Focus Group (Japanese: P技後急所率アップG Group Critical Hit Rate Boost After Pokémon Uses Move) is a family of skills in Pokémon Masters EX.

Effect

When the sync pair's Pokémon successfully uses a move, it has a chance to raise the user and its allies' critical-hit rate by one. The skill can range from Focus Group 1 to Focus Group 9, with higher numbered skills resulting in a higher chance of activation. Focus Group 9 will always raise the user and its allies' critical-hit rate by one. The skill applies to all of the Pokémon's moves—including attack moves, status moves, and buddy moves—but not sync moves or max moves.
