    GOOD riddance to the intentionally broken legendaries but not excited that more are coming

    It feels like it's taken 3000 years for draft to come to ranked

    More item variety is nice but the bad items are still not very well balanced.

    Ex licenses: I strongly disagree with this idea because this is like a permission for you to do not fix broken pokemons. Having broken pokemons is not nice but remove them from ranked is not the best option why don't you simple fix them to make them balanced.

    Draft Pick in Ranked Matches: I agree because this will greatly contribute to have fair matches.

    Additional Held Items & Battle Item: I strongly agree because any new content will make the game richer therefore funner.

    I'm very excited for draft ranked! If I'm reading this right, Mewtwo X/Y and Zacian are banned this upcoming season? Not sure if I agree with that decision, I think bans should be relegated to the player's choice via draft pick. I was looking forward to playing a bit of Mewtwo for the upcoming Battle Pass skin as I play exclusively ranked but I guess I won't be able to until next season. It just seems a bit of a harsh decision but regardless I'm looking forward to Draft finally!

    I absolutely love everything about this announcement. 😄

    Seeing a Mewtwo or Zacian on my screen always made me groan inside. It is good to see them banned from competitive play. This is similar to TCG Tournaments banning ridiculous pokemon cards.

    The news of 2 more held items is exciting. Charging Charm sounds intimidating. I am very excited for Resonant Guard since there are not to many valid defensive held items.

    DRAFT BATTLES LET'S GOOOOOOO!!!

    This is a standard for tournaments, so being able to play with these rules in normal ranked games sounds great. I also enjoy the strategy of banning/picking.

    I'm just happy that Mewtwo won't long range my short range Dragonite anymore.

    Why is there no general discussion forum for discussion suggestions for the website? What about one for generic Pokémon discussion?

    La verdad la presencia de dos pokemon legendarios en una partida es algo muy fuerte a mi parecer, al implementar las licencias EX's ayuda mucho al equilibrio del juego, se que muchos diran que no pero no ven el panorama completo, además el draft fue muy solicitado hace mucho saber que ya llega es una buena noticia.


    Gracias a toda la directiva de Pokémon unite en tomar por fin en cuenta las peticiones de los jugadores y espero que podamos seguir trabajando entre nosotros para mejorar el juego.
