Pairs can be scouted from one of various showcases, which may offer different pairs, different appearance rates for certain pairs, or even exclusive pairs. While the official term for these showcases is "sync pair scouts", players typically call these showcases "'''banners'''" to avoid confusion with the action of scouting itself. | Pairs can be scouted from one of various showcases, which may offer different pairs, different appearance rates for certain pairs, or even exclusive pairs.

===Categories=== | |||
Sync pair scouts can fall into one of several categories, depending on the type of sync pairs featured in that scout. | |||
* '''Spotlight''': The featured character(s) are either already in the general scout pool, or will be added to it after their debut scout ends. | |||
* '''Poké Fair''': The featured character(s) can only be obtained through Poké Fair scouts. Sync pairs exclusively available in these scouts are called '''fair-exclusive'''. | |||
** A special type of Poké Fair scout, the Monthly Poké Fair Scout, features only a single sync pair each month, but all other fair-exclusive sync pairs that can be invited to the [[Trainer Lodge]] are also available with the same rates as non-limited 5★ pairs. | |||
* '''Master Fair''': The featured character(s) are master sync pairs, and can only be obtained through Master Fair scouts. Sync pairs exclusively available in these scouts are called '''Master Fair-exclusive'''. | |||
* '''Seasonal''': The featured character(s) are usually themed around a seasonal holiday, and can only be obtained through Seasonal scouts. These sync pairs always have the [[File:Theme skill icon fashion.png|20px|link=]] Seasonal Outfit or [[File:Theme skill icon fashion.png|20px|link=]] Special Costume [[theme skill]]s. | |||
* '''Variety''': The featured character(s) have their standard outfit but with a different Pokémon than their standard version, and can only be obtained through Variety scouts. These characters can be raised to 6★ EX, but they do not have an EX style or a sync pair story. | |||
** The only exception to this is {{mas|Ball Guy}}, who can only be obtained through Variety scouts, has an EX style, and has a sync pair story. | |||
