Effect

When the sync pair successfully uses a move, the user has a chance of increasing it and its allies' Special Moves ↑ Next effect by one rank. The skill can range from Team Brain Gain 1 to Team Brain Gain 9, with higher numbered skills resulting in a greater chance of activation. Team Brain Gain 9 will always raise the user and its allies' Special Moves ↑ Next effect. Currently, only Team Brain Gain 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.
