Pokémon Masters Day is here again, with the usual collection of regular events and presents on offer in Pokémon Masters EX for the monthly celebrations. All players who log in today will receive a special present of 500 gems from Pikachu, and have the opportunity to take advantage of special events and co-op battles. As always, several Sync Pairs are also receiving upgrades to their Sync Grids alongside this monthly event.
Pokémon Masters Day first ran back in November 2021, and currently runs every month in Pokémon Masters EX from the 24th at 11:00 pm (PDT), through to the 25th at 10:59 pm (PDT).
To claim presents, players must have completed Main Story Chapter 1: The More the Merrier (Normal) in single-player.
Sync Pair Upgrades
To celebrate this Masters Day update, two sync pairs will be getting upgrades. First off, 5★ Burgh & Leavanny are receiving new sync grid titles, which are unlocked when their move level is increased to 2 or 3. 3★ Marley & Arcanine can be now raised all the way up to 6★ EX, with Marley receiving a new EX Style in White with Red accessories and trim.
One-time-only Scouts for Pokémon Masters Day
Two special discounted Pokemon Masters Day scouts are available, representing a great chance to obtain some extra sync pairs. These scouts can each only be used once and must be done before the end of Pokémon Masters Day.
The Pokémon Masters Day One-time-only 5★-Guaranteed Scout x11 is available for 100 paid gems, granting the player a regular x11 scout along with a bonus 5★-Guaranteed Sync Pair, while the Pokémon Masters Day One-Time-Only Happy Scout ×11 is available for only 25 gems, functioning as a standard x11 scout with no special bonuses to sync pair availability.
Pika-Presents and Challenges
By completing the Pika-Presents for Everyone! event battle, players can get Gems, 5★ Power-Ups, Strike Move Candy Coins, 5★-Guaranteed Scout Tickets, and other amazing rewards. Players can also take on the co-op battle Special Pika-Challenge to collect Pikachu Stickers to exchange for great rewards in the exchange menu.
