Poké Assist

Poké Assist is a feature in the games Pokémon Ranger, Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia, and Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs.

They are abilities that, when used, give the Capture Styler extra power from a Pokémon. They may cause things like an increase in power or a special effect to happen. This feature is not available in the School Stylers.

In Locus of Light, the Pokémon using the assist appears on the field and is susceptible to the attacks of the Pokémon being captured. When injured too much, the Pokémon will stop assisting and flee, and the player will be unable to assist with that certain Pokémon. It is unknown if the assists have time limits.
