Agatha (Japanese: キクコ Kikuko) is a Pokémon Trainer in Pokémon Masters EX, based on the character of the same name in the core series. She forms a sync pair with Gengar, which is capable of Mega Evolving. This sync pair was first made available since the game release. The pair's potential can be upgraded to 
6★ EX from April 25, 2024, which unlocks Agatha's EX style.
Agatha also forms a sync pair with her Arbok. This pair is available through a limited Variety sync pair scout beginning on May 7, 2023. This pair can be raised to 6★ EX since it first released, though this pair lacks an EX style.
