Legendary event

Legendary events are a type of limited-time event in Pokémon Masters. These focus on a specific sync pair with a Legendary Pokémon.

Lurking Shadow

The first legendary event ran from December 5 to 18, 2019. It was focused on the sync pair, Giovanni and Mewtwo. As with other events, players can earn vouchers to exchange with special items at the shop. Also, once the player collects 800 Custom Voucher 1, the final part of the story "A Questionable Alliance" is unlocked where the player is able to recruit Giovanni and Mewtwo.

Custom items can also be obtained to unlock moves and passive skills, increase the level cap and the potential of the Giovanni and Mewtwo sync pair.

Unlike previous events, this legendary event may return. As a result, vouchers are not automatically exchanged with coins, but will carry over.

Plot

The event starts with Giovanni asking Mewtwo to sow seeds of chaos.

At the Pokémon Center, Trista relays news of a strong sync pair causing trouble and warns the player to take caution when exploring the beach.

Brock, Misty and the player go out to the beach to help stop the trouble. They overhear some Team Break masked men discuss how strong the Trainer is and wonder whether they can make him their boss. However, one of them reveals that he had previously stated not being interested as he was already leader of Team Rainbow Rocket. Brock and Misty interrupt their conversation and Misty realizes that this must mean that Giovanni has come to Pasio. Brock explains to the player that Giovanni is the leader of Team Rocket in Kanto. They decide to stop him but the Team Break thugs try to stop them and start a battle. After being defeated, the masked men leave.

Brock, Misty and the player head into the cave where Giovanni is. After some time, they eventually find him. Misty confronts Giovanni asking what he is up to despite Team Rocket having being disbanded. Giovanni is surprised that Team Roket is disbanded and guesses he is doomed to be a criminal no matter which world he is in. Giovanni reveals he was able to mine a sync stone from the cave. He reveals his aim to bend the power of the sync stone to his will and to unleash the hidden power in them. He brings out Mewtwo and battles them to see what the sync stone is capable of.

After the battle, Giovanni sees that it is possible for the bond of a sync pair to manifest great strength. Brock doubts Giovanni will give up on seeking power and believes he was not treating that as a serious battle. Giovanni remarks that the battle was a test run. He dares the player to follow him to for a rematch and then disappears with a snap of his fingers.

The player finally corners Giovanni in a cave. He admits being impressed with the team's full power and asks whether they would like to work with him. Brock does not want to get involved with his evil schemes. Giovanni understands their doubts and states he has been thinking about changing his ways and starting afresh in this new part of the world. Both Brock and Misty are sceptical but Brock suggests that the player could keep an eye on Giovanni by letting him join the team. Giovanni promises not to get involved with Team Break and just to enjoy the PML. As they leave, Giovanni reflects that he has been able to infiltrate their unit successfully and is still deciding whether to truly start afresh or to plan something else.

Plot

The event starts with Rachel believing that Team Break have teleported a strong sync pair to Pasio.

At the Pokémon Center, Professor Bellis greets the player and tells them about the rumors of a strong Pokémon that has arrived at a mountain peak. Like Rachel, Professor Bellis believes that it must be a new sync pair and wonders who the Trainer is.

The player then joins Hau and Roxie early in the morning to catch the sunrise up on the mountain as well as to see this mysterious Pokémon. After defeating a Hiker itching for a battle, the trio arrive at the peak where many Trainers have gathered. Just as the sun rises, Solgaleo appears but with no sync pair Trainer in sight. Along with a wild Ponyta and Solrock that have come along with Solgaleo, the three Pokémon defeat all the Trainers on the mountain peak.

Solgaleo then challenges the player, Hau, and Roxie to a battle. After the player defeats Solgaleo, the Sunne Pokémon returns for a repeat battle, having re-energised itself by taking up the sunshine. After multiple battles, Solgaleo appears satisfied with its fill of battles and the trio head back down the mountain. However, Solgaleo follows them down, and Hau realises that Solgaleo would like to become a sync pair with the player.

The Dragon That Rules the Sky

The third legendary event run from January 30 to February 14, 2020. It was focused on the sync pair, Zinnia and Rayquaza. As with other events, players can earn vouchers to exchange with special items at the shop. Also, once the player collects 100 Custom Voucher 3, the final part of the story "A New Beginning" is unlocked where the player is able to recruit Zinnia and Rayquaza.

Custom items can also be obtained to unlock moves and passive skills, increase the level cap and the potential of the Zinnia and Rayquaza sync pair.

Vouchers are not automatically exchanged with coins once the event is finished, and will remain in the player's bag.

Plot

The event begins with Zinnia trying to locate Rayquaza at the glaciers.

At the Pokémon Center, Trista warns the player that there have been sightings of an unknown Dragon-type Pokémon near the glaciers. She claims that the Pokémon doesn't seem to have a Trainer, and is attacking anyone who comes near it.

Then player meets Professor Kukui at the glaciers, who has also come after having heard news of this Pokémon. He wonders why it is here with no Trainer and remarks that this is not the fist time a lone Pokémon has suddenly appeared.

Zinnia then attacks out of nowhere. Kukui is surprised at the attack but Zinnia rebuts that she was attacked earlier by Team Break. Kukui reassures her that they are not with Team Break, but Zinnia still battles them to prevent them from passing through.

After the battle, Zinnia admits that she is here for Rayquaza. Kukui wants to help her in case Team Break reappears, but Zinnia asks them to stay out of the way and heads off. Concerned, they follow after her.

Although they are not interrupted by Team Break on the way, Kukui is still worried that Rayquaza will be too strong for Zinnia alone. When Rayquaza attacks, Kukui and the player help to protect Zinnia and her Salamence. Kukui heals Salamence. Zinnia then reveals that her reason for approaching Rayquaza is because she was previously unable to fulfil a mission to save the world with Rayquaza. When she had heard Rayqauza was in Pasio, it had felt like a second chance to her.

Reluctantly, Zinnia agrees to enlist the help of Kukui and the player. After they defeat Rayquaza, Zinnia opens her heart and asks Rayquaza to lend her its strength so that she could one day fulfil her mission.

Rayquaza joins Zinnia, but Zinnia feels that it joined under one condition - to battle Kukui and the player again.
