In the latest 2 episodes, Phoenix shows two massive feats in the courtroom.

Soul Manipulation.

Unlike the games, after Phoenix orders Dahlia to get out of Maya's body, it is done. It must have been the objection/pointing since Mia isn't doing anything nor ordering her to leave, and Maya herself cannot push spirits out of herself as shown in the same case.

Light Manipulation.

He flat out flashes everyone in the room with a explotion of light.

So yeah, both can indeed be useful in most battles.
