Trainer Files
Trainer Files (Japanese: トレーナーズファイル Trainers File) is a type of limited-time event in Pokémon Masters EX. These events are similar to solo events, in that the only story areas they contain are an introductory story area and an additional story area that is unlocked after completing battles to collect a certain number of event items. However, Trainer Files events focus certain groups of Trainers, such as the Kanto Elite Four or the Akala Island Trial Captains, and the stories are driven by the values and relationships of the focal characters.
In addition, the sync pairs featured in Trainer Files events are exclusively available in variety scouts.
Kanto Elite Four (Part 1)
This event ran from April 20 to May 14, 2023. This event was focused on Lorelei and Bruno.

During this event, players could earn Event Vouchers H from battles that could be redeemed in the shop. All battles could be challenged an unlimited number of times except Daily Extreme Battle 1, which could only be challenged once per day. Extra vouchers were automatically exchanged with coins once the event was finished.
The player could battle using Lorelei and Cloyster or Bruno and Onix to obtain +0.6× bonus vouchers; and any unlisted sync pairs with the Kanto or Elite Four theme skills to earn +0.2× bonus vouchers.

Plot
Kiawe, Lana, and Mallow are trying Cilan, Chili, and Cress's specialty tea. It's delicious, and the triplets attribute this to their teamwork with Grass, Fire, and Water. This gives Mallow the idea to try making a dish with Kiawe and Lana, since they're also specialists of those three types. She doesn't want to make the same Mallow Special that they use for the trials, though, so they'll have to come up with a new recipe. Cilan asks to try their dish when it's done.
After a while, the two trios meet back up to try the dish. However, Kiawe, Mallow, and Lana insist that even though it's finished, they can't eat it yet; they have to wait a little longer, with Kiawe's Arcanine keeping it warm while they wait. When night falls, the dish suddenly starts glowing, and Mallow explains that's due to the effect of her Shiinotic's spores. Cilan has heard that Shiinotic's spores glow in the dark to send its prey to sleep, and Cress worries it's not safe to eat. Mallow assures him it's fine, and the triplets try the dish. The taste is a bit peculiar, and it starts to make them sleepy, but suddenly it becomes unbearably spicy, so Lana's Araquanid cools them down. Mallow asks them what they thought of the dish, which has been dubbed the "Akala Trio Special", and they say that it was a unique dining experience that couldn't have been accomplished by anyone else.

Cilan | What do you think of our specialty tea? |
Lana | It was very tasty! |
Kiawe | Yeah, I could feel it flow through my body. On top of that, the temperature was just right. |
Chili | I'm not surprised, considering I poured the hot water at the perfect temperature! |
Cress | And I, Cress, prepared the purest water... |
Cilan | And I chose the tea leaves—which are vital—with confidence. Our teamwork—using Grass, Fire, and Water—creates the best tea! |
Mallow | Hmm... |
Kiawe | What's wrong, Mallow? There's no way you didn't like the tea, right? |
Mallow | The tea was really tasty. That's why... we should try it too! The three of us teaming up and cooking! |
Lana | I see. We are Captains of Grass, Fire, and Water, just like them. |
Kiawe | Wait. Have you forgotten, Mallow? We have our own teamwork too! |
Mallow | Huh? |
Kiawe | I bring the Thick Club and Rare Bone... |
Lana | And I, Lana, bring the Fresh Water and Rocky Helmet as usual... |
Kiawe | and you take the collected ingredients and smack 'em and crush 'em, grind 'em, and turn 'em into goo for— |
Mallow | The Mallow Special is for the trials! I want to make something else! |
Kiawe | I see... Then we'll have to come up with another recipe. |
Cress | This sounds interesting. |
Cilan | When your dish is done, please let us have a try. |
Mallow | Of course! We'll make a dish just as good as your perfect tea! |

Cilan | You three perfected your team-up cooking, right? | |
Chili | But why at this hour? | |
Cress | It seems the dish is already made, but can we not eat it yet? | |
Kiawe | Arcanine will make sure the dish doesn't get cold. Please wait. | |
Chili | Whoa! | |
Cilan | The dish is glowing! | |
Cress | This is beautiful... How did you do it? | |
Mallow | The secret is Shiinotic's spores! | |
Chili | Wh-whaaat?! | |
Cilan | I did hear that Shiinotic's spores glow in the dark. But they're meant to send its prey to sleep... | |
Cress | Is...is it safe for people to eat? | |
Mallow | Yep! Don't worry about that! | |
Lana | Please eat up! | |
Cilan | W-well then... | |
Cress | Hmm...very peculiar, but...there's something about it... | |
Chili | Uh... I think I am starting to get a bit sleepy after all... | |
Cilan | !!! | |
Cress | It-it's spicy all of a sudden?! | |
Chili | S-SPICY!!! | |
Lana | Now, come over here. | |
Cilan | Phew... | |
Mallow | So, what do you think of the "Akala Trio Special"? We arranged it so when you start feeling sleepy from the spores, the spice from the Tamato Berry wakes you up! | |
Cilan | It...it was quite a thrilling dining experience... | |
Cress | I don't think anyone can copy this unconventional idea. | |
Chili | I think that comes from the quality of the ingredients—and by that, I mean you three! | |
