As one can see above, these units are capable of buffing themselves to begin their onslaught. It is also recommended that a user brings more than one offensive unit, as each player can only have a single unit in play at a time. Bringing 2x support would reduce your overall damage by a great amount. This also allows you to have a backup Striker, in case your first Striker dies to AoE, or just gets focused down (as enemies do not target by highest Bulk first in Co-op, and use a yet-to-be-understood “aggro” system). One can still bring multiple supports, but it is recommended to do so if you are playing with friends or online partners, where you have a strategy in place.

Now that we talked about getting focused, what other Sync Pairs are good?

Upcoming Sync Trainer Blue & Pidgeot, as well as Hau & Alolan Raichu are also very good Co-op options. They can buff their offensive stats while also raising their evasion. When enemy Sync Pairs use their AoE moves and miss, it saves a great deal of health, and these Strikers can survive for a surprising number of rounds by merit of their evasion.
