PoMA Masters List: Minimum Move Levels

Hi friends! There have been a lot of posts lately about which pairs to give our precious move candies
to, so to help you decide, I've collated a master list of the "minimum" move level for each sync pair
(i.e. what move level out of 5 do they need to be at to get the most out of their function). Of course,
there is a layer of subjectivity to these, but this was vetted by numerous veteran Pokemon Master
players. Hope this is a helpful tool! This google document will be updated regularly. The units are
organized into 6 categories:

● Fine at 1/5
● Fine at 1/5, but would like 2/5
● Fine at 1/5, but would like 3/5
● Needs 2/5, and does not need 3/5
● Fine at 2/5, but would like 3/5
● Needs 3/5

After each pair, listed in brackets are their key sync nodes at that respective move level. Note that
BP pairs and pairs that do not have grids are not listed. Also, trainer moves are listed using their
acronyms. Here is the list, separated by F2P vs. Gacha pairs:
