Evolving your Sync Pairs (Pokemon) rewards you with increased stats. This in turn allows you to deal more damage and withstand far greater than damage than you would with a Basic Stage Pokemon. This effect can be seen in all roles, regardless of the Sync Pair being a Strike or Support.

Sync Moves also get boosted whenever a Sync Pair transcends to a higher stage. As both Attack and Sp. Atk are raised, damage also gets raised. Take advantage of this by evolving strong Strike Role Sync Pairs and use them to smash your enemies!
Consumes Evolution Crystals & Shards
To evolve your Sync Pairs, you need to have "Evolution Shards" for Stage 1 and "Evolution Crystals" for Stage 2. Both are limited and require a very large amount of coins to buy after the initial purchase. With this restriction, it would be best to consider to prioritize the Pokemon in which you can get the most out of.

Kris & Totodile

Kris and Totodile are among the strongest Physical Strike Sync Pairs in the game. Not only does its stats grow whenever it evolves to Croconaw and Feraligatr, its Sync Move also gets powered up. As a Strike and primary damager, evolving Totodile is high in the priority list.

Rosa & Snivy

It is no secret that the free Sync Pair, Rosa and Snivy, are among the best Supports in Pokemon Masters. The Move Set that these guys carry can be used in a lot of situations and having them survive through the increase in stats granted by evolving is a no-brainer. But if offensive capabilities are put into consideration, this Sync Pair gets an A.

As of the game's current state, only three Sync Pairs can evolve to Stage 2 and this is very likely to change in the future. With a lot of Pokemon lined-up, it is best to store them for now and use them on more viable candidates instead.
B Rank
Barry & Piplup

Barry and Piplup specialize in dealing water-type damage to all opponents. But with stronger water-type Strikers such as Totodile and more efficient ones like Hau's Raichu, Barry and Piplup's place in the priority list is not that high. Evolve only if you must.

Sync Pairs With Stage 2 Evolution

Prioritize on using your Evolution Shards on Sync Pairs with Stage 2 evolutions as they are required to be in Stage 1 before they can proceed to Stage 2. Freely use your Evolution Shards on these Pokemon first.
Viola & Surskit

Viola and Surksit's passive skill nets them a higher place in the rankings. With "Terrify 1", whenever this Sync Pair enters the battlefield, all opposing Pokemon's Attack gets lowered by 1. In multiplayer, if used in tandem with Drake and Salamence, players can loop the two, greatly reducing enemy offensive power.

Pryce & Seel

A free Sync Pair, Pryce and Seel's specialty is dealing ice damage to all enemies. In most cases, Hau and Raichu's offensive capabilities outshines this duo. Nevertheless, they are immensely useful when fighting against opponents weak to ice. Best have this Sync Pair ready and evolved.

Though not as heavily limited like Evolution Crystals, Evolution Shards are still subjected to a 1-month limit. If you find yourself having extras of these items, store them instead and opt to wait for better Sync Pairs in future updates.
How To Get Evolution Shards & Crystals
Obtained From Exchanging Items
Only 3 Evolution Crystals In 1 Month

For a Pokemon to evolve to Stage 2, 3 Evolution Crystals are required. However, you can only exchange up to 3 Evolution Crystals in one month and they cost 300,000 coins each, making the decision to which Sync Pair to use them on more important.
Only 15 Crystal Shards Per Month
For Stage 1 Evolutions, you are required to have 5 Evolution Shards. The initial 5 Evolution Shards cost only 1,000 coins and will cost 10,000 coins afterwards, with a limit of 15 per month. Meaning that you are currently limited to evolve up to three Sync Pairs per month. As Evolution Shards are less restricting when compared to Evolution Crystals, try to use them as much as you can.
