Rewards from Pokémon Masters EX Event Featuring Legendary Pokémon Kyogre and Groudon to be Based on Decisions by the Player Community

TOKYO—May 14, 2021—DeNA Co., Ltd., in partnership with The Pokémon Company, has announced Special Event Phase 2: Land and Sea Awaken, an in-game event in Pokémon Masters EX where the collective decisions of the player community will dictate the amount of rewards that will be distributed.

In this event, players will earn and use weather survey tickets to battle against Legendary Pokémon Kyogre or Groudon, both of whom are causing abnormal weather conditions on the island of Pasio. There will be several rewards for players to look forward to:

• Players who complete battles in this event will earn rewards that can be exchanged for items like 5★ Power-Ups and co-op sync orbs.
• A bonus reward of Gems, 5★ Power-Ups, and Move Candies will be distributed at a later date, with the amount of rewards dependent on the total number of battles that the player community completes during this event.
• Players will also earn either a Team Magma or Team Aqua in-game badge depending on if the player community defeats Groudon or Kyogre more times.

Special Event Phase 2: Land and Sea Awaken is a continuation of the Special Event Phase 1: Weather Alert event, and will be available from May 16 at 11:00 p.m. Pacific Time to May 27 at 10:59 p.m. Pacific Time. Players that log-in once during the event period will be eligible to receive the bonus rewards and the Team Magma or Team Aqua badge.

In addition to this upcoming update, DeNA also announced that the following content updates are now available:

• Nessa & Drednaw, Bea & Sirfetch’d Now Available: Galar sync pairs Nessa & Drednaw and Bea & Sirfetch’d are now available to add to players’ teams. Nessa & Drednaw are a Water-type sync pair that can deploy moves like Wash ‘Em Away!, which raises Attack and critical-hit rate, as well as Speed when it is raining on the battlefield.
