A Spirit Potion is a Healing Item used to restore 100 SP. It is the only recovery item that cannot be used outside battle. The reason behind this is that the SP you get from Spirit Potion can increase your Dragoon Level. Since it is impossible to get a "LEVEL UP" message outside a battle results screen, and perhaps to curtail spamming of Spirit Potions to level up Dragoon was programmed as a battle item. This effectively turns it into something close to a transfer of SP from other characters, although their damage would be bringing the enemy closer to death and thus ending the combat and requiring a new enemy to be acquired with a few exceptions. And of course it is expensive, although being used in combat takes extra time, so it can instead be seen as taking extra time away from acquiring money.
Spirit Potions can, effectively, be bought at the Arena in Lohan by buying 20 tickets for 200G and trading the tickets for the Potion. Rougly speaking, 2 G per SP. This can even speed up increasing Dragoon levels. However, all characters would require 200 Spirit Potions to max out their Dragoon levels from level 1; costing 40,000G at the Arena.

Of all the monsters or bosses, only the Mermaid onboard the Queen Fury and in the Undersea Cavern, and the unique and hard to kill 00PARTS enemies, drop Spirit Potion. Should players perfect the technique of dispatching the 00PARTS, they are the most reliable source, dropping at 100% chance.
