How to unlock the The Power of Two achievement in Dead or Alive 5 - Definitive Guide

For this achievement you need to perform 50 different, character-specific tag throws. This are special throws which can only be performed in Tag Battle Mode. While everyone can be partners to anyone, certain characters with different relationships have special moves which can be performed together by tagging in the match; these types of tag team moves generally do a great amount of damage.

Here is a list of characters with relationships:

Ayane - Bass Armstrong, Gen Fu, Jann Lee, Kasumi, Ryu Hayabusa Hayate, Kokoro

Bass Armstrong - Ayane, Bayman, Gen Fu, Jann Lee, Kasumi, Ryu Hayabusa, Tina Armstrong, Zack, La Mariposa, Mila, Rig

Bayman - Bass Armstrong, Gen Fu, Jann Lee, Ryu Hayabusa, Tina Armstrong, Zack, Christie

Brad Wong - Christie, Gen Fu, Hayate, Kasumi, Eliot, Kokoro, Zack

Christie - Brad Wong, Hayate, Helena Douglas, Bayman

Eliot - Brad Wong, Hayate, Helena Douglas

Gen Fu - Ayane, Bass Armstrong, Bayman, Helena Douglas, Jann Lee, Kasumi, Leifang, Ryu Hayabusa, Tina Armstrong, Zack, Brad Wong, Eliot

Hayate - Ayane, Brad Wong, Christie, Ryu Hayabusa

Helena Douglas - Gen Fu, Kasumi, Leifang, Ryu Hayabusa, Christie

Jann Lee - Ayane, Bass Armstrong, Bayman, Gen Fu, Leifang, Ryu Hayabusa

Kasumi - Ayane, Bass Armstrong, Ein, Gen Fu, Helena Douglas, Ryu Hayabusa, Tina Armstrong, Brad Wong, Zack

Kokoro - Ayane, Brad Wong, Eliot, Hayate

Leifang - Gen Fu, Helena Douglas, Jann Lee, Tina Armstrong, Zack, Eliot

Mila - Bass Armstrong, Tina Armstrong

Rig - Bass Armstrong

Ryu Hayabusa - Ayane, Bass Armstrong, Bayman, Gen Fu, Helena Douglas, Jann Lee, Kasumi, Tina Armstrong, Zack, Hayate

Tina Amstrong - Bass Armstrong, Bayman, Gen Fu, Kasumi, Leifang, Ryu Hayabusa, Zack, La Mariposa, Mila

Looks like you forgot Hitomi and Lisa on the list. Also do the Virtua Fighters (Sarah, Akira, and Pai) have any relationships? Or Alpha? Thanks for the list though!

To do a tag throw, it's simply by pressing A on the button, right?

i followed this list and i did them in order, but i also when i did, for example, Ayane and Bass.
i pressed A with Ayane to tagswitch to Bass, and pressed A after that to switch back from Bass to Ayane..
so 2 tags in 1 match, do this with everyone you play in the list order ( i skipped Gen-Fu couples as i dont have him unlocked yet) and the achievement will pop halfway Helena's couple list

hope this helps a bit when tackling this list of couple tag switches :)

This isn't all the tag throws but it doesn't matter, plenty for the achievement.

For Kasumi, I think you mean Hayate instead of Ein, especially since Ein isn't even in this game (yet). Also, I think Helena and Kokoro have a special throw, since they both use more of less the same style.

Other than that, thanks for the list, dude.

Small point. Some characters have more than one each way. Tina and Bass and two different specific tags each, so you could get 4 in one round.

This may or may not be helpful but I received this achievement when I was playing tag team arcade mode and the computer did a character-specific throw. The computer was Bass and Zack, and when they threw me the achievement popped during the throw. I was Tina and Akira and to my knowledge they do not have a relationship so even if you see these throws from the computer, it still may count.

Maybe you should add that you can do this in Versus with a 2nd controller.

The list helps a lot. That is why I give a thumbs up.

Btw: If you want to knock out easy tag-throws first:
Just pick a character in the character roaster, and then pick the character below the one you selected as your partner. There has to be a character below. F.e. Christie and Sarah Bryant will not work.
The rest will always do partner-specific throws.

F.e. Kasumi-Ryu, Mila-Tina, Eliot-Brad Wong, Rig-Bass.

And if you have unlocked all Virtua Fighter character, these have specific throws aswell.
Sarah - Akira
Akira - Pai
Pai - Sarah

For this trophy you must perform 50 different character-specific tag throws, with the cast characters will perform special attacks when paired up with certain other characters when you press in Tag Matches with them, there is a specific throw going from one character to the other sometimes not vice versa. Most pairs have character specific tag throws with each other so it is possible that you can get this within 25 teams.

This can be done easily in versus with another controller and even if you lack another controller playing against an A.I with the lowest difficulty settings should be enough as well. Below is a list of all the characters and the characters they have character specific tag throws with:

  • Akira Yuki: Kokoro, Pai, Sarah
  • Alpha-152: None
  • Ayane:Jann Lee, Hayate, Kasumi, Hayabusa
  • Bass Armstrong: Ayane, Bayman, Gen Fu, Jann Lee, Kasumi, Lisa , Mila, Rig, Tina Armstrong, Zack
  • Bayman: Bass, Christie, Gen Fu, Tina Armstrong, Zack
  • Brad Wong: Eliot, Kokoro, Zack
  • Christie: Bayman, Gen Fu, Helena, Hitomi
  • Eliot: Brad Wong, Gen Fu, Leifang
  • Gen Fu: Ayane, Bass, Bayman, Brad Wong, Eliot, Helena, Kasumi, Leifang, Tine, Hayabusa, Zack
  • Hayate: Hayate, Brad Wong, Christie, Hayabusa
  • Helena Douglas: Christie, Kasumi, Kokoro, Leifang, Hayabusa
  • Hitomi: Hayate, Kokoro, Leifang, Zack
  • Jann Lee: Bayman, Gen Fu, Leifang, Rig, Hayabusa
  • Kasumi: Ayane, Helena, Hayabusa, Zack
  • Kokoro: Akira, Ayane, Eliot, Hayate, Helena, Hitomi, Lisa
  • La Mariposa/ Lisa Hamilton: Bass, Hitomi, Tina
  • Leifang: Helena, Jann Lee, Pai, Tina
