Scottie: The Male Avatar Pokémon Masters EX Drops on Pasio

No fixed name, no set face: Scottie is the blank the player fills in. Pokémon Masters EX gives its lead male role to a fully customizable avatar, who lands on Pasio with a Pikachu and a spot to earn in the Pokémon Masters League. His female counterpart is called Bettie; everything else — skin tone, hair color, even the name shown on screen — is decided when you create your save.

An Avatar Before a Character

Scottie doesn't exist outside of your playthrough: he is the male playable character of Pokémon Masters EX, opposite Bettie, his female equivalent. Even the name can be changed, which makes "Scottie" a default label more than a legal identity.

Customization only affects appearance, but it comes with numbers: four skin tones, and eight shades to choose from for both hair and eyes. The default combination, for its part, never changes — fair skin, blue-black hair, gray eyes.

His outfit leans toward green and white: a three-color cap matching his sneakers, a two-tone vest, a white T-shirt trimmed with blue at the hem, dark cropped pants. Two accessories complete the look, a black and red backpack with black straps, and a Poryphone clipped to his belt.

Pasio, Sync Pairs and Three-on-Three Battles

The game opens with an arrival. A young Trainer who has just landed on Pasio, an island built by human hands, Scottie first meets Professor Bellis — she's the one who teaches him how battles work around here.

The local rules boil down to two ideas. Battles are fought three-on-three, and sync moves can only be triggered with sync stones. The entire early game is spent setting up these two mechanics, presented as the island's distinctive features.

His first-day partner is a Pikachu, and nothing forces you to stick with it. What follows is all about building more sync pairs: Torchic, Solgaleo, Regirock, Cobalion or Mesprit are among the possible pairings, along with Pokémon hatched from Eggs — including the three first-generation starters.

The common thread is the tournament. Scottie teams up with Trainers from every region of the Pokémon world, with his sights set on the Pokémon Masters League. So assembling sync pairs isn't a side activity: it's the progression itself, and the reason familiar faces from every continent end up in the same place.

The Promotional Short: A Team, a Forest, a Badge

Scottie gets just one animated appearance, in the promotional short made for the game's launch. In it, he sets off on his journey across Pasio with Rosa and Brock at his side — the format is brief, but it puts on screen exactly what the game calls for: a trio.

The action moves to a forest, where the group runs into an opposing team made up of Erika, a Beauty and a Lass. The battle goes Scottie's way, and he leaves with the Tranquility Badge.

The sequence ends with reinforcements: Erika, the Celadon City Gym Leader, joins the team. The short thus sums up the game's pitch — Trainers from all over joining the player's avatar along the way, rather than a hero moving forward alone.

In short

Scottie is less a character than a way in: the game lends him a default name, a Pikachu and an entire island, then lets the player decide everything else, from the avatar's skin tone to the sync pairs they assemble for the tournament. His only animated appearance tells the same story as the game — it follows a growing team, not a lone hero.
