Appearances

 * Persona 2: Innocent Sin: Boss

Profile
Shadow Tatsuya first appeared alongside Shadow Eikichi and Shadow Lisa at Caracol before the battle against Angel Joker.

After the three Shadows escaped, four shrines appeared along the city: Leo Shrine, Aquarius Shrine, Taurus Shrine and Scorpio Shrine. Shadow Tatsuya was at the end of the Leo Shrine protecting the crystal skull of said shrine. When Tatsuya and the others arrive to where Shadow Tatsuya is, the latter taunts Tatsuya by saying that he knows his dreams (said dreams depends on what the player chooses at the beginning of the game). He tries to trick Tatsuya on admiting that he hates Jun for what he did when he was Joker, depending on the player's choice the Shadow will make another remark about that Tatsuya must hate Jun, all the trouble he caused to the city and the pain he brought to his friends and him. Whatever the player chooses, the scene will lead to a boss fight against Shadow Tatsuya.

After the battle ends Shadow Tatsuya says that he is impressed on how strong Tatsuya is but it was obvious since they are the same but he tells him that no it doesn't matter if he is defeated he must not forget that he is his Shadow and that he will always be around.

Strategy
It is recommended that the party is at least at level 50 or higher. Like Tatsuya, Shadow Tatsuya will not be hurt if he is hit by a fire spell, instead he must be hit by other kinds of spell like ice, water or physical spells like Apollo's Gigantic Fist. The player must use Apollo in this fight if he or she wants Apollo to be immune against Dark based spells. Make Maya be the main healer and make Tatsuya and Eikichi attack with physical attacks, use Lisa to attack as well but also as a healer if Maya is unavailable, the same goes for Jun. Fusion spells like Grand Cross (if the player obtained Chronos before entering this dungeon) will be a great help to defeat Shadow Tatsuya.
