Pokemon Masters

Apparently there's been a leak and Leaf is in. Not "Green", but "Leaf". I take the supposed leak with a lick of salt right now.

Caitlin's being introduced soon.

I think Leaf's placeholder data was in the game for quite a while now, actually.

Heheh, got Caitlin as my very first pull.

Guess I'll just pull on the Brendan banner for now.

New story chapters are live!

And with it, the new Sync Pair Calem and Espurr (Why Espurr?) is live, as is... a Torchic for the player avatar? And judging by the fact that its Sync Move is just Fire Impact, we'll be able to evolve it to Blaziken eventually.

Espurr's the memey Pokemon of Gen 6, I guess?

I guess, but A) Olympia's already a canon Meowstic user and B) I'd have figured Calem and Serena would have been spots to use two of the three Kalos starters.

So we've got seasonal alts and playable Lance.

That grid feature looks interesting.

I wonder what other Legendary sync pairs we'll see. I guess they could keep the Rainbow Rocket theme and give box legends to villain teams, or they could be the protagonist characters' Sygna Suit pairs instead. Like Lucas and Dawn with Dialga and Palkia.

With full voice acting action.

That's not a voice i'd expect from Giovanni.

Giovanni? Lance sounds nothing like I'd ever expect for his character.

Hoo boy, that's a lot of fighting you gotta do to get yourself your very own Giovanni'n'Mootoo.

Anybody got a good team together for taking down the higher-rank Mewtwo battles? I've been doing it with random teammates but they all suck ass. I saw one guy lead with Cryogonal but not even use Haze.

I currently run karen, phoebe, and Olivia. Nanu is a decent poor mans liepard for 3rd slot, and his screech can come in clutch for the heavier hitters.

As for Super Hard, i have yet to clear it in pubs. 2 people know what to do but some poor sob forgets how deadly the assistants can be.

I've got a level 100 Grimsley and 80 Nanu, but no Karen, alas.

Liepard's Snatch is useful for neutralizing Mewtwo's absurd buffs, but Brycen neutralizing all three of 'em with Haze is probably much more useful.

Snatch should be used after the sync move when both other mobs are dead. Gives you a powerful ally in the final stretch

If you're available some time and can bring in a third, perhaps we could fight Super Hard Gio as a team? Would probably be easier than relying on pubs.

Finally beat hardest Giovanni on pubs. I was running Brycen/Karen/Cheren (did not realize the rhyme until I wrote that) and just had to keep praying for decent teammates.

Late to that trailer. I think Lance's youthful voice would fit Blue better. Giovanni's voice is way too young.

I'm still waiting for Silver, if only so that he has a Canon Name already.

The holiday event is live now.

Mallow with Tsareena is in the game now as part of the new story, though probably not pullable yet. Not sure on the voice actor.

Holiday Rosa's Delibird is, surprisingly, a Flying-type rather than an Ice-type. Pretty good for a flightless bird.

After clearing the story event I dumped all my gems into the two banners, and got both Siebold and Rosa. Also got Karen, whom I'd been missing up until now, and my third Kris. Pretty good haul, might pull more on Siebold's banner to try and get Brendan.

Solgaleo is our next Legendary Event. No word on who its trainer partner is.

Version 1.5 is live, and with it comes a new feature called Mission Bingo!

Each week you get to choose a bingo sheet of missions to complete, earning rewards for clearing lines and filling in the entire board if you can do it within the week. There are also four permanent boards of progressively-harder missions you can only clear once each.

Supercourses can now only be played one time each, but give triple the rewards.

Both the shop system and the daily missions system have been revamped, but said changes won't become live until the 26th.

The Dex now includes model viewers for both the Trainers and Pokemon, allowing you to zoom and rotate, play animations, and trigger voice clips.

EDIT: If you want an easy 1,000 Gems, go and ruin Rosa's afterparty by crushing her weak-ass team in the new event. It's only up for a day.

Leaf is in the game now. Ethan too.

Oh, hey, somebody else actually posted in this thread.

But yes, they're both live, as is a whole bunch of other stuff. We're also likely getting Kyurem soon, assuming the Dragon-type legendary spotted in the glaciers that is weak to Rock-type isn't just Rayquaza or something.

We've been bamboozled!

Turns out the next legendary event isn't Kyurem, but in fact good ol' Rayquaza, courtesy of Zinnia.
