Pokémon Unite Leak Reveals a Whole New Game
By JOHN BUDAY
Recently, Twitter users have been sharing leaks about “Pokémon Unite,” like @ElChicoEevee, who shared that Delphox and Espeon will reportedly join the game as fully playable Pokémon. Espeon — set to release on May 16 — appears to fling psychic orbs and wisps at its opponents, while Delphox — coming on June 9 — attacks with ranged fire moves.
Meanwhile, user @sobbleunitedtm described a new gameplay mode set in Mer Stadium, which will apparently include nine playable wild Pokémon that the player can catch and use. As noted by @ElChicoEevee, the CodeName under the game's map reads: "Catchmode," which seems to line up with a series of videos posted by @sobbleunitedtm showcasing several new controllable Pokémon in action.
The footage shows off Electrode, Ludicolo, Avalugg, Articuno, Zapdos, and Regigigas as playable Pokémon. The two leakers have clarified that these new Pokémon do not represent full-fledged characters, having two regular moves and no Unite move.
