Effect

The Synchro Machine is activated by holding down the L button then pressing the R button, which allows the player to travel from the perspective of their lead party Pokémon. The Synchro Machine only works inside the Terarium.

While synchronized, the player can engage wild Pokémon in a way similar to the Auto Battle feature by touching them or by pressing the Y button. Upon reaching low HP, the synchronization will end. While synchronized, items on the ground can be picked up, but NPCs and other players cannot be interacted with. A synchronized Pokémon that is moving above the ground by means of flight or levitation will slowly glide to the ground instead of falling at the usual speed of the player when dropping from large heights, but it can be made to land fully on the ground (and take off again) by pressing the B button while not moving, if it actually has feet. Pokémon that fly, float or levitate, as well as Water-type Pokémon and a few others, can move across water by levitating/flying over it, but if a grounded Pokémon moves into water, the synchronization will end with the message "<Pokémon> managed to scramble back out of the water!"
