Fight or Fright (Japanese: トリック オア バトル) was a story event in Pokémon Masters EX. It was focused on the sync pairs Acerola and Mimikyu and Hilbert and Mightyena.
During this event, players could earn Parade Gumballs, Parade Wafers, Parade Truffles, and Parade Sweets Bags from battles that could be redeemed in the Shop. All battles could be challenged an unlimited number of times except Fight or Fright! Round 8, which could only be challenged once per day. Extra sweets were automatically exchanged with coins once the event was finished.
The player could battle using Acerola (Fall 2020) and Mimikyu or Hilbert (Fall 2020) and Mightyena to obtain +0.6× bonus sweets; Morty and Drifblim or Fantina and Mismagius to obtain +0.4× bonus sweets; and Shauntal and Chandelure, Agatha and Gengar, Acerola and Palossand, the player character and Pikachu, or the player character and Torchic to obtain +0.2× bonus sweets.
This event featured the Full-Force Battle, where players were challenged to defeat a large group of strong opponents. Similar to the Legendary Arena, players could use multiple teams with a limited number of total sync pairs, with the opponents' health carrying over between rounds and with previously used pairs unable to be used again until the challenge is reset. Medals could be earned by completing specific missions.
In addition, players could earn a medal for completing all the story areas in the event.

Acerola | We're going to get soooo much candy! |
Acerola | Fight or friiiiight! Tee-hee! Acerola here, ready for some trick-or-treating! |
Hilbert | I'm all set, too! I can't wait to get out there and see what sort of battles await us tonight! |
- Trick or Treat!
Name | Text |

Acerola | Fight or fright! Face me in a Pokémon battle, or I'll play a scary trick on yooou! Tee-hee! |
Hilbert | Wahh! Acerola, I told you not to sneak up on me like that! We said we weren't gonna start any of that until we go out later tonight, remember? |
Acerola | Oops! Sorry, Hilbert! I guess I just got a little too excited... |
Hilbert | Sorry about that, <player>. We're actually getting ready to do some trick-or-treating in town tonight. |
Acerola | Yeah! Only on Pasio, there's a special rule: you have to say “Fight or fright!” and have a Pokémon battle! Then when the battle is over, the loser has to give the winner some of their candy. Tee-hee! Oh! Were you wondering about my costume? I thought dressing up would make trick-or-treating more fun for all the tiny tots out there tonight! What do you think, <player>? Wanna come with us and get some candy?! |
Hilbert | Yeah, why don't you join us? It'll be fun! |
Acerola | We'll probably head over soon, but you can meet up with us later when you're ready, OK? See you there! |
Youngster | Fight or fright! If I win, you have to give me your candy! |
Preschooler | Fight or fwight! Don't go easy on me just b'cause I'm wittle! |
Player | I wonder where Acerola and Hilbert are... Wow, the city's all decked out! |
Acerola | Oh, <player>! It's you! Looks like you found my Mimikyu! |
Hilbert | We were a little worried at first since he bolted all of a sudden. Glad you found each other! |
Acerola | He must have run off when he spotted you and Pikachu! |
Hilbert | Y'know, I think I read somewhere that Mimikyu disguise themselves as Pikachu to get close to people and other Pokémon... Have you noticed that your Pikachu hasn't stopped staring at Acerola's Mimikyu since you arrived? Maybe Mimikyu's disguise is making him curious. |
Acerola | Now that you mention it, I think I saw Pikachu staring at Mimikyu while we were in the Pokémon Center, too! If he's giving you this much attention, he must really want to be your friend, Mimikyu! Isn't that great? That reminds me... Where's Palossand?: Oh, she's not here today! She and Oshawott are playing with some kids at the beach. |
Hilbert | Are you with Mightyena, Hilbert?: Yeah! He and I are partners tonight. Oshawott is over at the beach playing with Acerola's Palossand. We didn't want to disturb all the fun they were having, so we let them stay and play. |
Acerola | Yep! I'm gonna collect a whooole bunch of candy tonight so I can share it with everyone back at the beach! |
Hilbert | In that case, you'd better get your special shout ready! We've got a bunch of battles to win! |
Acerola | You got it! Mimikyu and I will be scooping up all the competition tonight! |

Acerola | Fight or fright! I hope you accept my challenge, because if you don't... Tee-hee! You'll have to face my bag of tricks instead! |
Hilbert | Fight or fright! I don't know about you, but I prefer Pokémon battling to getting the pants scared off of me! |
Acerola | Woo-hoo! Look at all the candy I won! |
Hilbert | Nice! Looks like you've already got a pretty good stash. This is just the beginning, though! |
??? | Yep! The real battles are just getting started! Halt! Who goes there?!: Haha! Aren't you funny tonight! 'Tis I, a worthy challenger! I recognize that voice...: Haha! I thought I could surprise you, but you're too quick for me, <player>! |
Hilda | Come on, let's have a Pokémon battle! Hilbert, I challenge you! |
Hilbert | Hang on a sec! Challenging me to a battle is totally fine, but...you do know what's going on tonight, right?! |
Hilda | Of course! Wherever the Pokémon battles are, that's where I'm gonna be. No one loves battling more than me! |
Hilbert | Right... But we're not just battling tonight. There's candy and... |
Acerola | If you want to challenge somebody to a battle, there's a special rule you have to remember! |
Hilda | Ohhh, I know what you're talking about! Haha! OK! |
Hilbert | Wait, you DO know about the special rule then? Phew, that's good... |
Hilda | Duh! "If two Trainers' eyes meet, they've got to have a Pokémon battle!" Come on, let's go! I'm coming at you with everything I've got! |
Hilbert | Huh? No, no! That's not the rule we're talking about, Hilda! |
Hilbert | All right, the battle's over now, Hilda. *sigh* This is getting exhausting... |
Hilda | Exhausted already? You're just getting lazy now, Hilbert. Remember how hard we used to fight on the Battle Subway? |
Hilbert | Yeah, of course I do. But battling isn't what's making me exhausted... Listen, Hilda. I think you're confused. |
Hilda | Huh? What are you talking about? |
Hilda | Ohhh... Fight or fright, huh? Why didn't you just tell me all of that in the first place? |
Hilbert | Acerola tried, but you rushed us into a battle before she could finish explaining... |
Hilda | Whoops! Hehe... We can just, y'know, forget all that happened, though, right? Besides, if you're looking for candy, I think I might have a lead for you! The people I battled earlier actually gave me some! |
Acerola | Really?! Can you tell us where they are? |
Hilda | Sure! After such a great battle with you guys, it's the least I could do! |
- Halt! Who goes there?!

Hilbert | I'm pretty sure this is the spot Hilda mentioned... |
Acerola | There's nobody here.: I know this spot! Ghost Pokémon love to lurk around in places like this! I think this forest is haunted...: Tee-hee! I know this spot! Ghost Pokémon love to lurk around in places like this! I wonder if there are any cuties floating around the forest now. |
Hilbert | Now that you mention it...this place does kind of give me the heebie-jeebies. (If anything happens, it'll be up to me to protect everyone!) |
Acerola | Oh my gosh! What a cutie! Where did you come from, buddy? |
Hilbert | It couldn't be a wild Pokémon, could it? There aren't supposed to be any on Pasio... Wait, I think something else is hiding over there! Everyone, get behind me! |
Acerola | Yay! It's another Ghost Pokémon! Tonight must be my lucky night, you guys! And where did you come from, cutie pie? Wanna come play in the forest with us? |
Hilbert | Something's not right here... That's the second Pokémon we've encountered without its Trainer tonight... |
Hilbert | I saw something in the bushes!/Maybe this forest IS haunted?!: *gulp* Y-you don't think that was a...a... |
Acerola | Hilbert, <player>! There's something over there! |
Hilbert | All right! Let's do this, Mightyena! |
Acerola | Oh my gosh! It's a Chandelure! Look how cute it is! Ahhhh! |
Hilbert | Wait a sec... I feel like I've seen these three Pokémon together somewhere before... |
??? | Wahh! Are you kidding me?! |
Acerola | Huh? I think I recognize that voice... |
- Off to Find Some Candy!

Shauntal | "The knight stood bravely in front of the beautiful princess, ready to protect her from harm... "He had no choice but to unleash the dark powers sealed within him. Fangs bared, he leaped at the enemy!" Oh my goodness, you two are simply perfect! Yes...I haven't felt this inspired in weeks! |
Hilbert | I didn't think I could make someone so happy just by wearing a costume! I'm glad I dressed up. |
Acerola | Me too! The look on Shauntal's face alone makes all the effort worth it. She looks so happy! |
Morty | What brings you here, Shauntal?: Ahh, there you are, Shaunt— Wait, what's going on here? |
Agatha | Did you come here alone?: Ahh, we were wondering where you ran off to, Shauntal... What's all this, then, hm? |
Shauntal | I came this way looking for our Pokémon, but I ended up finding Acerola and the others, too! We were just chatting a bit! |
Morty | A bit, huh? All of that fresh ink in your notebook seems to suggest otherwise. |
Shauntal | Oh, how could I NOT write, Morty? Have you seen the wonderful costumes these two are wearing tonight?! Acerola looks like the spitting image of Mimikyu in that adorable hood, doesn't she? It's like she used Disguise herself! And Hilbert looks just like a Mightyena lurking in the shadows, waiting for the perfect opportunity to leap out and catch his prey! With such perfect muses right before my eyes, this novel is practically writing itself! |
Agatha | That's all fine and dandy, as long as you haven't forgotten the reason we came here in the first place. |
Acerola | Wait a minute... Did you three come here to get candy, too?! |
Agatha | Candy? Ah, you mean that "fight or fright" thing... Sorry, child. That's not why we're here. |
Morty | We've all gathered here for the Midnight Parade. We Ghost-type users are going to march through town with our Pokémon while all of the spooky decorations are on display. |
Shauntal | The magical, mysterious atmosphere downtown inspired us to do something extra special! We're hoping that other Ghost-type users will come and enjoy the parade with us as well. |
Acerola | The Midnight Parade?! That sounds so amazing! Can I march, too? I want to be in the parade! |
Agatha | Me too!: I had a feeling you'd say that. What do you think, Morty? Shauntal? That sounds like fun!: Do you want to join in, too, then? Morty, Shauntal, what do you think? |
Shauntal | I would love to have all of you join the parade! But first, we'll need to make sure you're apt to participate, right, Morty? |
Morty | That's right. If you can prove your knowledge of Ghost-type Pokémon by defeating us in a battle, you can join us in the parade. And as long as you say the magic words, we'll throw some candy in as well. |
Acerola | Really?! You'll give us candy, too?! In that case, I'll give this battle everything I've got! No holding back! Come on, guys! That candy is as good as ours! Fight or fright! |
- The Midnight Parade
Name | Text |
---|---|
Shauntal | "The three challengers fought tooth and nail to earn the right to march in the Midnight Parade... "And when the battle ended, they smiled in triumph, knowing they had proven themselves worthy of the honor." What a magnificent battle! I'm sure you'll do wonderfully in the parade! |
Morty | Agreed. You three did impressively well. I almost want to ask for a rematch just so that we can continue training together... But I suppose that can wait for another time. |
Agatha | Oh ho! I think that would be wise, Morty! Best you save that secret training of yours for another day. Now, then! I think it's time we show Pasio just how magnificent we Ghost-type users can be. |
Preschooler | Yay, yay! Sooo many ghooosts! Look, it's Mimikyu! Cuuuute! |
Acerola | Tee-hee! Mimikyu's probably so happy to have fans who think he's cute! |
Youngster | Whoa! Where did you get that costume, Bro?! You look so cooool! |
Hilbert | Thanks! Mightyena and I are twins today! |
Youngster | Mightyena looks so cool, toooo! Can we have a battle?! I wanna see you guys fight together! |
Acerola | Did I hear something about a battle? Don't forget about me! |
Preschooler | Me too! Me too! I wanna battle, too! Fight or fwight! |
Morty | It looks like the Ghost Pokémon are a hit. |
Shauntal | They all look happier than a hero in a fairy tale! |
Agatha | I guess it's good to do something festive every now and again, eh? |
Acerola | You're on, kids! Bet you can't beat meee! |
Hilbert | Haha! I don't plan on losing, either! Come on, <player>! Let's do this! |
Youngster | Your candy is gonna be all mine! Haha! Here I go! Fight or fright! |
Hilbert | Fight or friiight!: Nice one! Let's give these kids a run for their candy! No way! Your candy is ours!: All right, then! It's time to fight or fright! |
Acerola | We're gonna scoop up this battle and scoot away with all your candy! Tee-hee! |
