The next features have been announced for Pokémon Masters for April and May.
After the update, you'll be able to select an Egg for Bulbasaur, Charmander or Squirtle and develop a new Sync Pair with your main character. In the future, more eggs including those for Scyther, Meowth and Tauros will be released
The next Legendary event will focus on Ho-Oh. This event adds a "Prize Box", a new item that lets you select Prize Coins from the event to obtain items and new area info. There's also a Reward Boost Ticket, which can be applied once per day and boost the rewards. Finally there will be a new item as a reward for the event which will let you power up a 5 Star Strike Sync Pair.
