Pokemon Unite fans may need to adjust their strategies, as the Pokemon Unite Game Update March 15 patch has gone live, and it’s bringing a Poketon of changes to the game’s roster.
Hoopa–one of the game’s newest Pokemon–received some substantial adjustments to its moves, particularly in regard to its alternate Unbound form. Greedent continues to see nerfs as it has since it launched into the game, while Lucario has also received a slight change in damage output to one of its special moves.
Trevenant is one of the few Pokemon boosted by the latest patch.
On the positive side, Trevenant and Dedicueye both received damage boosts to certain moves, making them more appealing for battle going forward. Tsareena seems to have benefitted the most from this patch, however, as it received multiple stat boosts as well as increased attack power for two of her top moves.
The changes to the existing roster come as the latest Pokemon to join the fray, the Steel- and Dragon-type Duraludon, also joins the battle in this patch. Duraludon is an attack-focused character that can deal a lot of damage in large areas, as opposed to singling out opponents one at a time.
Pokemon Unite is a free-to-play 5-on-5 MOBA game pitting characters from across Pokemon history against one another in a giant arena. The full list of changes coming in the Pokemon Unite Game Update March 15 is below.
