How to get the Synchro Machine and play as Pokemon in Pokemon Indigo Disk
You can actually get the Synchro Machine very early in the Indigo Disk DLC. Once you reach the Terarium, go to the central plaza and talk to Synclaire. She is standing near the vending machines. She will ask you to help her out with her experiment. Tell her you will and then perform the experiment.
She will have you practice with the Synchro Machine by moving around as a Pokemon. After the experiment, talk to her again to start another one. This time, you will need to battle three wild Pokemon while synched to your Pokemon.
When the experiment is done, Synclaire will hand over the Synchro Machine. From this point on, you will be able to use it whenever you want. To do so, hold the L button and press the R button. This will synch you with your current lead Pokemon. You can end the synch by pressing the same buttons.
