How to unlock the Tactical Teamwork achievement in Persona 5 Royal - Definitive Guide
You first gain this ability after entering the Castle with your core crew (Ryuji, Ann, and Morgana) for the first time after you get the timer to change Kamoshida's heart. To be more clear, not the first time on your first day, not the second time when Ryuji unlocks his, not the third when Ann tags along and unlocks hers, the fourth time when you are freely able to enter and explore the Castle freely.
The Tutorial Baton Pass does not count, you have to do this in a battle you initiate.
*MISSABLE*
A Baton Pass is a condition that can occur in battle after an enemy is downed by hitting their weakness or a critical hit. After downing an enemy, you can press to pass the turn to a teammate. This is useful if your party members have coverage for weakness types that the active party member doesn’t have.
From the outset the protagonist has this unlocked and can be used as soon as the tutorial occurs within the Castle Palace. The tutorial itself doesn't count as the conditions for the Baton Pass are set up already, but from then onwards any other Baton Pass counts for the trophy.
When the protagonist hits an enemy's weakness, you can Baton Pass to another party member. Note that you can't do this with an enemy that is already down as the party member with the Baton Pass skill has to be the one to down the enemy.
For the other party members, you must reach rank 1 of their respective Confidants in order to unlock their Baton Pass ability. This does not affect whether they can be passed to; the protagonist can still pass to a teammate that doesn't have the Baton Pass skill, but teammates that don't have the skill can't do it themselves.
The trophy will unlock as soon as you've Baton Passed for the first time outside of the tutorial.
