"Help" description
Swordplay (剣技, Kengi?) is a command ability of the Warrior dressphere in Final Fantasy X-2. Swordplay can be accessed outside of the Warrior dressphere by equipping the Sword Lore accessory or the Pride of the Sword Garment Grid. Yuna has access to the Swordplay abilities she has learned through the Mascot dressphere. Swordplay abilities are named after recurring swords from the series.
For captured creatures, they will only be able to use Swordplay abilities that they have access to if they have a normal attack available.
