Only one of each can be equipped to a team at a time. Gears also have an associated [[type]], and they provide the full stat boost for Pokémon in the team with the same type, while Pokémon of other types will receive only half the boost, rounded down to nearest integer.
Only one of each category of gear can be equipped to a team at a time.
 
===Type and stat boost===
Each piece of gear has an associated [[type]]. Sync pairs that possess the matching [[theme skill]] for that type will receive the full stat boosts of the gear, while sync pairs that do not possess it receive only half of the gear's stat boosts, rounded down to the nearest integer.
 
A sync pair's theme skill usually corresponds with the type of the pair's [[sync move]], but in cases where sync pairs can change the type of their sync move mid-battle (example: [[Gladion (Masters)#Silvally|Gladion & Silvally]]), the theme skill corresponds to the sync move's default typing.
* In this example, Gladion & Silvally would receive the full stat boost from Normal-type gear, even if they change their sync move type mid-battle.

A gear's level can be upgraded to increase the boost the gear provides.
===Upgrading gear===
A gear's level can be upgraded, to increase the stat boost that the gear provides.
* Increasing the level of a 1★ gear raises its stat boost by 1.
* Increasing the level of a 1★ gear raises its stat boost by 1.
* Increasing the level of a 2★ gear raises its stat boost by 2.

===Exchanging Gear===
===Exchanging gear===
Unwanted gear can be exchanged at the shop, in return for Coins and Type-specific Thread / Scissors / Needle materials. Notably, this is the only way to obtain the latter, which are required for upgrading 3★ gear.
