Is it worth rolling for Sygna Suit Red & Charizard?

Yes, absolutely! Sygna Suit Red & Charizard has strong offensive stats, strong moves, and strong passives.

Sygna Suit Red & Charizard has the highest base total stats in the game, which was previously held by Professor Oak & Mew, which came out very recently. They have a base total of 1943. Both their Atk. and Sp. Atk. stats are very high even at pre-Mega-Evolution. Their HP stat puts them at around top ten for most HP.

Their Speed stat is average, which is one downside, but can be mended with support buffs or perhaps a Sync Grid upgrade. Defensively, Sygna Suit Red & Charizard are weak. Don’t let this discourage you, however, since offense is often a good defense.

Sygna Suit Red & Charizard’s moveset contains both single-target and AoE (area-of-effect) moves, both of which are ridiculously strong. My Destiny! makes the Sync Pair into even more of a glass cannon, sacrificing defense for offense.

The cherry on top for Sygna Suit Red & Charizard is their passives, which are just plain good. Moves never miss, which makes their moveset even better. Whenever they use a move there’s a chance for both the other passives to proc (activate)—a move gauge refresh and a chance to lower the Sync Move countdown.

If you don’t have either Hilda & Emboar or Ethan & Typhlosion then it’s really worth rolling for Sygna Suit Red & Charizard. They will likely be your go-to Fire-type Sync Pair. If you don’t have Olivia & Lycanroc (the ultimate Striker), similarly, roll for Sygna Suit Red & Charizard. In fact, even if you have all the aforementioned Sync Pairs, it’s probably still worth it to roll for them!
