Reason: Plot for Interlude 4 onwards

The Main Story of Pokémon Masters EX consists of multiple chapters, with the next chapter unlocked once the previous one is completed. Battles in the Main Story are available in Normal and Hard difficulties, with the Hard mode unlocked after completing Chapter 4 of the Main Story. Hard difficulty battles were introduced in Version 1.8.0 and are only available for select battles. All Normal difficulty battles provide 30 Gems as a First-Time Reward, while Hard difficulty battles reward the player with 100 Gems upon defeating the stage for the first time.

Co-op mode is also available after the player has completed Interlude 1.

The game starts with Blue introducing the player, a new Trainer in Pasio, to the Pokémon Masters League, or PML for short. The player registers for the PML at the Pokémon Center, and Trista introduces the player to Brock and Misty who are looking for a Trainer to join their team for the PML.

From version 1.13.0, the Main Story was separated into two arks, PML Arc with thirty chapters (also seven interludes), and Villain Arc, which is focused on different villainous teams from core series games. Starting from 2.15.0 update, a new arc called Legendary Adventures was added. The story and sync pairs with Legendary Pokémon are from the legendary events.

The script for the PML Arc can be found here and the script for the Villain Arc can be found here.

PML Arc

Chapter 1: New Adventure, New Goal

Brock, Misty and the player head to Centra City to find Trainers to join their PML team. After hearing some commotion, Brock spots Rosa and Cynthia. Rosa defends Cynthia who is not willing to battle a Punk Girl and Street Thug as she would like her Pokémon to rest. Brock and Misty try to cut the argument and end up battling them.

Brock introduces the player to Rosa. Cynthia greets them and thanks them for their help. She remarks that she senses a great deal of potential in the player and then leaves.

The player battles Rosa to convince her to join their PML team. After they win, Rosa decides to join the team. She wants to introduce the team to Barry.

Chapter 2: New Friends, New Foes

The team head to the beach to find Barry. On the way, they battle Team Break who attempt to steal their partner Pokémon.

Barry then comes and mistakes them for Team Break and the player ends up battling Barry. After the battle, Barry finally recognizes Rosa and then apologizes for his mistake. The player decides to help Barry out who agrees to join after Team Break is defeated.

At a nearby cave hideout, they find and battle more Team Break thugs. They soon discover Paulo who has also come to defeat Team Break. After defeating more groups of Team Break, Barry asks Paulo to join their PML team. Paulo declines the offer as he plans to form his own team. He informs them that the volcano area is a popular location for Trainers and might be a good place to recruit more Trainers.

The player then enters the Pokémon Center and runs into Lear who insults the player as being an eyesore for his shoddy hat. Lear introduces himself and declares he will be the PML champion.

Chapter 3: Rise Beyond the Flames

The team arrive at a volcano and meet Flannery and Blaine who are in the midst of training. Blaine requests the player to battle their way up the volcano to find and battle Flannery at the peak.

After several battles, Blaine meets the player and explains that he asked them of this favor so that Flannery could learn to depend on others through team battles.

At the summit, the player battles Flannery and wins. Blaine remarks that although Flannery is a powerful Trainer, she has tunnel vision due to her status as a Gym Leader and that she needs friends she can trust. Blaine then challenges Flannery to join the player's team and participate in the PML, and Flannery accepts. To her surprise, Blaine states he will be making his own PML team.

The team head off to find Erika to earn their first Badge.

They find Erika dozing in the deep parts of the forest. They battle to earn the Tranquility Badge. Despite being a PML Leader, Erika joins the player's team, stating that Leaders are free to participate in any way they like and that there are other Leaders in charge of giving out the same Badge.

Chapter 5: The High-Flying Girl

The team head to a mountain to find Skyla. Once they locate Skyla, they find that Lear has beaten Skyla to earn a Badge. Lear ridicules Skyla for commending her Pokémon despite the loss and remarks that battles are all about winning and not about having fun.

Lear is exasperated to find out that the player is entering the PML. He uses his Krookodile for a one-on-one battle against the player and wins.

After Lear leaves, the player has a quick break before battling Skyla. After winning, Skyla hands over the Freedom Badge and decides to join the player's team.

Chapter 7: Bravery is Half the Victory

Brendan wants to introduce the team to his father, Norman, who is camped out in the mountains. On the way, they battle Team Break who again try to steal their Pokémon.

At the summit, they find Paulo who has just lost to Norman. The team meet Norman and win a battle against him. Paulo is frustrated that he is falling behind, although Norman disagrees stating that Paulo has true skills and pushed him during the battle.

Norman is about to give the player the badge when they spot Team Break making a commotion outside a cave. They decide to go and stop them.

As they enter the cave, Team Break blocks off the entrance and leaves. Norman and the player's team find another way out and battle multiple groups of Team Break on the way.

As they exit, Team Break reappears and explains their intention was to get rid of Norman as he would be a barrier to their plans in sabotaging the PML.

After defeating Team Break one more time, Norman gives the player the Patience Badge and also hands one to Paulo as he showed mental aptitude in face of fearsome opposition. Norman decides to join the player's team.

Chapter 8: A Cold, Harsh Winter

At a glacier, the team meet Pryce, a PML Leader. Barry and Flannery bicker about who should battle.

Despite their win against Pryce, Pryce refuses to hand over the Badge as the team is missing something. Norman agrees and asks the team to think of the answer before battling Pryce again.

After some thinking, Barry apologizes to Flannery for rushing for no reason and for thinking he could do it all himself. Flannery also apologizes for panicking as she was trying to live up to her title as Gym Leader. The two realize they were out of sync during the battle and decide to work together.

They battle Pryce and this time he is pleased at their teamwork. He hands them the Harmony Badge and decides to join the team.

At Centra City, Rosa introduces Iris to the team. They spot Team Break who are claiming the city as theirs. The player's team fight the Team Break members away.

Lear comes after hearing news of Team Break and is disappointed to find that it was only a bunch of amateurs fighting against them. After Lear insults the player as being pathetic, Iris defends the player. Iris and Lear eventually battle. Despite the support of Rachel and Sawyer, Lear states they are mere retainers, not friends. While the battle is neck and neck, Lear leaves without finishing the battle.

Iris then battles the player to try out the new three-on-three battle system, and ends up joining the team afterwards.

Chapter 10: A Matter of Pride

The team set off to earn their last badge. They meet Hapu and Paulo who has just lost a battle to Hapu. Hapu reassures Paulo that he has real strength but that he needs more self-confidence.

The team ask Hapu for a battle, but Hapu declines, stating that her Pokémon is tired from the previous battle.

Team Break appear and claim that more associates are on the way. Paulo runs ahead to scope out the area and the player chases after him. They eventually find Paulo who has lost another battle to Team Break. After the player's team defeats Team Break, Hapu admonishes Paulo for rashly running ahead on his own, however, commends the player for defending Paulo when his pride was insulted.

The team rests while Hapu heads off to prepare for the battle. Paulo leaves and ruminates about Hapu's suggestion of self-confidence.

The team meets up with Hapu who hands them the Pride Badge before the battle even begins, remarking that she has seen enough to know the player is worthy of the Badge. After the battle, Hapu decides to join the team.

Brock states that the player reminds him of Red and Blue and then heads off on his own to clear his mind.

Chapter 18: Team Unova

Cheren and Hilbert reflect that despite their strong team they will now face Champion level trainers in the tournament. Cheren remarks that they need to battle while helping each other. Hilbert laughs and comments that Cheren has grown much since the start of his journey around Unova. Hilbert asks if Hilda could join their team as they have all had similar journeys across Unova which might help them get in sync as a team.

After the battle with the player, Cheren thanks the player for battle. Both Hilbert and Hilda realize that Cheren wants to join the player's team, and Cheren eventually joins the player's team.

Interlude 2: A Stubborn Obstacle

With the fist half of the tournament over, Misty and Brock are confident of winning. Lear interjects and states that they have been lucky so far. He cannot understand how working in a team can lead them to victory and remarks that the only way to true strength is to train hard by yourself without relying on others. Lear then challenges them to a battle. If they refuse or lose he will revoke their right to compete in the tournament.

Chapter 19: Rematch vs. Lear!

Lear, Sawyer and Rachel come to battle the player. Lear will battle with Staraptor and has replaced his Krookodile as it was too weak to defeat Iris's Haxorus.

After Lear loses the battle, he remains in denial that he is stronger and reflects that this is his second loss (the first being his defeat to Red). Brock agrees that Lear is strong but that the player has capacity to have fun in battle, have real friendship and have a real bond with Pokémon. Cheren notices that Lear is unable to use sync moves as he has no bond with his Pokémon.

Rachel and Sawyer continue to support Lear as he is strong enough to win without sync moves. Lear states that he founded the PML to prove that the power of one man is stronger than bond. However, Lear seems to have his mind on something and the three leave to give him space.

Sawyer reassures Lear that the king promised to name him the heir to the throne if the PML was a success. At that moment, Sawyer receives a phone call alerting him that some thieves have entered the royal manor and stolen "it".

Chapter 20: Shifting Shadows

As people await the PML finals, the player has become recognizable in Centra City. Calem also recognizes the player as Cynthia has told him much about the player and asks for a battle.

After the battle, Calem informs the player that Team Break have been stealing Pokémon again. He had planned to infiltrate their hideout when Cynthia recommended to ask the player for assistance.

They head to Team Break's hideout and battle groups of Team Break. The player eventually catches up with Calem who again runs ahead on his own. Misty is concerned Team Break appear to be getting stronger.

Once they find Calem again, the player helps Calem defeat Team Break. Team Break state that they can now call up strong Pokémon to battle whenever they want. After defeating the thugs, Team Break remark that the player has fallen into their trap. However, when the Masked Man gives a signal, no Team Break members come. Cynthia walks in and says she has apprehended all the other members. Calem then decides to join the team.

The chapter ends with the player helping out Rising Star Stella in finding her Torchic. Along the way, Stella gains confidence in battling, and eventually asks the player to raise a second Torchic that she has on hand.

Chapter 21: Face the Fight!

The player's team has made it to the opening ceremony just in time. Before the ceremony, they notice that Paulo has also made it to the finals.

Sawyer runs the opening ceremony to the PML finals. Brock and Rosa wonder why Lear is not present but decide to focus on their first opponent.

The chapter showcases how Marshal initially formed the PML team. He had come to Pasio to take martial arts to new heights but was disappointed that nothing had changed. He recognized Bruno's voice from afar and joined Bruno in training. Brawly then walked in after a surf and noticed that while their upper body muscles were refined, Marshal and Bruno could train their lower body more. Brawly recommended surfing, although Bruno thought surfing was too extreme. However, Marshal had a new idea and decided to form a team for the PML.

At the PML tournament, the player defeats the martial arts team in battle. Brock and Rosa are surprised to have been matched up with them so early in the tournament. When the next opponents are announced, they are all shocked by who they are up against.

Interlude 3: The Truth about Pasio

Rachel finds the Team Break hideout empty as it was previously cleared by Cynthia. Lear is mad that they haven't found "it" yet and had ditched the opening ceremony to find his "secret friend".

An eavesdropping Cheren is noticed by them and admits that he followed Sawyer once he realized Lear wasn't at the opening ceremony. Cheren states the rumours that some Trainers have been transported to Pasio by a mysterious ring, him being one of them. Lear admits that he has been using Hoopa to bring sync pairs but defends himself saying that Hoopa was willing to help after some donuts and that Trainers were sent back if they were not willing to stay. Cheren realizes that Lear will need help if Team Break now have Hoopa, but Lear is adamant that he can handle it alone.

Chapter 22: Rival Face-Off!

The chapter recaps Paulo losing to two Masked Men. The Masked Men try to force Paulo to hand over his Pokémon, but Wulfric and Wikstrom step in and defeat Team Break. Recognizing them, Paulo expresses his gratitude and reminisces on how weak he is. Paulo then asks the two to join his PML team.

At the tournament, Paulo reflects on how much he has grown with the help of Wikstrom and Wulfric and aims to surpass the player.

After the battle, Paulo is surprised at the loss. With the support of Wikstrom and Wulfric, Paulo eventually manages a smile and walks away. Outside, Paulo thanks Wikstrom and Wulfric for having joined his team. The two comment on how much stronger and confident Paulo has become and then part ways. After they leave, Paulo still tries to understand how he lost and reflects on what it would take to beat player before walking off into a cave.

Chapter 23: Hearts Connected by Fashion

Koga and Clair are downcast as a kid had commented on their weird fashion. Valerie walks by and recognizes Erika. Valerie, a fashion designer, comments on how Koga and Clair's fashion pair well with their partner Pokémon. For all her compliments, Clair offers to help Valerie in any way. Valerie reveals that she wants to become a Pokémon. When Koga explains that she cannot become a Pokémon using a sync stone, Valerie then asks the team to help her find someone she would like to meet.

At that moment, fans of Elesa come and challenge Valerie to a battle in order to force her to make an outfit for Elesa. After the battle, Valerie and the player's team go and find Elesa.

In the forest, they find Elesa battling Leaf. After the battle, Elesa recognizes Valerie and asks of one request from her.

Leaf, having heard of Valerie's wish to become a Pokémon, asks the player to battle Valerie. After the battle, Valerie is surprised at how she felt one with her Sylveon when using a sync move. This makes her interested in battles in Pasio and asks Elesa for a battle. Elesa agrees and then asks Valerie to join the player's team as they will be their third round opponents.

Interlude 7: Shining Bonds

Lear remains captured by Team Break alongside Hoopa and begins to reminisce about the times he had spent with the Mischief Pokémon. Team Break then arrive unannounced, and disclose to Lear that they plan on using their captured Pokémon to take over the PML—unless Lear announces that he will cancel the PML instead. Lear is resigned to the PML being over, however Hoopa protests against this and musters its remaining strength to teleport Lear away.

Outside, Lear meets Sawyer, Rachel, and Cheren who help remind Lear of the good times that he had had with Hoopa, and what it makes to be a good king; caring for his kingdom rather than focusing on strength. Reinvigorated, Lear heads back to Team Break's hideout, where Lear, Sawyer, and Rachel team up to defeat Team Break. Team Break's leader arrives to provide reinforcement, but with Lear providing the necessary distraction, Cheren's Stoutland successfully takes Hoopa off Team Break's hands. Lear's sync stone then begins to glow, which had not glowed ever since the first time he had met Hoopa. Lear then teams up with Hoopa as a sync pair to defeat the remainder of the Team Break grunts. Cynthia, who had been enlisted by Cheren, then arrives and reveals that she has already defeated the other Team Break members who had been present at the hideout.

Later, Lear ponders about the values of friendship, trust, and bond, and thanks Sawyer and Rachel for helping him to grow. Cynthia arrives alongside two Pokémon Trainers who had been Lear's teammates in the PML. Cynthia reveals that these Trainers had not just assisted her in defeating Team Break, but had also won Lear's PML semi-final match despite his absence, advancing their team to the next round.

Sinnoh: Dreaming in Darkness

Cyrus wakes up in the never-ending darkness with Darkrai surrounding him. Team Galactic Grunts and Commanders are wondering what Darkrai done with Cyrus, however he woke up. He said to Darkrai he will never succumb to its nightmares and gains its power. Saturn ask Cyrus what would he like to do next, he said that he will learn about sync stones and Sygna Suits by certain sync pairs. He also want to live in the never-ending darkness after seeing Darkrai's dream.

At the laboratory, Professor Bellis informs that the International Police have started their investigation on Pasio and Team Rocket isn't the only group active with Team Galactic on the move, too. Barry left to stop Team Galactic, and Lucas and Dawn are going to inform Cynthia about it. The player, Lillie, and Paulo will stay at the Bellis lab.

At the ruins, Cynthia asks Giratina if it find anything that interested it. Lucas and Dawn arrived to Cynthia and ask her that she is checking out the ruins again and Giratina also interested on them. Cynthia says that the Legendary Pokémon seem to have appearing here and she is curious about the authenticity of ruins and what kind of history they have. She says that Giratina interested in the traces of other Pokémon that came here. Dialga appears out of nowhere. Cynthia says that Cyrus may have it as well, since he also has Palkia. Dialga disappeared. Lucas wonder if it was trying to tell something. Cynthia don't think it was Cyrus's, but Lucas and Dawn are not sure about that. Dawn reports that Team Galactic is resuming its operations on Pasio and asks Cynthia to help stop them, she agrees to. A mysterious man spots the cave and enters the Team Galactic hideout disguised as Grunt with Croagunk.

At the Centra City, Trainers are asleep with Brock and Erika have arrived wearing their Sygna Suits. They tried to stop Team Galactic plans. Commanders challenge Brock and Erika and they lost. Barry arrives and also want to stop the organization and they left. Brock and Erika sees Hiker mumbling something about the dark. Later he wakes up and says he didn't remember anything, however he was dreaming and walking in the never-ending darkness. Brock report about the mysterious phenomenon to Cynthia. Seems Cyrus using Darkrai to make everyone have these nightmares. Professor Bellis reported that International Police found Team Galactic's hideout and Barry on his way there, too. Near the hideout, Cynthia, Lucas and Dawn meet Barry. Cynthia suggests that the team should split out with her being alone. That means Lucas, Dawn, and Barry will go as a group.

Inside the hideout, the team battling against three Grunts. The other Grunt, which is mystery man that was with Croagunk, commands it to stop the other Grunt's Pokémon. Later, these Pokémon has fainted and the Grunts retreated. The mystery man who was actually Looker, removes his Grunt disguise and introduced himself. He was sent to International Police to investigate Pasio. Looker left and he disguises as Grunt again. Cynthia alone met with commanders, challenges their Pokémon with Giratina and wins. She warns the commanders about consequences what Cyrus will do. Saturn say that he is seeking more power to create a brand-new universe.

Lucas, Dawn, and Barry met with Cyrus, who now have both Dialga and Palkia and command to get them. Dialga disobey Cyrus. Palkia attacks it, and Lucas wants him to stop this. Cyrus say he wants to create a world that got rid of incomplete spirit and where feelings no longer exist with all human spirit must be erased, with his conversation was heard at the lab. At hideout, Cynthia left the commanders, as they are questioning him. Cyrus become victorious on the team's Pokémon. Lucas's sync stone is reacting what Dialga has been waiting for this and he forms the sync pair with it. Lucas and Dialga use their sync move against Cyrus's Palkia and defeated Cyrus. After the battle, Cyrus with Darkrai were vanished. Looker inform team that Grunts were asleep due to Darkrai powers.

A few days later, at the lab, the team discuss that Cyrus's plans has been putting into action and all sync pairs all over Pasio are falling asleep, having terrible nightmares and no waking up. Looker mentions that the affected sync pairs are getting treated at the Pokémon Center. Dawn arrives and she informed that she was able to wake up all affected sync pairs with Cresselia's power.

Cyrus in his sygna suit appears inside the Darkrai's Dark Void and claim that it is the ideal world he seek.

At the Bellis Lab, Dawn dresses herself in sygna suit to match Cresselia's colors. Professors Sycamore and Bellis arrive to the lab and report that Darkrai's nightmare is taken over with Sycamore falls asleep because of it.

Cynthia and company arrive to Centra City to see the sync pairs fall asleep. They thought that Darkrai's power overpowering Cresselia's. They later returned to the lab, because they can also be asleep. The commanders arrive to the lab to help the company finding Cyrus.

They found the asleep grunt, which actually is disguised Looker. He found the whereabouts of Cyrus. The group arrive to the cave and see Darkrai. They entered the Dark Void, with Dawn's Cresselia using power to wake up Cyrus from nightmare. They battled him and won. After that, they told Cyrus about how important feelings and bonds are. Cyrus managed to understand it and leaves with his commanders. Meanwhile, Giovanni appears at the scene after Cyrus leave and calls his loyal subordinates to preparing Team Rocket's Revival. At the lab, the group hope Cyrus will change.
