Pokemon UNITE to Add Mew on September 2
Pokemon UNITE has confirmed that the Mythical Pokemon Mew will be the first of three Pokemon to join the roster on September 2. Subsequently, the Triple Bird Pokemon Dodrio will arrive on September 14, followed by the Pincer Pokemon Scizor on September 28.
In addition to this bit of news, more details were shared on the upcoming Theia Sky Ruins map, and a new event called the Legacy Trainer Showdown is set to begin on September 9.
What’s Coming to Pokemon UNITE in September?
On September 2, the Mythical Pokemon Mew will officially be available in Pokemon UNITE! Players will need to collect several mural fragments as part of Mew’s Mural Challenge in order to unlock its Unite license.
Mew will have special characteristics compared to other Pokemon, namely the ability to learn more moves than any other Pokemon in and the ability to forget/re-learn moves over the course of a battle. This will give it an element of surprise that the opposing team won’t see coming! Mew will also receive special Holowear that is expected to be distributed during the event.
Next up, Dodrio will be arriving in Pokemon UNITE after Mew on September 14, followed by Scizor on September 28, rounding out the three Pokemon previously teased for November.
Something else that received more clarification was the new Theia Sky Ruins map that was teased last week. As seen in the latest trailer, the ruins sit atop a high-altitude mountain with strong winds that will directly affect Pokemon throughout matches.
It was previously rumored that the upon defeat, the Legendary Pokemon that appears in this map, Rayquaza, will reward players with the ability to temporarily makes their scordss unblockable. Supposedly this perk incorporates the strong winds in some way, but players will have to wait and see if this rumor bears fruit.
Players will also have other Legendary Wild Pokemon in the Theia Sky Ruins, mostly notably the Regi Trio consisting of Regice, Registeel, Regirock, Regieleki, and others!
The final bit of news revealed discussed the Legacy Trainer Showdown event that will be held on September 9. During the event, players will be able to face off against the signature Pokemon of some of the series’ most iconic Trainers, including Leon, Korrina, Cynthia, Raihan, and Leaf!
