Solving Wonderful Mysteries (Japanese: 素敵な謎解きのために For a Wonderful Mystery Solving) was a costume event in Pokémon Masters EX, and a group of sub-stories of the costume event Curious Tea Party. It was focused on the sync pairs Lillie (Special Costume) & Polteageist, Sonia (Special Costume) & Tsareena, Ingo (Special Costume) & Accelgor, and Emmet (Special Costume) & Escavalier.

The "Super Spotlight Costume Scout" gave players an increased chance of recruiting Lillie (Special Costume) & Polteageist, Sonia (Special Costume) & Tsareena, Ingo (Special Costume) & Accelgor, and Emmet (Special Costume) & Escavalier for the duration of the event.

During this event, players could earn Event Vouchers I from battles that could be redeemed in the shop. All battles could be challenged an unlimited number of times except Daily Extreme Battle 1, which could only be challenged once per day. Extra vouchers were automatically exchanged with coins once the event was finished.

The player could battle using Lillie (Special Costume) & Polteageist, Sonia (Special Costume) & Tsareena, Ingo (Special Costume) & Accelgor, or Emmet (Special Costume) & Escavalier to obtain +0.6× bonus vouchers; Wallace & Milotic, Nessa & Drednaw, Darach & Staraptor, Piers & Obstagoon, or Marnie & Morpeko to obtain +0.4× bonus vouchers; and any unlisted sync pairs with the Unova, Alola, or Galar theme skills to obtain +0.2× bonus vouchers.

This event featured four special riddle missions. In certain story areas, a character presented another character with a riddle, which the player would have to answer. The player could give their answer by completing the corresponding "Solve [character]'s Riddle!" battle using sync pairs with specific theme skills. Answering the riddle correctly would unlock the storyline's final story area, in which the character gave the same answer.

This event was a combination of the sub-stories Lillie's Party Prep—An Eye for Beauty, Sonia's Party Prep—The Finest Tea, Ingo's Party Prep—Way of the Butler, and Emmet's Party Prep—Heart and Soul from the initial run of Curious Tea Party.

Lillie	Let's go to a tea party with Polteageist!
Lillie	Let's go to the tea party as soon as you're ready, <player>!
Sonia	I'll be waiting there for you. But remember—it's no ordinary tea party!
Lillie	No ordinary tea party? What do you mean?
Sonia	You'll find out when you get there! Ohohohohohoooh!

Pokémon Center (event conversation)

Name	Text
Ingo	We'll be the perfect hosts!
Ingo	Are you fully prepared for the tea party, <player>?
Emmet	As both your Subway Bosses and butlers, we'll be serving up quite the treat! You can look forward to safe driving and a thrilling event!
Ingo	Please allow plenty of time so you won't have to rush to your seat!

A Beauteaful Day for Shopping

Name	Text
When Lillie came to town to go shopping before the tea party, she ran into Wallace.
Wallace	Your Pokémon, Polteageist... How wonderful! And the antique pot it's living in is a rare masterpiece as well!
Lillie	Oh, do you know a lot about tea sets, Wallace?
Wallace	I wouldn't say a lot. But I believe I have an eye for beauty.
Lillie	Actually, we're going to buy a tea set right now. Do you know a good shop for that?
Wallace	I do indeed! I'll take you there. It seems beautiful things really do attract each other.
Lillie	Beautiful things... Do you mean Polteageist and you, Wallace?
Wallace	No, I mean the two of us and the two of you. Two beautiful sync pairs tied together by bonds of friendship!
Lillie	Oh, right! I'm definitely confident in the strength of my bond with Polteageist!
Wallace	chuckle Anyway, I'd like to ask your opinion about something on the way to the shop. I can't decide what I should wear to a contest I'll be making a guest appearance in soon. What is beauty? That's a mystery for the ages, but let's discuss it!

Fluttery Fashion

Name	Text
Lillie	Your costume for a contest?
Wallace	The point I'd most like to concentrate on is... Oh, I know! Let's discuss this like the upcoming tea party—in the form of a riddle!
Lillie	That sounds fun! I'll do my best to answer!
Wallace	Here's your question: What fashion item am I particularly picky about? For a hint, have a look at my partner Pokémon! Just like Milotic, it's long and flutters around the neck!
Lillie	Long like Milotic and flutters around the neck... Oh, I know!
Wallace	Then tell me your answer! What fashion item am I most picky about? Bring me at least one sync pair wearing that item, and tell me your answer!

How's My Outfit?

Name	Text
Lillie	The answer is "a scarf," right?
Wallace	That's right! "Scarf" is the correct answer! That elegant fashion item that flutters about the neck!
Lillie	Yes! I think scarves are beautiful and cool, just like Milotic!
Wallace	Oh, while we were chatting, we made it all the way to the shop.
Lillie	Thank you, Wallace! With your help, I was able to buy a really cute tea set!
Wallace	Not at all! Thanks to our chat, I've formed a better idea of what I'll wear to the contest.
Lillie	Oh, if you don’t mind...I'd like to ask you a question about fashion! The outfit I'm wearing now... Would it be better if I wore a scarf as well as the hat?
Wallace	When it comes to fashion, you can't always assume that more is better. I think your outfit suits you very well and goes perfectly with your partner Polteageist. In fact, I wouldn't change a thing! You look elegant—infuriatingly so! I'm sure you two will have a lovely time at the tea party.
Lillie	Yes! I'm planning to make it the most glorious tea party ever!

Something's Missing...

Name	Text
Before the tea party, Sonia invited Nessa to have a Pokémon battle.
Sonia	I was hoping a battle would be a nice distraction...
Nessa	You did seem pretty preoccupied by all the tea party preparation you've been doing.
Sonia	I've got the tea, treats, and puzzles all prepared, but... I'm just worried that I might be missing something.
Nessa	Let's put the battle aside for a moment and take a break.
Sonia	Good idea... Oh! I'll make us some tea! The three brothers from Striaton City in Unova taught me how to make the tastiest tea.
Nessa	Oh, now I'm really looking forward to it! So, if you're making the tea for us, I'll come up with a riddle! It might help you come up with more puzzle ideas for the tea party.
Sonia	Oh, sounds fun! I'm game!

The Three Necessiteas

Name	Text
Nessa	Then here's my riddle for you, Sonia! To make the finest tea, you need three things. And those are...?
Sonia	Huh? That's way too easy! I was just taught that, remember? They told me...
(Flashback)
Cilan	I, Cilan, select only the best tea leaves...
Cress	I, Cress, prepare the purest water...
Chili	And I, Chili, pour the water after heating it to just the perfect temperature!
Cilan	We believe that the tea we make this way is the best in all of Unova... No, in the whole world!
(End flashback)
Sonia	Tea leaves, water, and the perfect heat...
Nessa	You think you know the answer? Well then, let's hear it! To make the finest tea, you need three things, which correspond with certain "types." What are those three types? Make a team with them, and bring it to me as your answer!

The Fourth Ingredient

Name	Text
Sonia	The answer is Grass, Water, and Fire! Those three types, right?
Nessa	Correct! Well done, Sonia! I also get along well with Kabu and Milo. Maybe these three types just make a good combination?
Sonia	Hee hee, you might be on to something! OK, I've prepared the finest tea! Let's savor it together!
Nessa	Yes, please!
Nessa	This takes me back... Remember how you used to make curry when we were adventuring together back in the day? You never quite made it to Charizard class, but for some reason, I'll never forget that flavor. Do you think maybe there's actually a fourth thing you need to make the finest tea?
Sonia	Tea leaves, water, heat, and...one more?
Nessa	Yes! A dash of love! After all, you were thinking of me when you made me that curry, right? I think making tea involves more than skill, too. Maybe it's important to be thinking about the person you're making it for.
Sonia	Yes, that's exactly it! You've figured it out, Nessa! No matter how much I prepare, if I don't really put my heart into it, I can't possibly be a good hostess! Thanks for helping me realize that! That nagging feeling in my mind is finally gone! It really is great to have friends like you! Ohohoho!
Nessa	Yeah... But what's up with that laugh?
Sonia	I'm rehearsing so I can really get into my role! I've dressed up like a queen to go perfectly with Tsareena and really entertain everyone at the tea party!
Nessa	You do always put your all into everything you do, Sonia. Good luck with the party!

The Way of the Butler

Name	Text
Before the tea party, Ingo visited Darach to learn the way of the butler.
Darach	You want me to teach you the way of the butler?
Ingo	Yes, please! Through Evolution, my partner Accelgor has shed its shell and reached a new level of nimbleness. Through this tea party, I, too, want to reach a new destination. The frontier of the butler! My goal is to become a butler who can offer customers the ultimate service.
Darach	I see... I understand now. However, butlers and Subway Bosses are already similar jobs in that they both offer hospitality to others. I'm afraid I may have nothing to teach you... Oh, I know! Would you help me with my work, Ingo?

Pokémon Logistics

Name	Text
Ingo	Help you? With pleasure!
Darach	Thank you. The thing is, I've been asked to transport supplies for the tea party. Those supplies are to be collected on the opposite side of the island from the tea party venue. I need to decide which Pokémon would be best suited to carry a significant amount of heavy supplies. There are three means of transportation: land, sea, and air... Of the three, which do you think could most quickly and safely transport the supplies?
Ingo	Land... Sea... Air... Well...there aren't any trains on Pasio, so perhaps the sky would be better than land. But I don't think there are any Flying-type Pokémon strong enough to carry all the heavy supplies safely.
Darach	It sounds like you have your answer, so let me restate the question at hand. What kind of Pokémon would be best suited for quickly and safely transporting the supplies? Bring a team of three sync pairs that match the "type" of your answer!

Heart of Hospitalitea

Name	Text
Ingo	The answer is "Water-type"! To carry the supplies by sea!
Darach	You've figured out the safest and fastest method for your client. I'm impressed!
Ingo	Thank you for your kind words. It is an honor!
Darach	If you ever decide to start a dining car service, I'm sure this experience will come in handy.
???	I've been watching the two of you work from behind the scenes.
Erika	What a lovely job you've done! Perhaps you could also help me tend to my flowers?
Acerola	I'd like help taking care of the children, too!
Ingo	Please, my work is still far from perfect...
Darach	Ingo, you originally served as a Subway Boss. You know from experience how to treat customers properly. You already possess the most important attribute of a butler: a heart filled with hospitality.
Ingo	Such words of encouragement! Perhaps you, Emmet, and myself... could create a team of butlers!

How to Butler...

Name	Text
Before the tea party, Emmet was walking around and saw Piers, who was in the middle of a performance.
Emmet	What a great song! There's no Battle Subway on Pasio, so I can't serve as a Subway Boss. Besides riddles, tea, and sweets, what can I offer as a butler? I know! I can entertain with a song!
Marnie	If you wanna entertain through song, maybe my big brother can help.
Piers	Marnie told me everything. I'm glad you were moved by my song, but... I'm sure there are other ways to apply yourself that're more suitable for a butler.
Emmet	Then...how can I be more like a butler?
Marnie	I'm not sure, since we haven't got any butlers back in Spikemuth.
Piers	We did, however, have a lot of freedom. That's why I was able to sing. If you stay true to yourself, people will follow your lead. But if you're still unsure of yourself... You blow those worries away with a Pokémon battle!

Express Yourself

Name	Text
Emmet	I still don't know what I should do to serve as a butler!
Piers	When working on trains and music, overthinking can throw everything off track... It's important to keep others in mind, but don't forget about your own feelings!
Emmet	My own feelings?
Marnie	I'm not sure if this is a useful "hint," but my big brother "expresses" himself through song. For both Subway Bosses and butlers, I think it's important to not ignore your heart.
Emmet	Be mindful of my own heart...and not just others!
Piers	Right, then. Here's a question from me in the form of a tea-party riddle! Aside from being helpful to your customers, what's another thing you can be that'll show them your creative side? Bring at least one sync pair who you think matches the answer!

Butler-Subway-Boss Extraordinaire!

Name	Text
Emmet	The answer is "artistic." I should express what's in my heart!
Piers	What a great battle. I can see that my soul has reached you now.
Emmet	Yes, thank you! I think I've realized something important! The reason your song moved me was because I could feel your heart and soul in it. If I can express my joy, my customers can enjoy it as well. I want to entertain, and the customers want to be entertained. Both are valid feelings. I'll wear my heart on my sleeve and make this the best tea party yet!
Piers	That's the spirit. I can see the conviction in your face. I've got nothing against tea parties. Marnie an' I will stop by for some tea.
Marnie	Uh...I already promised Gloria and the others I would go with them... Fine. Do you want to come with us, Big Bro?
Emmet	I'll be waiting to serve you, with my heart on my sleeve! Because I am Emmet! Butler-Subway-Boss extraordinaire!
