Irida & Glaceon make their Pokémon Masters EX debut in a new Master Fair Scout, which is running through to July 9th

As announced at the end of May, Irida is making their Pokémon Masters EX debut today in a brand new Sync Pair together with her partner Glaceon. Irida & Glaceon's Master Fair Scout is available now, and will continue through until July 9th, at 10:59pm (PDT).

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!

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, Irida 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 her outfit to a white and blue in complement of her parner Pokémon.


The Irida 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 is the second of two brand new Master Fair-exclusive Sync Pairs making their debut this week after the launch of Adaman & Leafeon two days ago. Both sync pairs play a starring role in the Travelers from a Distant Past story event currently running in-game. The Pokémon Masters EX official Twitter account earlier today released new art of both sync pairs, as part of their ongoing Trainer Lodge Week. The Twitter account has also knowledged ongoing issues preventing some conversations showing properly in the Trainer Lodge, including those with Adaman. No estimate has yet been given for when these issues will be resolved.
