In the forthcoming Pokemon Masters mobile game, the central gameplay gimmick is the collection of trainers for 3v3 battles. Pokemon Masters will feature all past trainers, offering players several ways to put together teams for interesting battles, and a number of Sync Pairs have been revealed since the game was announced. Sync Pairs is the official term for trainer and partner Pokemon duos in the game, but how players unlock new Sync pairs has yet to be announced.

Furthermore, it's worth mentioning that every Sync Pair has a special move, though not many have been revealed. Pokemon Masters will likely showcase more special moves in the days prior to its release as well as more Sync Pairs.

Most of the Sync Pairs require little guesswork, as the trainer is often paired with its most iconic Pokemon. Cynthia's partner Pokemon is Garchomp, for example, and Steven Stone's is Metagross. Others are slightly less iconic, as is the case with Blue's partner Pokemon in Pokemon Masters. Here are all the Trainer and partner Pokemon pairs that are currently known to be available in the mobile game.

More and more Sync Pairs will likely be revealed prior to the official launch of Pokemon Masters, and we'll be sure to update this article with any and all new Sync Pairs as they become available.

It remains to be seen how popular Pokemon Masters will be when it launches, especially when compared to the success of Pokemon GO. Hopefully though, this proves to be another major Pokemon mobile game.

Pokemon Masters will launch this summer for Android and iOS mobile devices.
