Baking Buddies (Japanese: セレナとヒカリの贈り物) was a story event in Pokémon Masters EX. It was focused on the sync pairs Serena (Palentine's 2021) & Whimsicott and Dawn (Palentine's 2021) & Alcremie.

During this event, players could earn Melty Chocolate, Fluffy Frosting, Fresh Berries, and Chocoberry Cakes from battles that could be redeemed in the shop. All battles could be challenged an unlimited number of times except Ultimate Ingredient Collection, which could only be challenged once per day. Extra ingredients were automatically exchanged with coins once the event was finished.

This event featured the Full-Force Battle, where players were challenged to defeat a large group of strong opponents. Similar to the Legendary Arena, players could use multiple teams with a limited number of total sync pairs, with the opponents' health carrying over between rounds and with previously used pairs unable to be used again until the challenge is reset. medals could be earned by completing specific missions.

In addition, players could earn a medal for completing the first four story areas in the event.

The story areas Serena's Gift and Dawn's Gift could be unlocked by purchasing Serena's Letter and Dawn's Letter, respectively, from the shop. Completing these areas rewarded the player with Serena's Mocha Poké Puff and Dawn's Sweet Poké Puff, respectively. These four items are not automatically exchanged for coins.

First run

The event first ran from January 29 to February 19, 2021. The "Serena Seasonal Scout" gave players an increased chance of recruiting Serena (Palentine's 2021) & Whimsicott for the duration of the event, and the "Dawn Seasonal Scout" gave players an increased chance of recruiting Dawn (Palentine's 2021) & Alcremie starting on February 1, 2021 and lasting until the end of the event.

Players had a chance to obtain access to the special area Whirling, Twirling, Tasty Battles when completing one of the Challenge Pasio's Trainers, Ingredient Gathering, Ingredient Hunting, or Ultimate Ingredient Collection areas; this area could only be played once before it had to be unlocked again.

The player could battle using Serena (Palentine's 2021) & Whimsicott or Dawn (Palentine's 2021) & Alcremie to obtain +0.6× bonus ingredients; Lillie & Clefairy to obtain +0.4× bonus ingredients; and any unlisted Fairy-type sync pairs to obtain +0.2× bonus ingredients.

Second run

The event reran from February 5 to 19, 2022. The "Serena and Dawn Seasonal Scout" gave players an increased chance of recruiting Serena (Palentine's 2021) & Whimsicott and Dawn (Palentine's 2021) & Alcremie for the duration of the event. In addition, the "5★-Guaranteed Seasonal Scout" ran during the same time period. This scout could only be used once, guaranteed that the player would receive a 5★ pair, and had a chance of recruiting Serena (Palentine's 2021) & Whimsicott and Dawn (Palentine's 2021) & Alcremie. However, they did not have higher odds of appearing than any other sync pairs available in the scout.

The player could battle using Serena (Palentine's 2021) & Whimsicott or Dawn (Palentine's 2021) & Alcremie to obtain +0.6× bonus ingredients; Lillie & Clefairy to obtain +0.4× bonus ingredients; and Scottie/Bettie & Pikachu, Scottie/Bettie & Torchic, or any unlisted Fairy-type sync pairs to obtain +0.2× bonus ingredients.

If the player had obtained Serena's Letter or Dawn's Letter in the previous run, the area Serena's Gift or Dawn's Gift would be unlocked immediately. If the player exchanged ingredients for these letters in the shop, the duplicate letter would be converted into a 3★ Power-Up. However, playing through Serena's Gift or Dawn's Gift again would not give the player a duplicate of Serena's Mocha Poké Puff or Dawn's Sweet Poké Puff.

Plot

Serena and Dawn invite the player to go into town, in their new Palentine's Day-themed outfits. After meeting up, Dawn and Serena tell the player that they need to start collecting ingredients to make some Palentine's Day sweets through winning Pokémon battles. While heading to a shop to check out some ingredients, they run into an Ace Trainer and Cheryl. Cheryl tells the group that the Ace Trainer wants to make some sweets for someone close to her, but is not very good at it. Dawn invites Cheryl and the Ace Trainer to make sweets with her, Serena, and the player, and they accept.

After collecting all the ingredients they need, Dawn, Serena, the player, Cheryl, and the Ace Trainer start looking for a place to start making the sweets. They run into Lillie, who asks the player if they are getting ready for Palentine's Day too. The player says yes, and Lillie tells them that she is making sweets with Professor Bellis and Mina. The player's group asks Lillie if they can all tag along with her, and she agrees. Everything is going well with the cooking, until something explodes because of the Ace Trainer. Everyone in the group offers to help out, until something explodes again and the Ace Trainer runs away. Professor Bellis tells the group, along with another Ace Trainer, to look for the first Ace Trainer while she cleans up the results of the two explosions.

Dawn, Serena, Lillie, Mina, Cheryl, and the player find the Ace Trainer, who is very upset over her skills as a cook. After brainstorming a bit, the group comes up with an idea that could help the Ace Trainer make sweets without something bad happening. The Ace Trainer is unsure at first, until the second Ace Trainer from before tells her that she can do it. Along with the encouragement of the group's Pokémon and the second Ace Trainer, she decides to give cooking another try and succeeds, making some delicious sweets she shares with her new friends, the other Ace Trainer and her partner Pokémon.

Dawn	I can't wait to get baking!
Serena	Hey, Dawn, have you decided who you're going to give sweets to for Palentine's Day?
Dawn	Of course I have! I'm going to give some to you and Alcremie and Whimsicott and...
Serena	Hehe! Thanks, Dawn. I'll be sure to give you some, too!
Dawn	Thank you! I can't wait to try whatever you make! I can't wait to get baking!

Happy Palentine's Day!

(Pokémon Center)
Serena	Hey, <player>! Would you like to do something fun for Palentine's Day with us?
Dawn	Palentine's Day is a day for showing thanks to all the people close to you by giving them sweets. Pretty sweet event, huh? We're going to make our Palentine's Day sweets from scratch!
Serena	We even changed outfits into something more suited to the task!
Dawn	We can get the ingredients we need for our sweets in town. Why don't you join us?
Serena	We're going to go ahead and make our way to town. We'll see you there later!

Clumsy but Genuine

Name	Text
(Town)
Serena	Hey! Over here!
Dawn	Thanks for coming, <player>!
Serena	Now that you're here, let's get started collecting the ingredients we need to make sweets. How do we do it?: By having Pokémon battles at the ingredient shops! Collect? We aren't buying them?: When we find ingredients we want, we have to challenge that store to a Pokémon battle!
Dawn	Lear made a special deal with the shops here on Pasio just for Palentine's Day. The deal made it so that we can get the ingredients we need for Palentine's Day sweets through Pokémon battles!
Serena	Right! So all we have to do to get ingredients is win battles! Sounds good! I'm ready to battle!: That's the spirit! With you and Dawn here, getting all the ingredients we need will be a piece of cake! OK! Let's get lots of ingredients!: Yeah! With you and Dawn here, gathering ingredients will be a piece of cake!
Dawn	All right! Before we battle, let's check what ingredients we need.
Serena	We're going to make Poké Puffs. They're a popular treat in Kalos. As far as ingredients go, we'll need frosting, chocolate, and Berries. I think the perfect shop for us is right over there!
(Transition to Cheryl with an Ace Trainer (1))
Dawn	Wait, is that Cheryl over there?
Ace Trainer (1)	Are you sure I'll be OK? You've done so much to help me. If I just fail again...
Cheryl	Don't worry! I know you'll do a good job with this recipe.
Serena	Hello, Cheryl. Is something wrong?
Cheryl	Oh, hello, Serena and Dawn. Ah, <player> is here, too, I see. Are you all here to gather what you need for Palentine's Day sweets?
Dawn	Yes, but we can stop to help out if there's something you need help with!
Cheryl	Well, the truth is...
(Fade to black, then back)
Serena	I see. So there's someone you want to show your thanks to, but you're not very good at making sweets?
Ace Trainer (1)	I tried a few times, but I could never quite get it right. I was sitting here in front of the shop, trying to figure out if there was anything I could actually make, when Cheryl offered to help.
Cheryl	I thought she might have a better chance with a simple recipe, so I told her one that I know. But she said that she still wasn't confident in her ability with just the recipe alone, so...
Dawn	I see. In that case, why don't you two come make sweets with us? I know how it feels to have someone special who you want to show thanks to. What do you two think of that plan?
Serena	The more the merrier!: I don't mind, either. Let's make some tasty sweets together! It sounds like fun!: It sure does. Let's all have fun making some tasty sweets together!
Ace Trainer (1)	Th-thank you! I'll do my best!
Dawn	All right! Let's get to collecting ingredients!

Pal Collaboration!

Name	Text
Dawn	I think we've got the ingredients we need. Now we just need somewhere to make the sweets.
Lillie	Oh, hey, <player>! Are you getting ready for Palentine's Day? Yeah. You, too?: Yes! I'm about to head to Professor Bellis's lab to make some sweets! You're collecting ingredients, too?: I actually already got all I need. I'm about to head to Professor Bellis's lab to make some sweets! Mina, Professor Bellis, and I are planning to make them together!
Serena	That sounds great! Would you mind if we tagged along?
Lillie	I don't mind! And I bet Professor Bellis will be happy to see you, too!
(Transition to Professor Bellis's Lab)
Lillie	Professor Bellis! I found a few reliable friends to help us make sweets!
Professor Bellis	Subarashii! How wonderful! Welcome, welcome!
Serena	Sorry for showing up without notice. Would it be OK for us to make sweets with you?
Professor Bellis	Mais bien sûr! But of course! Palentine's Day is a day to enjoy together with friends! I have everything you would ever need to make sweets here. Have at it!
Dawn	Thank you! In that case, let's get right to it!
Serena	This oven has such fine controls! It's so easy to use!
Dawn	And this mixer can be set to the exact mixing strength you want!
Lillie	Professor Bellis told me that she actually specially made all of these tools herself!
Serena	With all these tools, we'll be able to make way better sweets than we'd planned on!
(Explosion)
Ace Trainer (1)	What could have made it explode?!
Professor Bellis	Are you two OK? You aren't hurt, are you?
Ace Trainer (1)	We're fine, but our sweets...
Cheryl	I'm not sure what could have caused an explosion, but why not try reducing the amount of ingredients you use?
Serena	Hmm... Maybe check the heat you're using, too? Oh, Whimsicott! Would you bring us some new ingredients, please?
Dawn	Would you like to try mixing with me? Alcremie, get ready with the frosting for when they're done baking!
Professor Bellis	Don't worry about breaking any of my tools. I can always fix them! Just think of this as an eksperimenteer!
Lillie	We'll help, too!
(Dawn and Serena help the Ace Trainer (1), but cause another explosion)
Ace Trainer (1)	Why can't I ever get it right? No matter how many times I try, I always fail! I've tried everything! I give up!
(The Ace Trainer (1) leaves)
Dawn	We have to go after her!: Yes, we do! I want to make sure she makes it to the end of this baking adventure with us! There are still things she can try!: You're right! We still have time. I'm sure she'll figure it out!
Professor Bellis	I'll clean up here. You all run along and find your friend!
Serena	What? These sweets...
(An Ace Trainer (2) appears)
Ace Trainer (2)	Hey, would you mind if I join you to look for that girl who just ran off?

Thank-Yous All Around

Name	Text
(Cheryl, Dawn, Serena, and the player looking for the Ace Trainer (1) in the forest)
Dawn	Look! Over there!
Serena	I'm glad we found you. We got worried when you just suddenly ran off. Let's all go back to Professor Bellis's lab together, OK?
Ace Trainer (1)	I don't want to go back. I don't think I'll ever get it right...
Cheryl	But you were trying so hard. Do you really want to give up?
Ace Trainer (1)	I can't keep on trying! I don't want to fail again!
Dawn	It's OK to make mistakes! The important thing on Palentine's Day is the heart that you put into your gift! You worked so hard to collect ingredients and were doing your best at making the sweets. You've already put a lot of heart into it!
(Lillie and Mina appear)
Mina	I agree with Dawn. You looked like you were having fun when we were cooking, no matter how many times you messed up. You had such a great smile that I forgot what I was doing and started sketching you instead of cooking!
Ace trainer (1)	Well, you're right. I was having fun cooking... I even imagined the looks of happiness on the faces of the people receiving the sweets. But just because it's fun doesn't mean I can do it well, and there's no point if I can't do it well!
Serena	I believe in you! These sweets of yours show just how much heart you have!
Lillie	Two? You were trying to make two different sweets? Were you maybe trying to make enough for your partner Pokémon as well?
Cheryl	Well, I think that explains why the ingredients didn't work together! In that case, why don't we increase the amounts of the ingredients you're using and tweak the recipe a bit as well?
Dawn	Just increasing the ingredient amounts may not be enough. We might need to cook them differently, too...
Lillie	Oh! I have an idea! In Alola, we sometimes just share a single big malasada with our Pokémon!
Serena	That's a great idea! Instead of making two smaller ones, we can just make a single big one! That might be just the idea to make this work!
Ace Trainer (1)	But...but what if I fail again?
Ace Trainer (2)	You can do it! I believe in you!
(Ace Trainer (2) appears)
Ace Trainer (2)	You've worked hard and overcome all sorts of obstacles in the past!
Ace Trainer (1)	What? Why are you here?
Ace Trainer (2)	It looked like something was bothering you, so I got worried and decided to sort of keep an eye on you... I'm sorry for following you around without telling you, but I just can't bear to see you like this! You actually regret running away like that, don't you. Are you sure you want to give up now?
Ace Trainer (1)	... ... ...
(Dawn's Alcremie and Serena's Whimsicott cheer)
Ace Trainer (1)	I don't think I understand...
Dawn	I think they want to say that they were having fun making sweets with you!
Serena	I was having fun, too. I sure would like to make sweets with you again!
Ace Trainer (1)	Thank you... OK! I'll try it one more time!
(Transition to Professor Bellis's Lab)
Ace Trainer (1)	We did it!
Dawn	Wow! That looks really good!
Serena	It's cooked just right, and you've decorated it perfectly as well!
Ace Trainer (2)	That's amazing! You can add this to the list of obstacles you've overcome!
Ace Trainer (1)	Thank you. It's all thanks to all of you. Um...so...anyway... Here! This is for you!
Ace Trainer (2)	What?! For me?!
Ace Trainer (1)	I wanted to thank you for always being there to cheer me on. Thank you! I'm thankful for you, too! Thank you for always being by my side! And thank you for being here today to cheer me on! Here, let's split this!
Dawn	I'm glad everything worked out in the end!
Serena	Me too! All right, now it's our turn to do our best! Let's show everyone just how thankful we are for them!

I'm so glad you came!
Hehe. This is kind of embarrassing, but...
Well, you see...
the reason I called you out here today is because I had something I just had to give you!
Here it is! Palentine's Day sweets from me to you!
I made another one later after we all made our sweets together.
It's tasty. I guarantee it! Actually, it may be the tastiest thing I made today!
I worked really hard on it. I hope you'll accept it.
Of course!: Hehe. Thanks!
Thank you!: No, thank YOU!
It's thanks to you that I'm able to have so much fun here on Pasio.
If you don't mind, let's continue on our adventure together!
I'm relying on you more than you know...

I was waiting for you, <player>!
Sorry for calling you out here at a time like this!
To tell you the truth, there's something that I want to give you.
Here it is... It's a Palentine's Day sweet!
I made it by myself, and I think I burnt it a little. But don't worry—I'm sure it still tastes good!
I put all of my thanks into it...
Please accept it!
Of course!: Hehe! Thanks!
Thank you!: Hehe! You're welcome!
I'm always thankful for all you do for me, but I thought this would be a good chance to show that!
You're always helping me out, but you know...
I'd really like to be able to help you out, too!
So feel free to rely on me when you're in need!
Promise me that you will! OK, <player>?
