However, the game includes a new mechanic to the series known as 'Unite Moves', which are moves similar to Ultimate moves in other MOBAs, and are unique to each Pokémon and are unlocked at certain levels depending on the Pokémon. The 'type' system common in other Pokémon games, a system similar to rock paper scissors that determines each Pokémon's effectiveness against others, is absent from Pokémon Unite. The Pokémon may become stronger and gain access to new 'moves' by capturing wild Pokémon, helping defeat wild Pokémon that their teammate captures, and knocking out enemy player Pokémon. The Quick Battle game mode has different maps, each with some changes to the rules, size of map and species of wild Pokémon temporary event maps.Įach player starts a match controlling a relatively weak Pokémon.

There are limited time maps, and a game mode called Quick Battle, which is five minutes long with four players (sometimes 3) on each team.

If there is a tie, the team that scored the tied score first wins. Surrendering can only happen if the match reaches the halfway mark, and if a majority vote among the team members is reached. A team can also win if the opposing team surrenders. Each match is limited to 10 minutes in duration, and the team with the highest total score by the end of each match wins.
