Adjustment Details
Changes have been made to some Pokémon stats and moves to adjust the balance of Unite Battles.
【Crustle】
To enhance the hindrance capability of Rock Tomb against opponents and make it easier for Crustle to fulfill its role as a Defender Pokémon, adjustments have been made. Additionally, its Unite Move has been adjusted so that it can be used more frequently.
- Rock Tomb
- Duration opponents' movement speed is decreased: 2s → 3s
- Unite Move: Rubble Rouser
- Energy requirement: 120000 → 110000
【Dodrio】
To allow Dodrio to utilize its high mobility to run around Theia Sky Ruins while performing more actively in Unite Battles, move cooldowns and damage have been adjusted.
- Jump Kick
- Cooldown: 6.5s → 6s
- Drill Peck
- Damage: 8% increase
- Unite Move: Triple Trample
- Energy requirement: 120000 → 110000
【Articuno】
The slowing effect of Ice Beam has been strengthened to improve its long-range harassment capability. Additionally, the damage required to destroy the ice covering goal areas has been increased, strengthening its ability to defend goal areas.
- Ice Beam
- Movement speed reduction effect: 30% → 40%
- Unite Move: Ice Wing Whiteout
- Damage: 10% increase
- Damage required to destroy ice covering goal areas: 1000 increase
【Mewtwo Y】
As an Attacker Pokémon, its ability to deal damage was lacking compared to other Attacker Pokémon, making it difficult to perform in Unite Battles. To allow it to display immense power capable of crushing skyscrapers with just a slight telekinetic force, the damage of its basic attack—its primary means of offense—has been increased.
- Basic Attack
- Damage: 10% increase
- Damage during Mega Evolution: 8% increase
【Buzzwole】
Since it previously struggled to influence the outcome of Unite Battles with its bulked-up muscles, the damage of its boosted attack has been increased, and the cooldown of Superpower has been shortened, allowing it to fully showcase power capable of shattering dump trucks with a single punch in Unite Battles.
- Boosted Attack
- Damage: 12.5% increase
- Superpower
- Cooldown: 8s → 7.5s
【Alolan Ninetales】
As an Attacker Pokémon with hindrance effects, its low damage output made it difficult to perform actively. Therefore, the damage of its boosted attack and Avalanche has been increased to enhance its long-range offensive capability.
- Boosted Attack
- Damage: 8% increase
- Avalanche
- Damage: 10% increase
【Moltres】
Since it was frequently knocked out due to insufficient durability when approaching opponents to attack, the Defense and Sp. Def stat increases gained when hitting opposing Pokémon with Sky Attack have been strengthened, and the damage of its Unite Move has been increased to improve its damage output.
- Sky Attack
- Defense and Sp. Def increase based on the number of opposing Pokémon hit: 8% → 10%
- Unite Move: Firebird Inferno
- Damage: 10% increase
【Yveltal】
Because the damage increase effect from its Ability and the damage of Oblivion Wing were overly strong, creating an oppressive one-sided pressure on opponents, its overall damage-dealing capability has been tuned down.
- Ability: Dark Aura
- Damage increase per Destruction Counter stack: 3% → 2%
- Oblivion Wing
- Damage: 5% decrease
【Reshiram】
Because Blue Flare and its Unite Move dealt extremely high damage, and it could frequently gain the buff effects of its Unite Move—exerting overwhelming dominance from the mid-to-late game in Unite Battles—the move damage and Unite Move buff effects have been tuned down overall.
- Blue Flare
- Damage: 10% decrease
- Boosted Attack
- Unite Move charge time reduction granted by boosted attack: 15% → 10%
- Unite Move: Flames That Bring Lightning
- Damage: 10% decrease
- Shield amount gained on 3rd Unite Move activation: 20% → 10%
- Movement speed increase gained on 3rd Unite Move activation: 30% → 15%
- Move cooldown reduction effect gained on 3rd Unite Move activation: 30% → 10%
- Buff effect duration gained on 3rd Unite Move activation: 6s → 4s
【Duraludon】
Since continuous long-range attacks were overly strong, the cooldown of Flash Cannon has been extended, and the usage frequency of its Unite Move has been lowered.
- Flash Cannon
- Cooldown: 5s → 6s
- Unite Move: Revolving Ruin
- Energy requirement: 100000 → 110000
【Feraligatr】
Because the mobility and durability provided by Waterfall and the extremely high damage of Crunch allowed it to perform too easily on the battlefield, the effects of each move have been tuned down.
- Waterfall
- Cooldown: 6.5s → 7.5s
- Shield amount: 15% decrease
- Crunch
- Damage of Gluttonous fangs (Red): 10% decrease
- Damage of Clamping fangs (Purple): 10% decrease
【Greedent】
Because its high durability allowed it to ignore opponent damage and repeatedly enter and exit enemy lines with excessive ease, its Defense and Sp. Def have been reduced, and the usage frequency of its Unite Move has been lowered.
- Stats
- Defense: 75–540 → 75–500
- Sp. Def: 60–460 → 60–420
- Unite Move: Berry Belly Flop
- Energy requirement: 90000 → 100000
【Garchomp】
Because the continuous hindrances and close-quarters combat capabilities provided by Dragon Rush and Dragon Claw were overly strong, the cooldowns of both moves have been extended.
- Dragon Rush
- Cooldown: 5.5s → 6s
- Dragon Claw
- Cooldown: 4s → 5s
【Comfey】
Because the hindrance of Sweet Kiss was extremely strong, often leaving opponents with no room to counterattack, the cooldown of the move and the duration opponents are infatuated have been tuned down.
- Sweet Kiss
- Cooldown: 6s → 7s
- Duration opponents are infatuated: 0.6s + flowers consumed × 0.1s → 0.2s + flowers consumed × 0.1s
Bug Fixes
The following bugs have been fixed:
- Fixed a bug where hitting opposing Pokémon with Meowth's Pay Day when Assurance was not learned would increase the gauge representing the number of times damage was recently dealt—an effect intended for Assurance.
- Fixed a bug where players could instantly score twice in a broken goal zone caused by Zapdos's Unite Move under specific conditions.
- Fixed a bug where the second hit of Palkia's Dragon Claw would fail to hit opposing Pokémon that were thrown.
- Fixed a bug where Glaceon's basic attacks would deal damage based on Attack when hitting unseen opposing Pokémon in tall grass.
- Fixed a bug where Sirfetch'd would fail to learn Fury Cutter or Leaf Blade under specific conditions, leaving its move unchanged from Dual Wingbeat.
- Fixed a bug where Gyarados and Mega Gyarados could charge a goal while using their Unite Move under specific conditions.
- Fixed a bug where the stack display for Dhelmise's Ability Steelworker and Inteleon's Ability Sniper would show zero stacks if the camera was moved off-screen while stacks were accumulated.
