Pokemon Unite is the strategic battle game that is currently in development. This League of Legends-like Pokemon game's reveal was the most disliked video on Pokemon's YouTube Channel, but fans of the series are still looking for details, and the internet has leaked some interesting new information.
Back in June, the Pokemon Company announced the coming MOBA, Pokemon Unite, in development for Switch and mobile. There are very few details of the game floating around the internet, most from the reveal video. However, recently Pokemon Unite began some private internal testing for the game, and some of the testers decided not to keep quiet, leaking Pokemon Unite screenshots an Twitter.
Twitter user Nihilego_Khu shared a collection of screenshots for the upcoming MOBA Pokemon Unite. Along with the screenshots, information of some of the non-legendary Pokemon that will show up in Pokemon Unite and some general details were also leaked.
The Pokemon that have currently been revealed to be in the game by the leak are Bulbasaur, Squirtle, Jigglypuff, Machop, Slowpoke, Froakie, Fletchling, and Charmander along with their basic evolutions. Pikachu, Snorlax, Lucario, and Zeraora were also spoiled, but without their evolutions. All Pokemon will evolve at level 5, then again at level 7 if it has a third evolution.
Basic Pokemon Unite play begins with teams built from 5 basic roles: Support, Standard, Defense, Speed, and Power. Most Pokemon have both long-range and short-range attacks or support. Pokemon learn new moves at levels 1, 3, 5, and 7, then will learn Unite at level 9. Pokemon can be Beginner level, Medium, or Master level, and they can be sorted by order of release or order of recruit time.
Probably the most interesting gameplay information was about the random Pokemon and items that appear on the map. Rare candies and berries can appear on the map at any time, boosting Pokemon's abilities, healing them, or giving them special effects. Also, wild Pokemon will appear on the map and engage in battle with teams, and some of these wild Pokemon may even be Legendary.
Fans can be sure that this is not the complete information or list of Pokemon that will be in Pokemon Unite, but this leak appears to be real. These screenshots and information all came from one user that claimed to be one of the beta testers, but some have been backed up by other Twitter users and other testers. Hopefully, Pokemon fans will get to see even more of this contentious game in the near future.
Pokemon Unite is in development.
