You can view the basic rules for the Champion Stadium in How to play the Champion Stadium.

Strategy: Training Sync Pairs

Level up Your Sync Pairs!

Raise the level of your sync pairs to the recommended level for the battle.
To level up beyond Lv. 100, use the Unlock Level Cap menu.
To obtain the items required, head to the Cap-Unlock Area in the Training Area.

Use the Sync Grid Effectively!

Power up your sync pairs even further via their sync grids. Simply use the Co-op Sync Orbs available in the Sync Orb Area of the Training Area.
There are various ways to upgrade your sync pairs, so choose whatever suits you.

Strategy: Forming Your Team

Unleash Theme Skills!

Create teams with sync pairs that share the same themes and target your opponents’ weaknesses.
Use Theme Skills to make your sync pairs even stronger.

Master Tactics!

Switching tactics changes the order your team members are targeted.
A key strategy is to have support sync pairs with higher HP, Defense, or Sp. Def targeted first, and strike sync pairs with higher Attack or Sp. Atk targeted third.

Strategy: Battle Basics

Defeat Opponents in the Center Last!

If you defeat an Elite Four or Champion sync pair in the center position first, the Pokémon on the left and right will unleash powerful moves.
So try to defeat the sync pair in the center position last.
Tap an opponent’s Pokémon during battle to switch between targets.

Strategy: Battle Tips

Recommended Fighting Style

• Prepare yourself for your opponent’s Rain!
• Inflict the Trapped condition on your opponent!
• Brace yourself for incoming physical attacks!

Recommended Sync Pairs and Tactics

• #1: Falkner & Swellow
• #2: Raihan (Anniversary 2022) & Flygon
• #3: Lance & Dragonite

Your opponent will use Rain Dance right before they use their Sync Move or use the Downpour Passive Skill in order to make the weather rainy, so use Raihan (Anniversary 2022) & Flygon’s Sandstorm to cause a sandstorm!

Drake & Kingdra use Passive Skills to reduce the damage they take from Moves and Sync Moves while they are unaffected by status changes, so use Raihan (Anniversary 2022) & Flygon’s Fire Spin to leave them trapped!

Your opponent mainly uses physical attacks, so use Raihan (Anniversary 2022) & Flygon’s Max Wyrmwind to lower their Attack.
