Hisui Master Sync Pairs and Scouts
Two brand new Master Fair-exclusive Sync Pairs, both of whom play a starring role in the Travelers from a Distant Past story event, will be making their debuts over the coming week.

Adaman & Leafeon are a Grass-type Tech Sync Pair, with the ability to buff themselves and debuff opponents, as well as having increased chances for landing critical hits. Their No Time Like the Present! trainer move increases their Attack by a full 6 stat ranks, Defense by 5 stat ranks, and when the weather is sunny, also reduces their Sync Move countdown by 1. After opening with this move, they can then immediately launch their B Razor Leaf Buddy move, which in addition to having an improved critical hit chance, lowers all opponents’ Grass Type Rebuff by 1 rank and Defense by 1 stat rank. This debuff to Defense is increased to 2 ranks when the weather is Sunny, which it will be thanks to the Time Flows over Hisui Passive Skill, which makes the weather Sunny when the pair enters battle and after they use their Sync Move. Together with their Clutch Critical and Critical Freebie 9 Passive Skills, which respectively make critical hits a near certainty and give the Free Move Next effect to the pair whenever a critical hit is landed, and this pair will be constantly hitting opponents in their weak spots.

​

Adaman's Master Fair scout is available right now, and will run through to June 9th at 10:59pm (PDT). As usual for Master Fair scouts, 5★ Sync Pairs will have a 12% chance of appearing, with the featured pair having a higher chance of appearing than other pairs. In conjunction with this scout, Adaman has been released with an expanded Sync Grid, as well as the ability to be raised to 6★ EX status, which switches the palette of his outfit to a white coat over a green tunic.

Players who team up with Adaman & Leafeon will also be able to obtain the new Hisui Style for the Trainer Lodge, as well as welcome him as a guest to the Trainer Lodge.

​

The Adaman Master Fair Scout includes a daily discount, where players can perform a single scout for x100 paid gems. This daily discount can be used 1 time per day during the entire length of the scout. Additionally, the first five times players perform a Sync Pair Scout x11 for this scout, they will also receive the following bonus presents:

• 1st Scout: Strike Move Candy Coin x1
• 2nd Scout: 5★ Power-Up x2
• 3rd Scout: Strike Move Candy Coin x1, Tech Move Candy Coin x1
• 4th Scout: 5★ Power-Up x4
• 5th Scout: Strike Move Candy Coin x1, Tech Move Candy Coin x1, Support Move Candy Coin x1

Irida & Glaceon are an Ice-type Tech Sync Pair, who are debuting the brand new Ice Wish move. This move creates an Ice Zone, increasing the power of Ice-type attacks. This combos with their passive skills Watch for Ice, which causes hailstorms when they create an Ice Zone, and Space Spread over Hisui, which protects their entire team from hailstorm damage, while also powering up all allies moves and quickly charging the move gauge as long as the hailstorm continues. Indeed, most of Irida & Glaceon's moves all center around hailstorms, with their Chilled to Your Core! trainer move, which increases their Sp. Attack by 4 stat ranks and their critical-hit rate by 3 stat ranks also applying the Gradual Healing effect to all allies during a hailstorm. Follow this up with their B Ice Beam Buddy move, which can only be used when a hailstorm is caused, to deal high damage that never misses, while also lowering opponent’s Sp. Def by 4 stat ranks, applying the Move Gauge Acceleration effect to the allied field of play, and applying Free Move Next to Irida & Glaceon!

Irida & Glaceon's Master Fair Scout will begin from June 1st at 11:00pm (PDT), and continue until July 9th, at 10:59pm (PDT)

Master Fair Gem Special
In conjunction with the Adaman Master Fair Scout, the following four Gem Specials will be available in the purchase gems tab of the in-game shop until July 4th, at 10:59pm (PDT), offering discounted prices on paid gems.

• May Master Fair gem special 1: Gems x300
