The level cap for sync pairs has also been increased.
The latest update for Pokemon Masters EX adds a new sync pair to the game and also lets players power-up their existing sync pairs to higher levels.
With this update, players can collect the sync pair of Raihan & Duraludon through the sync pair spotlight scout (the game’s mystery box feature). This spotlight scout will be available from now until May 30 at 10:59 p.m. PT.
In addition, players can now take part in a new Eternal Rivals time trial event, which features trainers from the Galar region of the Pokemon universe who are on a quest to beat Leon’s record. This event will challenge players to win time trial battles as quickly as possible to earn points. The faster they win one of these battles, the more points they’ll earn. Players can redeem points for rewards like 5Star Guaranteed Scout Tickets and 5Star Power-Ups.
The Eternal Rivals time trial event will be available from now until May 15 at 10:59 p.m. PT. Players will need to have completed at least Chapter 1 of the game’s main story to take part in this event.
This update also increases the possible level cap for all sync pairs to 135. Players can complete activities in a new Training Area to gather the materials required to upgrade each of their sync pairs to this new level cap.
To celebrate the launch of this update, players can receive 3,000 free Gems (the game’s premium currency) by logging into Pokemon Masters EX between now and May 13 at 10:59 p.m. PT. Players can earn an additional 1,500 free Gems by logging into the game each day between now and May 12 at 10:59 p.m. PT.
Finally, beginning on April 30 at 10 a.m. PT, players will be able to enter to win a Raihan-themed phone accessory (similar to a PopSocket) on the Pokemon Masters EX Twitter page.
