Exciting Updates in Pokémon Masters EX: New Costume Sync Pairs and Events
Pokémon Masters EX, the popular mobile game developed by DeNA, is constantly evolving, introducing players to new features and events that enhance the gaming experience. The latest updates include a thrilling Double Feature Costume Scout that promises to bring excitement to trainers around the world. This event is designed for both casual players and hardcore fans, providing them with the opportunity to expand their collections and strengthen their teams.
Double Feature Costume Scout Details
Event Duration:
The Double Feature Costume Scout will be live from May 7, 2025, at 11:00 PM until May 24, 2025, at 10:59 PM (UTC). During this period, players can take advantage of unique opportunities to scout for special costume sync pairs.
Featured Costume Sync Pairs:
This event highlights two exclusive Costume Sync Pairs, each bringing their unique strengths and abilities to the game:
- 5★ Adaman (Special Costume) & Ursaluna
- 5★ Irida (Special Costume) & Zoroark
These characters are not only visually stunning in their special outfits but also offer enhanced abilities that can significantly impact gameplay.
How the Double Feature Costume Scout Works
The Double Feature Costume Scout allows players to scout for these limited-time Costume Sync Pairs using paid gems, making it a strategic choice for those looking to optimize their teams. The highlight of this scout is the daily discount, which lets players use only 100 paid gems per scout, with the option to do this up to three times each day.
Costume Tiered Scout – A Unique Opportunity
In conjunction with the Double Feature Costume Scout, Pokémon Masters EX has introduced the Costume Tiered Scout. This special scout allows players to progress through multiple tiers, offering exciting rewards at each level.
Tiered Scout Mechanics:
- Progression: Each time players scout, they advance to the next tier, with the total tiers reaching up to Tier 5.
- Rewards:
- Tier 1: Standard scouting results.
- Tier 2: Gain 5★ Power-Ups ×3.
- Tier 3: Receive a special ticket for the Ticket Scout.
- Tier 4: Gain 5★ Power-Ups ×7.
- Tier 5: Players can select a Sync Pair of their choice from the available 5★ Sync Pairs, including the featured Costume Sync Pairs.
It’s essential to note that each tier must be completed sequentially, and players cannot gain Scout Points in the Tiered Scout.
Ticket Scout Details
The tickets obtained from the Tiered Scouts can be utilized in the Ticket Scout, where players are guaranteed to receive one 5★ Sync Pair. The Costume Featured Ticket Scout, which requires a ticket from Tier 3, offers a higher chance of featuring the Costume Sync Pairs available during this event.
Ticket Scout Duration:
The Ticket Scout will be available from May 7, 2025, at 11:00 PM until May 31, 2025, at 10:59 PM (UTC).
Important Considerations for Players
As players engage with the Double Feature Costume Scout and the Costume Tiered Scout, there are several critical details they should keep in mind:
- Limited Availability: The featured Costume Sync Pairs, 5★ Adaman (Special Costume) & Ursaluna and 5★ Irida (Special Costume) & Zoroark, will only be available during the event. After the event concludes, players may have the chance to encounter these sync pairs again in future events, but there are no guarantees.
- Higher Chances: The featured sync pairs have a higher likelihood of appearing compared to non-featured 5★ sync pairs during this event.
- Reset Times: The chance to take advantage of the daily discount resets daily at 11:00 PM (UTC). Players must plan their scouting accordingly to maximize their opportunities.
Progress Tracking and Limitations
Players should be aware that once they complete all tiers in the Tiered Scout and have selected a 5★ Sync Pair, that pair will no longer be available for selection in the Sync Pair Scout. Additionally, while players can track the number of tickets earned from the Tiered Scout, this information is only accessible from the Ticket Scout screen and not from the Bag.
It’s also worth noting that the completion progress for Tiers 1–4 will reset when the event concludes, while progress for Tier 5 will reset only after a 5★ Sync Pair has been selected.
Unlock Requirements
To take full advantage of the new features and upgrades, players must meet specific requirements:
- Unlocking the Sync Grid: Complete Main Story Chapter 1: The More the Merrier (Normal) in single-player mode.
- Upgrading to 6★ EX: Complete the same chapter to unlock this upgrade.
- EX Role Unlock: Achieve the same completion milestone in the story mode.
These requirements ensure that players are adequately prepared to tackle the challenges that come with the new updates.
Conclusion
With the ongoing updates in Pokémon Masters EX, players have exciting opportunities to enhance their gameplay experiences through new costume sync pairs and innovative scouting mechanics. The introduction of the Double Feature Costume Scout and the Costume Tiered Scout not only adds variety to the game but also allows players to strategize and maximize their resources. As the Pokémon universe continues to expand, trainers everywhere can look forward to more thrilling events and features that keep the excitement alive in Pokémon Masters EX.
