The event will see various Alolan Trial captains creating new and improved versions of Alola’s Akala Island trials. For players who rememberPokemonSunandMoon,Akala Island features three separate trials which culminate in a Kahuna battle with Rock-type specialist Olivia.Pokemon Masters EX’s “Trials on the Isle” event will involve those three Akala Island captains: Lana, Mallow, and Kiawe. During the event, players can take part in two new Scouts which will focus on either Elio and Popplio or Selene and Rowlet.
Though the two new Sync Pairs haven’t been officially detailed as of this writing,Pokemonnews website Serebii.net has provided detailed explanations of both Sync Pairs. Elio and Popplio will act as a support pair, with Popplio having access to Water Gun, X Sp. Def All, Sing, and ‘We’ve Got Tricks!’ The pairs' Sync Move is Water Sync Beam, which maxes out at about 200 damage.
Selene and Rowlet will act as a strike pair, with Rowlet knowing Tackle, X Attack, Leaf Blade, and ‘Stare ‘Em Down!’ Their Sync Move is Grass Sync Impact, which also does about 200 damage. Hopefully, players have good luck recruiting both Elio and Selene during this upcoming event.
