Propulsion (Japanese: 技後BC加速 Buddy Countdown Acceleration After Move) is a family of skills in Pokémon Masters EX.

Effect

When the sync pair successfully uses a move, the user's sync move countdown has a chance of being lowered by one. The skill can range from Propulsion 1 to Propulsion 9, with higher numbered skills resulting in a higher chance of reducing the sync move countdown. Propulsion 9 will always lower the sync move countdown. The skill applies to both the Trainer's and the Pokémon's moves, including buddy moves, but not sync moves or max moves.
