Did you know you can get 6000 gems if you log in to Pokémon Masters right now? Amazing, I know. That's a big reward and will allow you to pull 20 new sync-pairs in the game. That'll set you up for a while and give a big bit of variety to the types of Pokémon you have available to you.

Now that you're back in the game, it's time to jump back into the swing of things and finish off all of those Main Story missions. And once you've done that… Things get tricky.

The grind through the co-op story missions is a challenging one, and all the while you'll see that there's a third co-op mission for each category that you can't access. First, you must complete Get Strong With Gear.

Once that mission is complete, it reveals a totally new gear mechanic. How does it work? How do you unlock the mission? Read on for what you need to know…

Oh, and do check out our Ultimate Guide to Pokémon Masters for reviews, previews, guides, and much more. Ah yes, the three gears

In order to unlock the Get Stronger With Gear mission, you must defeat Cheren on Hard in co-op. That's the final co-op Main Story mission that will be available to you at this point and by far the toughest fight.

You'll do well to grind in training mode to unlock the level cap for your team, and then get them up to that cap in order to take Cheren down. Of course, you can train against all of the other co-op missions too, if you haven't done so already.

Once you've done so, you'll have unlocked the Get Stronger With Gear battle in the training area. This mission will give you access to gears, and a whole bunch of other battles to take part in.

Gear explained

Now that you've unlocked gear, you can earn even more gears through the EX training missions, and of course, by taking down those main story co-op missions we couldn't play before. So what do gears do?

Essentially, you can equip a gear of each type before a battle, a bracelet, a bandanna, and a pin. Each will offer different buffs, and will be tuned to a different Pokémon type. Not only that, but you can upgrade the gear to enhance their effects.

Of course, you'll need new materials for those upgrades, but now that you've unlocked a whole host of new battles that won't be a problem.

EX training

Now that you've cleared Get Stronger With Gear, you will also have a bunch of brand new EX Training missions available in the co-op training area.

The only problem? These are tough. Like, really, really tough. You can't even play them unless you've managed to amass a massive total power level.

You will need to grind against training mode and practice really hard in order to become strong enough to take on these missions, let alone clear them with online partners.

The battle never ends

Right, now you have new co-op missions, new gears, new Pokémon sync-pairs, and a lot of training to do, but this is still not the end.

While you may have come to the end of the story mode for now, DeNA promise that more story content is coming to Pokémon Masters in the future, more training missions, more events, and more sync-pairs to keep you playing.

Until then, do your best to level up, earn as many coins as possible, unlock those level caps, and you'll be one of the strongest trainers in the world. Perhaps, even, a Pokémon Master.
