morph Skills by simply doing the correct inputs while already having a Unite Morph ready, if a Unite Morph shape is drawn by the Wonder-Liner as you perform an input, you will perform the Skill using the Unite Morph that was just drawn (provided the Skill is unlocked for the new Unite Morph). This technique, known as input buffering, allows you to instantly attack as you switch to a different Unite Morph.
- There's a glitch in the Wii U version of The Wonderful 101 that makes it possible to perform a Unite Morph skill without needing to unlock it first. To do so, start by selecting a Unite Morph that has the skill unlocked, and then input buffer the skill input as you switch to the Unite Morph that doesn't. For example if you've unlocked Stinger for Unite Hand, but not for Unite Gun, you can use Gun Stinger anyway by starting out with Hand, drawing Gun's shape, and then performing the Stinger input: This will cause you to perform Gun Stinger without having it unlocked. This glitch was fixed in the Remastered version of the game.
- This buffering technique can also allow you to use Unite Gun Skills as Wonder-Bayonetta, who otherwise cannot perform Skills using her unique Unite Guns. This works in both versions of the game (but requires the Skill to be unlocked in the Remaster.)
