Olympia & Sigilyph make their Pokémon Masters EX debut, alongside launch of new Daily Type Rotation event

Olympia, the Gym Leader of Anistar City, is making their Pokémon Masters EX debut today in a sync pair together with their partner Sigilyph. Also launching today is a Daily Type Rotation event, Type Team-Up. This is the first Daily Type Rotation event in two years, since the end of the original Type Team-Up event in August 2021.

Olympia Spotlight Scouts
Olympia & Sigilyph make their debut in the Olympia Spotlight Scout. Olympia is the last Kalos Gym Leader to be added to Pokémon Masters EX, over three years after the second-to-last Kalos Gym Leader, Clemont, was added to the game. Her addition makes Kalos the second region to have all its Gym Leaders playable in the game, behind Kanto.

Olympia & Sigilyph are 5★ a Psychic-type Tech sync pair with an expanded sync grid, and the ability to be raised to 6★ EX. Raising the pair to 6★ EX changes her outfit to a palette matching Meowstic, her signature Pokémon in the core series games. The pair's moves focus on boosting their stats to do high amounts of damage, while providing additional buffs and stat protection to allies. Their Swag Bag 2 Passive Skill raises the chances of their stat values increasing with additional effects of moves, allowing them to get the most of their Ancient Power move, which has a chance of raising Attack, Defense, Sp. Atk, Sp. Def, and Speed by 1 stat rank. Once their stats have been sufficiently raised, the pair can then do insense damage using either Stored Power or their Starlight Path Psychic sync move, both of which increase in power the more the pair's stats are raised.

​

In addition to the regular Spotlight Scout, Trainers can also take advantage of an Olympia Spotlight Scout + Present! Limit 3!, a special Sync Pair Scout requiring paid gems, that, as the name implies, can be used up to 3 times. Players will receive a 50% discount on their first Sync Pair Scout x11 for this special Spotlight Scout, making it 1,500 Gems rather than the usual 3,000. As an added bonus, players will also receive bonus items every time they do a Sync Pair Scout x11 for this special Spotlight Scout. The bonuses that are received are as follows.

Daily Type Rotation: Type Team-Up
Daily Type Rotation is a type of limited-time event in Pokémon Masters EX, involving battles that feature each type, with a new battle being added each day over the course of the event. By completing battles in this event, players can earn Tomes and Codexs for each type, as well as 100 Gems in First-Time Rewards for each battle.

The first and only previous Daily Type Rotation event ran from August 5th to 28th, 2021.
