Tag Characters are units where two characters battle as one, switching in for each other.

Tags and Stats, as well as health, Buff Effects, Abnormal Conditions and other effects during battle are shared by both characters.

If an ability that targets certain characters has been activated by allies or enemies during battle, it will target a Tag Character unit if one of the characters satisfies the conditions. However, the effect will only be active while the character that satisfies these conditions is being controlled.
E.g., when an ability that targets "Character: Goku" is active and a Tag Character unit containing "Character: Goku" is being targeted, the effect will not be active while a character other than "Character: Goku" is being controlled. It will only activate when "Character: Goku" is being controlled.
*Certain abilities will affect both characters.

Also, if any allies or enemies have abilities that reference how many of a certain character there are or whether certain characters are in either party, only the character that is currently active will be referenced. The character who's not active will have no effect on these abilities.
E.g., if an ally has an ability that activates if a "Tag: Saiyan" is in the party, if a Tag Character's currently active character is not "Tag: Saiyan", they will not cause the ability to activate.

If a Tag Character unit is K.O.'ed, both characters will count as defeated.
E.g., if a Tag Character unit with a "Character: Goku" and a "Character: Vegeta" is defeated, abilities that require a "Character: Goku" to be defeated and abilities that require a "Character: Vegeta" to be defeated will both activate.
*The total number of defeated characters is only counted as one.
*If both characters' Episodes overlap, they will be counted as one.

Z Abilities (or Zenkai Abilities) and Equipment conditions will apply to both characters.
E.g., if a Tag Character unit containing "Character: Goku" and "Character: Vegeta" is targeted by a Z Ability that affects "Goku" or "Vegeta", both will receive the effects.

In addition, if any party members are using Equipment that references the Character or Episode of your battle members, both characters' Characters and Episodes will be taken into account.
*If both characters' Characters or Episodes overlap, they will be counted as one.
*For effects that activate according to actions in battle, such as "when this character enters the battlefield, if there is a 'Character: Goku' battle member in the party", only the character that is currently active can cause them to activate.

Abilities that reference the number of battle members that are a certain character or have a certain Tag will only count a Tag Character unit as a single character.
E.g., if both Tag Characters are "Tag: Saiyan", they will only count as one character for abilities with effects that change according to the number of allied "Tag: Saiyan".
*Equipment abilities will also count Tag Character units as a single character.

Instead of a Main Ability, Tag Characters have a Switch Gauge.
The Switch Gauge fills up every time they use Arts and every time they are hit by an enemy's attack. Once it's completely full, you can use the Switch button.
The Switch Button is not affected by abilities that seal Main Abilities.
*The Switch Gauge will not fill up when receiving attacks that do not cause damage such as some Special Arts and Special Cover Changes.

Tap on a Tag Character's Switch button to perform a Tag Switch and change between characters. Just like the Main Ability, Tag Switch can't be used when the character is unable to take an action, such as when they have fainted or are in the middle of an enemy combo.
The Tag Switch is different from switching to a character on standby.
Therefore, it is not affected by No Switching.
However, regarding Abilities that activate "when faced with an enemy" or "when enemy switches characters while this character is on the battlefield", for example, a Tag Switch will count as a regular character switch.
E.g., if your currently active character has an Ability where their damage inflicted gets boosted every time an enemy switches characters and your enemy performs a Tag Switch, your damage inflicted will get a boost.

In the Tournament of Power, you can Tag Switch when certain conditions are met during battle.
To check these activation conditions, see the character details.

The Switch Ability activates when you switch between Tag Characters.
To find out more about its effects, check the character details.

The recommended allies feature will show characters that other players are using in the same party.
It will only show characters being used by players with a high Battle Rank in Rating Matches.
For characters that are not being used much in Rating Matches, potential allies with abilities that work well with them will be shown instead.

"Recommended Equipment" allows you to see what Equipment other players use the most, as well as what characters they equip them to.
Only Equipment used by players with a high Battle Rank will be recommended.
For characters that aren't used in Rating Matches, all of their useable Equipment is shown.

If you have a Color Changer item, you can change the designated character's battle color.

You can do this by going to said character's details page and selecting the "Change Battle Color" checkbox.

This change should then be reflected in battle.
