Why It Matters
Pokémon Masters EX continues to evolve by breathing new life into classic characters, and this update is no exception. The pairing of Trainers with Pokémon not typically associated with them—like Marnie and Cyclizar, or Morty and Hisuian Typhlosion—adds depth and excitement for both fans and strategists alike.
With vibrant new character designs, strategic Sync Pair options, and a compelling storyline, the Academy event is shaping up to be one of Pokémon Masters EX’s most engaging updates this year. Make sure to log in on April 15 and experience it for yourself!
