SMT was the first franchise to use the "Mon" genre, like a decade or 2 before Pokemon.

As for the fusions, it's like this:

1-Each Demon belongs to a race.

2-Fusing 2 Demons of different races, produces a Demon of a different race than these 2.

3-The resulting Demon is determined by the combined levels of the 2 used Demons, divided by 2. Each Demon is of a specific level, and if the result of that small equation is higher than a Demon's from the obtained race, then one will instead obtain (or be able to obtain) the Demon of the next "Rank" in that Race whose level is the closest to the obtained result from the equation.

Let's say you fuse 2 Demons of races X and Y, and their lvs are 12 and 36, total is 48, divided by 2 you get 24. Fusing Demons of those 2 races would give you one of race Z. It's Lv is 21, however, so you won't be able to get it by fusing these 2 Demons. However, you will be able to obtain the next Demon of race Z, which is Lv38, assuming you are of the same/higher level.

4-Fusing 2 Demons of the same race gives you an element. They can be fused with other Demons to obtain the Demon of the next Rank in the race of the non-element. Say, Wilder+Element gives you the next Wilder Demon, the one whose Lv is higher, and the closest to the level of the Wilder you used. It was LV21 and the next is Lv35, you get the Lv35 Wilder. Also, Elements suck in combat.

5-Fusing 2 Elements gives you a mitama. They can be used to pass a skill to a Demon, and increase one of it's stats based on the mitama. The result Demon will be the exact same as the non-Mitama Demon, it will even keep it's Exp and LV. They suck even more in combat.

6-Not all Elements are compatible with all Races. Some Elements also reduce a Demon to the previous Rank in their race, some can't be used in some races, some races can't be fused with any Element.

7-You must be the same Lv as the resultant Demon to get it through Fusion (and through Negotiation, otherwise they won't bother hearing you). If you are not, you won't be able to perform the fusion.

8-Some Demons can only be obtained through Fusion, and some have to be unlocked beforehand.

9-Accidents may happen. You get a different Demon with random heridated skills and of a different Lv and Race, though usually it's Lv is not too far from the intended result's. It can even be higher leveled than the result.

And all that's why you got an archangel from fusing a Foul and what I believe is a Fallen.
