Pokemon Masters' latest Sync Pair to arrive on Pasio is Fantina & Mismagius

A new Sync Pair has arrived into the world of Pokemon Masters today, closely following Sabrina & Alakazam's arrival earlier in the week. The latest pair to arrive on Pasio is Fantina & Mismagius, which is great for me personally as Mismagius is one of my favourite Pokemon.

Fantina first appeared in Pokemon Diamond and Pearl as the gym leader of Hearthome Gym. As you'll know from her partner being Mismagius, she specialises in Ghost-type Pokemon, which automatically makes her an excellent character.

The duo is a 5-star Sync Pair with Mismagius taking on the role of a special striker with access to some powerful self-buffs. She'll be able to use X Sp. Atk to increase her special attack whilst she'll be able to raise her critical chance and restore the move gauge by three by activating the ability Dance With Me!

She'll also have two passives called Backfire 2 and Bulk Buster 4. The latter sounds pretty handy, making her moves power up further the more HP the target has. However, Backfire 2 is an odd one, lowering the Attack and Sp. Atk of all opponents before Mismagius faints. I feel like this would only be useful in a few, niche situations but time will tell once people have used the Magical Pokemon for a while.

As is always the case with new Sync Pairs, there will be a Spotlight Scout for Fantina & Mismagius where you'll have an increased chance of netting the duo. This will run until 4th April. Meanwhile, it's important to note you won't be able to pull Sabrina & Alakazam from this Spotlight Scout as they currently have their own.

If you do manage to get Fantina & Mismagius before 30th March you'll also be able to make use of the recently released Ghost-Type Training Event to get bonus experience points for them. It'll save you having to use your level-up manuals or grinding for even longer. So long as you have the right training items to unlock her level cap, of course.

Pokemon Masters is available now over on the App Store and Google Play. It's a free-to-play game with in-app purchases.
