The fourth Pokémon Mezastar set was released on April 22, 2021 and consists of 70 tags.
Information
The fourth set marks the Pokémon Mezastar debut of the Gigantic Pokémon Eternatus and the High King Pokémon Calyrex, appearing in both its Ice Rider and Shadow Rider forms. Both Pokémon are featured as Grade 6 Superstar Pokémon; Eternatus also has two tags with different artwork and moves. Other Superstar Pokémon include Pokémon X and Y mascots Xerneas and Yveltal, the Renegade Pokémon Giratina, the Bulk Up Pokémon Grimmsnarl, the Stealth Pokémon Dragapult, and the Wolf Pokémon Lycanroc. Grimmsnarl supports the Dynamax mechanic, as do Grade 5 Star Pokémon Tyranitar and Metagross. Lycanroc can use a Z-Move, as can the final evolutions of the Kanto starter Pokémon: Venusaur, Charizard, and Blastoise. Star Pokémon Lucario and Gardevoir also support the Mega Evolution mechanic. The set also features the Mythical Pokémon Marshadow, several other Generation VII lines, as well as the final Eeveelution as of eighth generation, Sylveon.
Members of the Mezastar Club could access new features with the launch of this set, including the ability to customize their avatar with Change of Clothing Items (Japanese: きせかえアイテム) and use Battle Tickets (Japanese: バトルチケット) to challenge Trainer and Battle opponents again at will. Five new Trainers could be challenged during gameplay and defeating them all would unlock their Battle Tickets on the Mezastar Club. The tickets would also become available to members a certain period of time after the set's launch, regardless if they had yet to defeat all five opponents. Mezastar Club members could also receive a Flygon digital Support Pokémon Ticket for the duration of this set.
Battle Tickets display the name of a Trainer, the player's highest score against them, the overall rank of that score, and a QR Code for use with the console Multi-Scanner. The tickets also track any Change of Clothing Items a player can earn from them. One item, typically clothing matching the opponent's attire, can be unlocked for defeating them once, while challenge items can be unlocked by completing a set of three challenges during battles. These items could be differently-colored versions of the regular clothing, or new items entirely. Players can update the appearance of their avatar through the Mezastar Club, which will subsequently update on any machines after scanning their Memory tag. Limited Change of Clothing Items and Battle Tickets were also periodically available from the Mezastar Club: school-themed clothing could be redeemed for the duration of the set and a Battle Ticket that allowed players to challenge Mezastar Navigator Sakura could be redeemed between May 7 and September 15, 2021.
Much like the fourth Pokémon Ga-Olé set, the Trade Chance! (Japanese: こうかんチャンス!) feature was added with the launch of this set, which has a chance to trigger during the Get Time! or Last!! Get Time! phases. An icon will appear on the "throw a ball" option if the player can activate Trade Chance! If selected, an older version of one of the player avatars will appear after a Pokémon has been caught and present the player with a random Pokémon to trade. The player can select either the offered Pokémon or the one captured originally using the "L" and "R" buttons.
Three new Partner Pokémon were available to players with Memory tags from this set: Gastly, Beldum, and Impidimp. More Support Pokémon could also be added to the player's starting roster with the release of physical Support Pokémon Tickets in Shogakukan publications.
