About this game

Team up and take down the opposition in Pokémon’s first 5-on-5 strategic team battle game!

Join Trainers from around the world as they head for Aeos Island to compete in Unite Battles! In Unite Battles, Trainers face off in 5-on-5 team battles to see who can score the most points within the allotted time. Teamwork is key as you and your teammates defeat wild Pokémon, level up, evolve your own Pokémon, and work to prevent the opposing team from scoring points. Put your teamwork to the test, and take home the win!

Key Features:

• BATTLE IN STYLE: Take to the field while looking your best in Holowear! Thanks to a special technology developed using Aeos energy, Trainers can deck out their Pokémon in a variety of holographic outfits—with new styles arriving regularly!

• UNITE MOVES: Unleash the true power of your Pokémon with Unite Moves! Leverage these all-new Pokémon moves, which are only possible while in Unite Battles, and turn the tide of even the direst situations.

• RANK UP: Looking to prove how skilled you are? Participate in ranked matches, and earn points as you climb up the global leaderboard!

• COMMUNICATION IS KEY: Even the most-skilled Trainers recognize how important communication is to their team’s success. Leverage signals, quick-chat messages, and—for the first time in a Pokémon title—voice chat to communicate and stay in sync with your team.

• CROSS-PLATFORM PLAY: Challenge Trainers from around the world to Unite Battles on the Nintendo Switch™ system or on a compatible mobile device thanks to cross-platform support. Trainers may use their Pokémon Trainer Club account or Nintendo Account on both Nintendo Switch and mobile to easily keep their progress synced between devices.

Ratings and reviews

This is a fun game. However as a competitive, free-to-play player there are some major issues. A recent update made the game require you to pay for new characters/Pokémon to unlock and play instead of using earned game currency, and the new free progression takes forever. The Pokémon are not balanced at all. The main menu feels like the developers vomited a kitchen sick and added background music. I also could not find a way to report the bugs I experienced. It's a shame since I do this game

The game is fun and I enjoy it a lot... with that being said coming back after an extended period of time and after convincing my 2 brothers to join me I find out there's a new and only way for F2P people to get new pokemon and that's the License Journey. From what I've seen so far the only way to get points for the License is by progressing in the battle pass as to before you could play matches and earn gold coins and then you could buy whatever pokemon you wanted.

Fun gameplay, but horrible monetization. The membership offers less premium currency than it used to, and the price remains the same. Additionally, the price of the battlepass has increased while also removing items previously included. The game is in its death spiral and trying to squeeze all of the money it can out of customers. Do not play.
