Basically, a Party Swap system that you can use in battles similar to that in Nocturne. Can't find any vids though...
Other Scripts I am using (in order):
Demonic Compendium (Pokedex in which you can summon a registered demon for a cost)
Stat Distribution

Demon Recruiting:
Excerpt from Gamespot:
When you enter one of the game's many random encounters, you have a standard suite of battle options: a melee attack, some magic attacks, and some special abilities. You also have a "talk" option, which lets you attempt to start a conversation with, and hopefully recruit, one of your monstrous foes. It's not just a matter of asking, however, as demons tend to be a greedy lot. Many times they will ask you for money, or certain items, or even some of your health before they will agree to join. Some will turn up their nose at you altogether if you're not high enough in level, some don't understand what you're trying to say, and if Kagutsuchi is full, they won't pay any attention to you at all, as they'll be driven to distraction by the moon's energies. Even if you get a conversation going, there's no guarantee the demon will join up with you. Some will milk you for currency and items and then decide they'd rather not go, and others will just give you a choice piece of information or a nice item for your trouble. Occasionally, rather than make material demands, your would-be companion will ask you a philosophical question about power or happiness that you must answer correctly.
Gods and demons are your friends. Tempt them to your side with money, gifts, and your dazzling intellect.
It sounds complicated, but the various outcomes balance well, and cajoling the demons you encounter and trying to sweet-talk them into joining your entourage becomes a compelling pastime and not just a required one. It's not all one-sided either, because every so often a demon will approach you to ask if you might have a spare item, or just to have a chat. Sometimes weakened enemies will beg for their lives, offering you items, money, or even their servitude in exchange for ensuring their safety. While the number of demons you can have as part of your retinue (counting the three you can bring into battle with you) is capped, you can help make the most out of your newfound friends and free up some space by using the game's fusion system.

Demon Fusion:
From Gamespot and Aeria:
Demon fusion can happen only at special shrines located throughout the world, and it's simply a matter of taking two of your party members and combining them to create a new monster. If you do this effectively, you'll often get a more-powerful demon of a higher level, and the fusion screen actually shows you what monster and level you'll get before you combine, so there's almost no guesswork to it. (Fusions can go awry, but it's not common.) You can use this technique to create some powerhouse creatures that you might not have seen in the field, and what's more, fusion monsters also get some of the original abilities of their "parents," so you can whip up creatures with some custom abilities. It's a fast and fun way to quickly upgrade the abilities of your party, and you'll need the assistance, because the battles in Nocturne can be tough.
You can fuse 2 demons together, 3 demons, four or more the demons of a specific type to create a true monster, etc.
When fusing demons together, there is a small fee which must be paid, and depending on the demon there is a percentage chance that the fusion may fail. However, if you fail a fusion, the only thing you lose is your original fee. Apart from demons, you can also fuse spirits. These spirits, although weak in battle, can be fused with other demons to either upgrade or downgrade their demon species rank. The fusion screen consists of a chart which lists all your fusible demons, and small symbols showing whether they can be fused into a demon (circle symbol), a spirit (dotted cross symbol) or a fusion is not available (dash symbol). Certain demons cannot be fused together and you cannot fuse 2 of the same demon.
Note that fusing a demon which does not trust you will lower its trust of you even further. The more a demon dislikes or distrusts you, the worse its stats are reduced.
