6★ EX
6★ EX[1] (Japanese: ★6EX) is the highest level of potential that a sync pair can achieve in Pokémon Masters EX. Introduced in version 2.0.0, raising a sync pair to 6★ EX will change the Trainer's pose in menus, upgrade their sync move, and unlock their EX style.
This feature was initially limited to 5★ sync pairs, but it has since been expanded to 3★ sync pairs such as Iris & Haxorus and 4★ sync pairs such as Thorton & Bronzong. In addition, certain sync pairs such as Bugsy & Scyther have the ability to be upgraded to 6★ EX without having an EX style. A sync pair that has the ability to be raised to 6★ EX can also be described as having 6★ EX unlocked.
Not all sync pairs are eligible to be raised to 6★ EX. A sync pair that does not have 6★ EX unlocked can still have their potential maxed through the use of 5★ Power-Ups, but their sync move cannot be upgraded. Starting from December 25, 2021, one sync pair has 6★ EX unlocked on each Pokémon Masters Day.
Mechanics
To perform the 6★ EX upgrade, the target sync pair must increase their potential using 5★ Power-Ups ×20. Players will then be able to use 50 Champion Spirits (or Legendary Spirits for Legendary Adventures sync pairs). For sync pairs who start at a potential below 5★, their potential must first be upgraded to 5★ through the use of 3★ and 4★ Power-Ups before they can use 5★ Power-Ups.
EX style
An EX style[2] (Japanese: EXカラー衣装 EX Color Costume) is a special recolored version of the Trainer's outfit, which is usually based on the color scheme of their partner Pokémon. Once an EX style has been unlocked, the trainer in that sync pair can freely switch between their standard outfit and the EX style.
Excluding the player character, a character's EX style is bound to the sync pair that unlocked it—for instance, unlocking the EX style for Blue & Pidgeot will not also unlock the EX style for Blue & Arcanine.
Starting from March 29, 2023, sync pairs who have the same outfit as their originally-released version gained the ability to be raised to 6★ EX without having an EX style. This includes some pairs obtained from Battle Point rewards, some pairs that are exclusively available in special sync pair events, some pairs that are exclusive to variety scouts, and all pairs obtained from Trainer Lodge rewards. The only sync pair with the same outfit as their originally-released version that has an EX style is Blue & Arcanine.
The player characters, Scottie and Bettie, handle EX style differently. If a sync pair involving Scottie or Bettie is raised to 6★ EX, then the unlocked EX style (which has a specific name) is added to the Clothes menu in Trainer Settings. Upon changing the player character's outfit in this menu, it will then change for all sync pairs formed by the player character, even if those pairs are not 6★ EX themselves. Scottie and Bettie's customizations also change how they appear in story scenes, outfit included, which is not possible for any other sync pair's EX style.
Pose
When a sync pair is raised to 6★ EX, their pose in menus will change, even if they do not receive an EX style. This pose usually resembles the trainer's pose in official core series artwork.
However, unlike EX styles, a sync pair's pose cannot be changed back to the standard version after undergoing the 6★ EX upgrade.
Scottie and Bettie do not receive a new pose when upgraded to 6★ EX.

Sync move effects
The sync move upgrade a sync pair receives upon reaching 6★ EX depends on the role of the sync pair:
- Strike : Sync move targets all opponents without its damage scaling down, even if multiple targets are present.
- Tech : Power of sync move increases by 50%.
- Support : The user's first sync move of each battle doubles the number of sync buffs granted to their team (from one to two). A sync move buff acts in stages, similar to a stat buff in the core series, with a +50% increase to overall damage per buff. Effectively, except in special circumstances, this boosts that team's damage from 1.5× after the first sync move to 2× instead.
- Sprint : The first time the user's sync move is used each battle, the sync move countdown is reduced by three.
- Field : Implements a specified field effect before the user's sync move is used the first time each battle. Extends the field effect duration only that time.
- Multi : Lowers the type rebuff of the sync pair's type for all opposing sync pairs by one rank the first time the user's sync move is used each battle.
If a sync pair is both raised to 6★ EX and has their EX role unlocked, then they will have two of the above effects: the ones corresponding to their original role and their EX role.
List of sync pairs with 6★ EX unlocked
Legendary Adventures sync pairs can only access 6★ EX by using Legendary Sprits (they cannot use Champion Spirits). These sync pairs are denoted with an asterisk (*).

Trivia
- In September 2020, a poll rally was held in which players could vote for which sync pair available through the main story would receive the ability to be raised to 6★ EX. When the results were revealed on October 30, 2020, it was announced that the three winners - Skyla, Barry, and Korrina - would have 6★ EX unlocked in the future.[3] The 6★ EX Skyla Sync Pair Support Rally was held in January 2021 to give players the materials to maximize Skyla & Swanna's potential.[4] Skyla and Korrina finally received the ability to be raised to 6★ EX on February 26, 2021, and Barry received it on March 29, 2021. However, the first sync pair featured in the poll to receive the ability to be raised to 6★ EX was the eighth-place sync pair, Iris & Haxorus.
