Pokemon Masters welcomes Clemont & Heliolisk to Pasio alongside a Flying-Type solo event and more

There is a lot of news for Pokemon Master this Tuesday morning. There is a new Sync Pair, Solo Event and difficulty level for the Main Story. Alongside this, there will also be new missions and bingo challenges to complete tied to these additions.

The new Sync Pair will be Clemont & Heliolisk. The duo is a 5-Star Tech Sync pair that seems designed entirely to frustrate opponents, even though they're all AI-controlled. Heliolisk has access to moves that lower the targets speed and accuracy whilst another increases its own speed and evasiveness.

On top of that, it also has a move that restores its own HP based on the damage dealt to the target. If a debuffing and evasive Pokemon is what you're looking for, you'll have an increased chance of pulling Clemont & Heliolisk in their Spotlight Scout that will run from today until 28th April.

Beyond that, there's a new type of solo event called 'Flying Types Incoming' that will run until 28th April! This event will task players with collecting Flying Permits in battles so that can take on higher difficulty fights. These tougher battles promise better rewards than those usually found in other areas, awarding players with the likes of Elite Four Notes, Buff Blend + and Tech Tonic +, among others.

There are four difficulties to overcome, with the number of attempts per day limited unless you use Replay Tickets. As the event name suggests all of the Pokemon will be Flying types, so bring your best Electric Sync Pairs to stand a better chance against them. There will also be 8 missions tied to this event that can earn players additional Gems and Co-op Sync Orbs.

Finally, a new difficulty level has been added to the Main Story so now you can battle through it again on Hard. Alongside this, there is a new login rally and three Mission Bingo cards to complete. The login bonuses will be a mixture of Gems and training items. The Mission Bingo Cards meanwhile will net players training items, Pearls, Evolution stones and Gems.

Pokemon Masters is available now over on the App Store and Google Play. It's a free-to-play game with in-app purchases.
