To get these abilities, you must unlock the Vampire job first. Refer to these links for more details.
Vampire Castle Part 1
Vampire Castle Part 2
There are 25 Genome abilities that you can learn. A character with the Vampire Job or has equipped the Genome Drain support ability will learn certain abilities after getting hit by an enemy that uses it. After learning by anyone in your team, anybody who switches to the Vampire job will have access to the learned ability.
Take note that for some genome abilities that inflict status ailments, getting hit by them doesn't automatically allow your character to learn it. You have to either resist it or evade it to learn it. A couple of good examples are Venom, Wing Scales and Paralyzing Pollen. So if Venom hits your character and he/she gets poisoned, you won't get the ability. That character should resist the attack to learn it.
There are also four Genome abilities you can learn but are not listed in the journal. These can be learned from the Nemeses sent via Streetpass or by updating your game data online.
- Firaja - Learned from Belphegor
- Thundaja - Learned from Asmodeus or Belphegor.
- Blizzaja - Learned from Mammon or Belphegor.
- Aeroja - Learned from Lucifer

voltora appears not in my game at chapter 5 D:
Lullaby can be learned in chapter 4 very easily from all tree enemies
So if you've passed a chapter that a creature yielding one of these moves was in, you can never acquire that move?
ժҽʍղեíօղտ հɑտթ íտ ϲհɑթեҽɾ 8
I would love it if this was put in order of place to get, but really thanks!
I can confirm-Sand Worm is in Dimension's Hasp-B2, not B5.
there one more bone crush learned from lord derosso cost is 2bp
Don't forget the secret abilities! These aren't listed in the journal, they all cost 99 MP, and are all learned from nemeses:
Firaja
Spell that does tremendous fire damage to all enemies.
Learned From: Belphegor
Location: Norende Village Restoration
Thundaja
Spell that does tremendous lightning damage to all enemies.
Learned from: Asmodeus or Belphegor
Location: Norende Village Restoration
Blizaja
Spell that does tremendous ice damage to all enemies.
Learned from: Mammon or Belphegor
Location: Norende Village Restoration
Aeroja
Spell that does tremendous wind damage to all enemies.
Learned from: Lucifer
Location: Norende Village Restoration
All of these bosses have a level requirement between 70 and 99, so good luck!
(Of course, since Belphegor can use 3 of those, I'd fight that one first, it should make it a little easier.)
Sand worm is prob on Hasp b2
