'''Zone''' (Japanese: '''ゾーン''' ''Zone'') is a type of field effect in the [[Pokémon games]] that affects all Pokémon on the field. The mechanic was introduced in [[Pokémon Masters EX]]. Only one type of zone may be present at a time, with any new zone put in place overwriting the previous zone. Zones can run concurrently alongside [[weather]] and [[terrain]]. Similar to these field effects, zones will last for 45 seconds (not including [[sync move]]s or [[Max Move]]s), unless the same type of zone is summoned again or a Pokémon on the field has a certain skill that extends the duration of zones.

Similar to these field effects, zones will last for 45 seconds (not including [[sync move]]s or [[Max Move]]s), unless the same type of zone is summoned again or a Pokémon on the field has a certain skill that extends the duration of zones.


There are so far twelve types of zones (in order of release): Ghost Zone, Dragon Zone, Steel Zone, Dark Zone, Flying Zone, Bug Zone, Ground Zone, Fighting Zone, Fairy Zone, Poison Zone, Rock Zone, and Ice Zone. Each zone powers up attacks of the corresponding type (e.g., Ghost Zone powers up {{type|Ghost}} moves).
There are thirteen types of zones, one for each type whose moves are not powered up by a weather or terrain effect. In order of release, the zones are Ghost Zone, Dragon Zone, Steel Zone, Dark Zone, Flying Zone, Bug Zone, Ground Zone, Fighting Zone, Fairy Zone, Poison Zone, Rock Zone, Ice Zone, and Normal Zone. Each zone powers up attacks of the corresponding type (e.g., Ghost Zone powers up {{type|Ghost}} moves).

Zone effects may be applied through {{DL|List of moves (Masters)|Wishes|item moves}}, Trainer moves, buddy moves, and {{mas|Skill}}s. Some [[File:Masters Field.png|32px]]Field sync pairs can set a zone using their [[sync move]] after being raised to {{6EX}} (including those with the Field EX role).

===By [[6★ EX]] [[sync move]]===
The following field sync pairs, when raised to 6★ EX, will implement a zone just before their sync move is used for the first time in a battle. The duration of this zone is also extended. Sync pairs with a field EX role need to be raised to 6★ EX and receive a Field Roll Cake in order to access this effect.
