Persona 5 Requests and Mementos
Requests in Persona 5 are acquired from the Phansite and sent by Mishima. Persona 5 Requests basically require you to head into Mementos in order to eliminate weak Shadows.
In addition to this, there are some requests which are acquired through Confidants. Mementos in Persona 5 are made up of eight different areas and each one of these areas unlocks after beating a Palace.

Requests
A strange thing about the requests is that the shadows you face in these campaigns are not like regular shadows.
They tend to deviate from their origins and do not have the same weaknesses as you would expect them to have otherwise.
For instance, you will come across a shadow that looks like the Jack Frost. Naturally, you would expect it to be resistant to Ice and weak against Fire but that would not be the case in requests section of the game.

Mishima’s Confidant Requests
In-game, you will come to realize that most of the requests that you receive are given to you by Mishima. However, there are some requests that you only can receive by raising his Moon Confidant Rank.
Moon is Mishima’s confidant and the fifth confidant that you unlock after beating the first palace.
Alongside showering you with requests, when ranked up, Moon will also provide you with a range of passive abilities that will help them.
Some of the requests are only unlocked at specific ranks of the confidant. These are listed below,
- One Who Bullies Bullies; This request is unlocked when the confidant is ranked up to level 3. Additionally, you also have to complete a preceding request namely The Bark and Bite of a Bully.
- Part-time Job Full-time Hell; This request is unlocked only at level 4 of the confidant.
- Calling for Justice for Cats; For this one, you will have to work on the Convenience Store three times. Twice before 8/11 and once after that. Along with that, you have to rank up the confidant to rank 5.
- Man of Many Faces and Debts; This request is unlocked at rank 8 of the confidant.
Also, remember that Mishima can only be found in the night-time in three different places namely, Shibuya, Shinjuku, and Akihabara. Other than that, he would not be seen in the rain.
Also, his availability also depends on the completion of his last requests. He sends them in my message, so be sure to check the messages once in a while and mark the enemy to complete his request in order to gain more.
Note that if you have not ranked up Mishima’s Confidant by the mid of Nov, you will have to finish the seventh palace in order to be able to rank up again.
The following are some tips and tricks that would be helpful while tackling the shadows in these requests,
- It is advisable to approach the shadows in the rain. This increases the difficulty up by a notch but also increases the odds of having loot drops and treasure chests. This also gives a lot more money and XP and makes treasure demons a much more common.
- We also suggest that you leave quickly after completing your request. This is advisable because it saves you a lot of resources. Also, if you go deeper and explore more, you will find that the Safe Rooms are far from each other and you might catch loads of trouble between any of these.
