Pokémon Unite Releasing on Mobile Devices in September

Pokémon Unite Update Nerfs Eldegoss, Buffs Charizard and Wigglytuff

The first major Pokémon Unite update centered around balance changes has arrived.

This is great news if you play as Charizard or Wigglytuff, but slightly less stellar if you were supporting your teammates as Eldegoss. The new Pokémon Unite update nerfs Eldegoss pretty substantially as its HP restoration moves Cotton Guard and Cotton Cloud Crash have been decreased. Meanwhile, Wigglytuff has seen increases across the board to boost its defense and health, while several attacks have been strengthened. Another big winner is Charizard, who has a lessened cooldown for Flamethrower and Fire Blast, while each attack is made more effective.

Many other characters have also seen tweaks made, which you can view below. Also impacted are Talonflame, Venusaur, Absol, Cinderace, Gengar, Zeraora, Cramorant, Machamp, Lucario, Greninja, and Alolan Ninetales.
