Experience a new kind of Pokémon battle in Pokémon UNITE. Team up and face off in 5-on-5 team battles to see who can score the most points within the allotted time. Work together with your fellow Trainers to catch wild Pokémon, level up and evolve your partner Pokémon, and defeat the opposing team’s Pokémon to prevent them from scoring points. Put your teamwork to the test, and take home the win!
Gameplay
|
This section is incomplete. Please feel free to edit this section to add missing information and complete it. |
Players compete in Unite Battles, where two teams attempt to score points in the opposing team's goals while guarding their own. To score, players collect Aeos energy by defeating wild Pokémon or members of the enemy team them bring it to an opposing goal. The team with the highest score after ten minutes wins; if there is a tie, the team that reached the tied score first wins.
Pokémon begin a match at level one in their lowest form (discounting baby Pokémon) and gain experience gradually over time and by defeating wild Pokémon. Pokémon will evolve and learn new moves as they level up, much like the core series. Initially, a Pokémon has two moves and the player chooses which one to keep. The other move is then unlocked at level three. These moves are upgraded at proceeding levels with the player choosing one of two moves to replace the move with. At the Pokémon's final level it unlocks its Unite Move, a separate attack that must charge over time.
