Pokémon Masters EX, the strategy and battling Pokémon game for mobile platforms, is now available for download on the App Store (iOS) and Google Play (Android). In celebration of the game’s popularity, special in-game events and rewards are being offered for all players to take part in on a regular basis. Read on below to learn more:

Put your opponents on ice with this strike sync pair’s overwhelming Ice-type moves.

It’s Palentine’s Day on Pasio, and what better way to celebrate than with sweet treats! Last Palentine’s, Mallow donned an adorable ensemble to match her Appletun, who she received as an Applin from Victor. This time around, Victor decides to host a cooking class after Candice asks for some culinary counseling. Catch all their appetizing antics in Story Event: Victor’s Cooking Class!

Candice (Palentine’s 2024) & Darmanitan are an Ice-type strike sync pair prepared to ice cream the competition with Icicle Crash. Their strength as a sync pair is quick and to the point: they get a damage boost from their Hit the Gas 5 passive skill, and Icicle Crash deals tons of damage even without stat increases. Each time they use Icicle Crash, their Fighting Spirit Icicle Crash buddy move increases in power by 50 percent, up to a maximum power-up bonus of 200 percent.

That’s not all—their passive skill Is This Your Order? increases Candice (Palentine’s 2024) & Darmanitan’s Physical Moves ↑ Next effect by two stat ranks when Darmanitan changes between forms. It can be a bit tricky to maximize this passive skill, as it requires Candice (Palentine’s 2024) & Darmanitan to fall below 50 percent HP—or rise above 50 percent HP—but that’s remedied with a quick use of Potion.

For more details on this sync pair’s passive skills and moves, check out their in-game sync pair scout screen. Candice (Palentine’s 2024) & Darmanitan are available to scout until February 26, 2024, at 9:59 p.m. PST. And if you can’t get enough Palentine’s treats, Victor (Palentine’s 2024) & Greedent are also available to scout until February 26, 2024, at 9:59 p.m. PST.

Grusha & Cetitan
Grusha & Cetitan recently made their Pokémon Masters EX debut, and if you’ve managed to team up with this latest sync pair from Paldea, you’ll see that their skillset complements Candice (Palentine’s 2024) & Darmanitan’s icy mayhem nicely. Grusha’s Trainer move Let’s Cool Down! creates an Ice Zone and increases the power of all Ice-type moves—a perfect setup for Candice (Palentine’s 2024) & Darmanitan’s avalanche of Ice-type attacks. Both sync pairs also have appropriately chilling moves that can make their opponents flinch and buy time in the heat of battle.
Grusha & Cetitan are not currently available to scout, though they may return in the future!
Victor (Palentine’s 2024) & Greedent
These Trainers aren’t just working together on Palentine’s gifts—they’re also a great team in battle! While the synergy isn’t immediately apparent, Victor (Palentine’s 2024) & Greedent’s Sitrus Berry provides solid healing that can help control when and how often Candice (Palentine’s 2024) & Darmanitan’s Is This Your Order? passive skill kicks in. And the more times Candice (Palentine’s 2024) & Darmanitan change between Zen Mode to Standard Mode, the more their own Physical Moves ↑ Next effect will increase.
Victor (Palentine’s 2024) & Greedent are available to scout from the Victor Seasonal Scout and Victor Seasonal Tiered Scout until February 26, 2024, at 9:59 p.m. PST.

Happy Palentine’s Day, Trainers!
