Zone (Japanese: ゾーン Zone) is a type of field effect in the Pokémon games that affects all Pokémon on the field. The mechanic was introduced in Pokémon Masters EX. Only one type of zone may be present at a time, with any new zone put in place overwriting the previous zone. Zones can run concurrently alongside weather and terrain. Similar to these field effects, zones will last for 45 seconds (not including sync moves or Max Moves).
There are so far eight types of zones (in order of release): Ghost Zone, Dragon Zone, Steel Zone, Dark Zone, Flying Zone, Bug Zone, Ground Zone, and Fighting Zone. Each zone powers up attacks of that type (e.g., Ghost Zone powers up Ghost-type moves).
