HOW TO BOOST UP YOUR GUARDIAN FORCE'S POWER WHILE SUMMONING:
1. When you summon your guardian to the screen and it appears immediately press select and square repeatingly (and fast). The numbers at the far right bottom should indicate the power boost. Becareful though! If you press it while there is a little "x" over the hand it will go back to the starting number of 75! Good luck!
