Pokémon Masters EX progression

Leveling Up

Use level-up manuals to increase a sync pair's experience.

Unlocking Sync Pair Level Caps

Raise a sync pair's level cap with specific items.

Power-Ups & Increasing ★s

Power-Up: Use this item on a sync pair to raise their stats. You can find it in the Team menu under Increase Potential.

The number of times power-ups can be used depends on the sync pair's number of ★s. Using the most power-ups possible for a sync pair increases its number of ★s. Once the sync pair's number of ★s reaches its maximum level, it will no longer increase.

Some power-ups have an expiration date and will disappear if you do not use them in time.

Leveling Up Sync Moves

When you acquire a duplicate sync pair, the level of its sync move increases. Sync moves have a maximum level of 5, and their damage increases with each rise in level.

Learning Moves/Skills

From Moves & Skills on the Team menu, your sync pair can learn new moves or passive skills with certain items.

Upgrading Gear

You can upgrade gear by using certain items. Upgrading gear boosts its effects.

Unlocking Gear Level Caps

Gear can only be upgraded to a certain level. However, you can go over this cap by exchanging duplicate gear.

Pokémon Evolution

Some sync pairs acquire Pokémon Evolution area info once they reach a certain level. By exploring these areas, you can evolve your sync pair's Pokémon, increasing the sync pair's stats. Once a Pokémon evolves, it cannot return to its previous form. Evolution materials are required to take on Evolution areas. You can exchange items for Evolution materials in the shop.

Increasing the Move Gauge

The move gauge is required to perform moves in battle. You can expand it by advancing through the main story and trading in coins at the shop.

Trainers at the Pokémon Center

At the Pokémon Center, you can get items by speaking to Trainers.

Additionally, you can select certain sync pairs you'd like to see visit the Pokémon Center more often. In the Edit Team menu, select a sync pair, then tap the + icon on the left to view their detail screen. Tap the heart icon at the top left of this screen to allow that sync pair to appear more frequently.

Note: This option is not available when viewing sync pair details in the Dex.

Missions

In Missions, you can earn various rewards for fulfilling certain conditions. To see what missions you can take on, go to Missions under the Poryphone menu.

You can get a special reward for completing all of the missions within the same group.

Some missions and the rewards earned for completing them are only available for a limited period of time.

Present Box

Log-in bonuses or items that exceed your inventory limit are sent here. Some items can only be claimed for a certain period of time.

Friends

When a player becomes your friend, you can invite them to the same matching lobby in co-op battles.

To make someone a friend, you must send a friend request to either a player you met in a co-op battle or a player whose ID you know, and then have them accept.

Sync Pair Scout

Use sync pair scout to befriend a random sync pair.

If you get a sync pair you already have, its sync move level will increase by 1. If the sync pair's sync move level is already at 5, you will receive a power-up with the same ★ level as the sync pair obtained.

Scout Points

Using sync pair scout earns you scout points. You earn scout points each time you use sync pair scout. When you reach the maximum amount, you can choose any sync pair available to befriend during that sync pair scout period.

Once the sync pair scout period is over, the scout points collected during that time will be deleted.

Exchanging Gear

You can earn coins by exchanging extra gear. Once exchanged, gear cannot be returned to you.

Exchange Items

Exchange items and coins for other items. The quantity and type of items that can be exchanged may vary depending on the time period.

Coins

Exchange gear to earn coins, or earn them as rewards for exploring. They can be exchanged for items or used to upgrade gear.
