Festive Sun and Moon Story Event returns to Pokémon Masters EX alongside more Pokémon 30-Year Celebration rallies, plus June's Monthly Poké Fair Scout

Players today are getting another chance to partner up with two of Lillie's Sync Pairs with the return of the Festive Sun and Moon Story Event from the game's 5 Year Anniversary Celebrations, and the latest set of rallies as part of the ongoing 30-Year Celebrations. Also launching today is the game's latest Monthly Poké Fair, featuring Akari & Samurott.

Story Event: Festive Sun and Moon
In this story event, Lillie participates in a Grand Festival being held by Lear to celebrate the continued growth of Pasio. This event is available in-game now, and will continue until June 30th, at 10:59pm (PDT). Completing the first Story stage of the event, Lillie's New Outfit, will award all players with Lillie (Anniversary 2024) & Solgaleo for free.

Unlike its original run, which used the Event Points system, this run of the event will instead have players earning Event Voucher T items by completing battles, which can be exchanged for a variety of valuable items, including additional copies of 5★ Lillie (Anniversary 2024) & Solgaleo to raise her move level, custom ★ Power-Ups and a Lucky Cookie for Lillie (Anniversary 2024) & Solgaleo, Special Skill Feather 49, and 5★ Scout Tickets.

As usual for events of this type, players will receive bonus rewards if they take on event battles using teams that feature specific sync pairs. The more of these sync pairs that players place in their lineup, the greater the bonus received. The applicable Sync Pairs and reward rates are as follows:

• Lillie (Anniversary 2024) & Solgaleo: +60% (×1.6) bonus rewards
• Arc Suit Cynthia & Garchomp, Arc Suit Steven & Metagross, and Arc Suit Lance & Dragonite: +40% (×1.4) bonus rewards
• All other sync pairs with the Seasonal Outfit or Steel Theme Skills: +20% (×1.2) bonus rewards

These bonuses stack additively, so having a team consisting of Lillie (Anniversary 2024) & Solgaleo, Arc Suit Cynthia & Garchomp, and another Sync Pair with the Seasonal Outfit Theme Skill would grant a combined +120% (×2.2) rewards.

Players should also note the following when playing this event:

• The number of plays available for Daily Extreme Battle 1 are reset every day at 11:00pm (PDT).
• To participate, players must have completed Main Story Chapter 1: The More the Merrier (Normal) in single-player.
• The sync pairs that appear as opponents in battle have different capabilities than those players can actually obtain.
• All mission completion rewards must be claimed within three days of the mission period ending.
• Leftover Event Voucher T items will be automatically converted to coins at a rate of 10 coins per item at the end of the event, and sent to players' Present Boxes

Pokémon 30-Year Celebration
As discussed in the recent message from the game's producer, three separate rallies are commencing today for the Pokémon 30-Year Celebration.

Receive in-game artwork by viewing a returning Story Event
The Family Ties Story Event is returning to the game until December 31st, at 7:59pm (PST). This special run of the event for the 30-Year Celebration includes only the Story, and does not include any battle stages. Completing this event will award trainers with special artwork featuring Lillie and Clefairy.

Team up with Lillie (Holiday 2024) & Primarina by completing Special Missions
This set of Special Missions will be available until June 30th, at 10:59pm (PDT). Simply logging into the game will award players with Lillie (Holiday 2024) & Primarina. All necessary items to raise them to 6★ EX and unlock their Support EX Role can then be earned by leveling them up and using them in battle over the course of the month.

Receive a Gem Present each month
All players who log into the game before June 30th, at 10:59pm (PDT), will receive a gift of Gems ×1000

Monthly Poké Fair Scout Vol. 46
Monthly Poké Fair Scout Vol. 46, featuring Akari & Samurott, is available in-game now and will remain available until June 30th, at 10:59pm (PDT). This is Akari & Samurott's first ever appearance in the Monthly Poké Fair Scout.

As normal for Poké Fair Scouts, 5★ sync pairs have a 10% chance of appearing in this scout. The first five times players perform a Sync Pair Scout ×11 for the Monthly Poké Fair Scout Vol. 46, they will receive a bonus present of 3★ Friend Key ×15. These keys allow players to increase the Friendship Level Cap for a single Guest in the Trainer Lodge by 10. This Monthly Poké Fair Scout also includes a daily discount, where players can perform a single scout for ×100 paid gems. This daily discount can be used 1 time per day during the entire length of the scout.

Akari joins the Trainer Lodge
Alongside this latest Scout, Akari can now be unlocked as a Guest for the Trainer's Lodge. Players who pair up with Akari & Samurott in this latest Monthly Poké Fair Scout, or who have previously paired up with them in past Scouts, will immediately have access to them in their Trainer Lodge. Raising Akari & Samurott to Friendship Level 100 will allow players to unlock the new Akari & Mime Jr. Sync Pair.
