This Evil Soldier Family page is about the Nintendo DS release. For the Super Famicom release, see Shiren 1 SFC:Evil Soldier Family.

For the lore page, see Shiren:Evil Soldier Family.

The Evil Soldier (Japanese: 鬼面武者, Kimen Musha Kei) Monster Family in  Mystery Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer consists of:

1. Evil Soldier (Japanese: 鬼面武者, Kimen Musha)
2. Evil Veteran (Japanese: はんにゃ武者, Hannya Musha)
3. Evil General (Japanese: 将軍, Shōgun)
4. Evil Shogun (Japanese: 大将軍, Daishōgun)

Evil Soldiers take the appearance of samurai (Japanese: 侍) equipped with traditional armor including a helmet, kabuto (Japanese: 冑) with white side padding, fukigaeshi (Japanese: 吹返), shoulder spaulders, sode (Japanese: 袖). On its torso it wears a plated cuirass, do (Japanese: 胴) which connects to thigh plates, haidate (Japanese: 佩楯), with plain rounded boots.

When attacking Evil Soldiers step forward with their right foot, grab the sword they normally wield in their right, with both hands, and strike the target.

Monster Ability

When defeated, Evil Soldiers will resurrect in the form of a Dead Soldier Family of the corresponding level. This occurs after 3 turns and in the unobstructed spot where the Evil Soldier was defeated.

Effect when Sealed

When defeated, Evil Soldiers will come back as a Dead Soldier.

Combat Strategy

Evil Soldiers are generally not a physical threat to the player, with no special abilities and no significantly high attack or defense values, and are similar to Soldier Ant Family in this aspect, as they are not specialized for physical combat.

However, when defeated, an Evil Soldier will spawn a Dead Soldier Family in its place after 3 turns have passed. This monster is more dangerous than the Evil Soldier as it will approach any other Monster and increase its level by 1, which can significantly increase that monster's lethality.

Meat Strategy

As an Evil Soldier, Shiren can be resurrected once after being defeated and come back as a Dead Soldier Family Monster of respective level. This is similar in function to a valuable Herb of Revival, which may explain why Monster Meat of Evil Soldiers and Dead Soldiers are expensive.

As items cannot be used as a monster, it's reasonable to use this when the power of the player's Weapon and Shield are strong enough to defeat enemies. This is because Fusion on equipment do not apply while Shiren is transformed as a monster. Monsters with abilities that have other effects than dealing damage may require items to be used, and may not be good targets for this meat.

Caution

If Shiren is defeated as a Sealed Evil Soldier Family Monster, they will not resurrect as a Dead Soldier and will need to return to Canyon Hamlet or be Rescued.
