There are 40 spells for each category; 20 White and 20 Black. Anyone can learn any spell and is not based on class. When the player teaches a character a new spell it starts at level 1 and rises in level the more it is used in battle. The max level a spell can be raised to is level 16.

A trick to raise spells quickly is to get in battle with a weak enemy and cast the spells one wants to raise 100 times, as doing this will ensure the spell will rise a level. There is also a [[target-cancel bug]] in some versions that lets the player level up their spells by repeatedly selecting and cancelling the Magic command.

In iOS version, the "Magic Command" can cast a spell on a single target or on an entire group. When choosing who to cast the spell on the player must double-tap a target to select them. To select the entire group (of enemies or player party) the player must feather swipe from the bottom right to the top left of the group. This means a quick motion that starts and ends with the finger in the air.
