Pasio Academy Fair—Prep (Japanese: パシオ学園祭 準備編！ Pasio School Festival - Preparation Arc) was an academy event in Pokémon Masters EX. It was focused on the sync pairs Arven & Skwovet, Perrin (Academy) & Noctowl, and Sonia (Academy) & Corviknight.
The "Sonia Costume Scout" gave players an increased chance of recruiting Sonia (Academy) & Corviknight, and the "Perrin Costume Scout" gave players an increased chance of recruiting Perrin (Academy) & Noctowl. Both of these scouts lasted for the duration of the event.
During this event, players could go through an academy experience with Arven & Skwovet, obtaining custom sync orbs to customize their sync grid by completing battles and story segments. Each time the player completed an academy experience, they received 4 Custom ★ Power-Ups for Arven & Skwovet. Excess Custom ★ Power-Ups could be exchanged in the shop for items.
The player could battle using Perrin (Academy) & Noctowl or Sonia (Academy) & Corviknight to obtain +1.0× sync orbs; Arven & Skwovet to obtain +0.5× sync orbs; Jasmine (Academy) & Forretress, Kabu (Academy) & Camerupt, Iris (Academy) & Lapras, Gladion (Academy) & Porygon-Z, Marnie (Academy) & Cyclizar, Morty (Academy) & Typhlosion, Rei (Academy) & Braviary, Kris (Academy) & Igglybuff, Hugh (Academy) & Pignite, Brendan (Academy) & Marshtomp, Florian & Lechonk, or Rosa (Academy) & Deerling to obtain +0.3× sync orbs; and any unlisted Galar or Paldea sync pairs to obtain +0.1× sync orbs.
In addition, two special log-in bonuses were available during this event. The first was available from April 14 to 21, 2026, and the second was available from April 21 to 28, 2026. Players could receive five Limited-Time Stamina Tickets upon logging in for the first time during each log-in bonus period, with the first set being given by Perrin (Academy) and the second set being given by Sonia (Academy). These tickets could be exchanged for stamina refills in the Replenish Stamina menu, allowing players to have more stamina to try the academy experience. Limited-Time Stamina Tickets were automatically exchanged with coins once they expired, which coincided with the end of the event.
