Damage-Boosting Items
In Touhou Puppet Dance Performance and its expansion Shard of Dreams, there are certain hold items that will boost the damage done by a Puppet depending on the type of attack. These types of items are called Damage-Boosting Items, and they come in a few varieties on how they increase damage. The first being Category Increasing, which focus on increasing the damage of a specific category (Focus or Spread) of Skills by either 1.5x damage in exchange for being locked into the first move you use, or 1.1x damage with no move restrictions, and are found in the Hold Item 2 category of the bag.
Note: Damage increaseing items have no effect on fixed damage moves like Charon Ferries
Category Increasing
"Category increasing" are a set of hold items that will boost the power of associated Category of Skills by a certain amount. Choice items will increase their designated Categories damage by 1.5x, but will be locked into using the first skill that they use. If it is given to an opponent through a skill like Shark Trade, or stolen with an ability like Collectomaniac, the next skill they use will be the one that gets locked (it does not function the same way as Encourage, in the sense that it does not lock them into the last skill they used before receiving the item). The colored version of these items only boost their designated categories damage by 1.1x, but do not lock you into the first move you use
