Move: Special Boost ↑2 (Skill)

Move: Special Boost ↑2 (Japanese: 技後特殊ブースト２付与 Special Boost 2 After Move) is a family of skills in Pokémon Masters EX.

Effect

When the sync pair successfully uses a move, the user has a chance of increasing its Special Moves ↑ Next effect by two ranks. The skill can range from Move: Special Boost ↑2 1 to Move: Special Boost ↑2 9, with higher numbered skills resulting in a greater chance of activation. Move: Special Boost ↑2 9 will always raise the user's Special Moves ↑ Next effect by two ranks. Currently, only Move: Special Boost ↑2 9 is available on scoutable sync pairs. The skill applies to both the Trainer's and the Pokémon's moves, including buddy moves, but not sync moves or max moves.
