During the match, there will be a timeout during
every other court change. There you have a
choice of conversation with your partner.
Reflecting on your partner’s performance, use
the Control Stick

to select the type of conver-
sation (Praise, Encourage, Reprimand, or Do
nothing), and press the A Button to enter.
Depending on your selection, the Teamwork per-
centage will increase or decrease. If the
Teamwork percentage is high, your partner can
perform her maximum. But if it is low, she will per-
form more erratic.
As a team, there are times when it is necessary
to reprimand. Choose your actions wisely.

The player that receives becomes the attacker.
If you want to have your partner attack, then
distribute the Ability Points to improve her
receiving also.
On the other hand, if you want to attack, receive
the ball yourself. Your partner will then need to
improve on tossing.
Your partner can improve on serving, receiving,
tossing, attacking, or blocking in combination
with either power or response. Even if she has
higher skill to serve or to attack, she can’t hit a
powerful ball. Likewise, even with technique to
receive or to toss, it’s no use if she can’t reach
the ball. Furthermore, she will not be a powerful
partner, if you raise only her power or response.
Think balance.
To be successful on selecting either Praise or
Reprimand, think about these three points: the
current point differential, the contents of your
performance, and the contents of your partner’s
performance. Even if your team is leading in the
match, what if you’re making all the mistakes and
your partner is performing well... Praise, reprimand,
or do nothing... Think well before you select.
