==Sync pair stories==
==Side Area==
The Side Area is a hub for side content that can be taken on at any time. Currently, there are two sub-menus in the Side Area: Sync Pair Stories and Challenge the Strong.
 
===Sync Pair Stories===
<!--{{main|Sync pair story}}-->
Most sync pairs have a unique sync pair story, which allows players to learn more about the sync pair. A sync pair's sync pair story is unlocked once the pair is recruited.

Line 666: Line 670:
Some sync pair stories involve a battle which allows the sync pair to [[Evolution|evolve]] their Pokémon; these are called Evolution sync pair stories. Unlike the usual three-on-three battle system seen in Pokémon Masters EX, Evolution story battles are one-on-one and require the {{player}} to bring Evolution items. If the player is defeated in an Evolution sync pair story, the Evolution items will not be used up. These sync pair stories can be replayed even after the Pokémon has already evolved; the Pokémon will appear in its unevolved state during the story segments, and its evolved state during the battle.

Some sync pairs do not have traditional sync pair stories, and instead have the ability to replay certain story segments involving them. These include sync pairs in special costumes, which replay part of the corresponding [[costume event]]; most sync pairs in seasonal outfits, which replay the corresponding [[seasonal event]]; and most sync pairs available through [[Legendary Adventures]], which replay the corresponding [[legendary event]]. As legendary event stories are now permanently available through Legendary Adventures, these sync pair stories are completely redundant.
The requirements for completing an Evolution sync pair story are as follows:
 
Some sync pairs do not have sync pair stories at all. These include most sync pairs available through variety scouts, BP Vouchers, and [[special sync pair event]]s. These are marked in the sync pair scout or exchange menu with a Trainer icon covered by a red x.

===Challenge the Strong===
<!--{{main|Ultimate Battle}}-->
Challenge the Strong is a type of permanent battle content that was added on November 14, 2023. This area is unlocked after the player has completed [[Champion Stadium]] Hard Lv. 1 for any region. Each battle has the Ultimate difficulty level, and as such, is called an Ultimate Battle. These battles feature powerful sync pair bosses with very high amounts of HP and powerful passive skills, so high-leveled sync pairs and a good strategy are necessary to clear one of these battles.
