New Training Feature - The Sync Grid

Sync pairs now have a new way to train with their own unique sync grids! Plus, the sync grids for the following sync pairs have been expanded! Note: Changes will be reflected after updating the app to version 1.5.5 or higher. The exact time the update becomes available may differ for each player.

Expanded Sync Grids

• Player character & Pikachu
• Flannery & Torkoal
• Flint & Infernape

Other sync pairs will also have their sync grids expanded in the future. Customize your favorite sync pairs to make them unique!

What Are Sync Grids?

• Use sync orbs specific to each sync pair to strengthen them in a variety of different ways.
• Each sync pair has a limited amount of energy available for activating grid skill tiles, so not all grid skills can be learned at once.

How to Collect Sync Orbs

• A Sync orb chance! message may appear at the start of a battle.
• Use sync moves during one of these battles to obtain sync orbs for the corresponding sync pair.
• Co-op sync orbs can be obtained from co-op battles. These can be exchanged for sync pair-specific sync orbs on the Sync Grid menu.

Battle using your favorite sync pairs and strengthen your team!

Important

• To unlock the Sync Grid feature, you must complete Main Story Chapter 11, Alola’s Rising Stars: Part 2.
• Sync orb chances will begin occurring after the sync grid has been unlocked.
• Check the Game Hints to learn more.
