Get An Extra Crank Per Day

Summoning and talking to the High Gnomey gives the player an additional crank per day. You can do this once every day!

Gnomey is obtained by competing the Baffle Board with High Gnomey as its solution in Eddie's house in Breezy Hills. It evolves into High Gnomey at level 28.

Mechanics

1. Soft resets do not change what you will get from a coin, no matter the color or type of coin.
2. Both Cranks have “draw pools” that are determined in the beginning of the save file per colored coins, the coins themselves do not reflect what you will get. For example when you get an Orange coin it stacks with your other Orange coins and is used to access the orange draw pool for either Crank.
3. You can’t skip prizes. When you spend a coin on one Crank A Kai, it takes the next item from the color draw pool you are accessing for that Crank A Kai and only that Kai. For example if the next red coin you spend gets you an Iron Doll in the present, if you reset and decide to spend the coin instead on the other Crank A Kai in the past, you will still get an Iron doll the next time you spend a red coin on that first Crank A Kai in the present. So eventually if you want that certain crank reward, I.E. Goldenyan from an Orange coin in the present, you have to burn through all of them to get it from that draw pool.
4. Prizes don’t change day to day, Design coins, Excitement Coins, Glitzy Coins, and Cheerful Coins, among other event only coins, always give the same things from both Crank A Kai.
5. You can get 3-30 cranks a day determined at 6 am every day. these are visible on the bottom right of the Yo-kai Tablet Screen and get used up no matter what Crank A Kai you spend them on.
6. You can get an extra crank from High Gnomey from a baffleboard in Breezy Hills every day. So put Gnomey in your party as soon as you get him, and save like 4 Mega Exporbs to get it done right away.
7. There is no current way to get more than your allotted cranks for the day by cheating the system.
8. The original Yo-kai Watch toy medal QR codes also work to get coins in Yo-kai Watch 2.

Players can insert coins into Crank-a-kai machine to receive various random reward. Aside from special coins, The color of coin, represents a tribe, determines the possible Yo-kai reward. The machine at the root of the giant tree past the Mt. Wildwood Shrine. Players can use the Crank 3 times per day (in-game time) from Chapter 2 and onward.

Obtainable Yo-kai

Mechanics

The Crank-a-kai is a prison which holds Yo-kai within it, and the player can free them with Crank-a-kai Coins.

In the game, the Player can revisit the Crank-a-kai (up to three times per day in the first game) and operate it with special coins, which come in one color for each Yo-kai tribe, as well as other, more elusive coin types, as well as 10 of the Nintendo 3DS' Play Coins. The Player can get a variety of items and Yo-kai from the Crank-a-kai. The freed Yo-kai are generally amicable and happy once freed, automatically giving over their Yo-kai Medals in return for freeing them.

The capsules the Crank-a-kai give out vary in color, which can be served as a hint to players as to what is sealed inside

• Grayish-white: These capsules always provide Items, most of which are common.
• Violet: Violet capsules vary between common Yo-kai and uncommon to rare Items.
• Red: Red capsules vary between uncommon Yo-kai and rare Items.
• Gold: Solid gold capsules always give out Rare Yo-kai. Rare is it that these capsules can give the Rank S Rare Yo-kai, though that can only happen when using tribe-specific Coins.
• Black: Black-hued capsules always give out the Rank S Crank-a-kai-exclusive Rare Yo-kai needed to unseal Gilgaros.

It must be stressed out that what the player will get from the Crank-a-kai via Coins is predetermined when that Coin is obtained, and thus, one cannot just simply reset and try again if they find their results lacking, though one can still mess with the 3DS' Date settings to gain additional draws.

Crank-a-kai Coins are found by opening boxes, randomly searching certain spots in the overworld, completing requests, and through special QR Codes or Passwords. The Yo-kai Medal toys have a QR code on the back, which offer a tribe-specific coin when scanned by using the Piggleston Bank in-game.
