Pokémon UNITE Ratings and Reviews

I am guessing that Pokémon UNITE is a fun game, but I have no idea. This is because the game will not let me play. I haven’t ever tried it, and until I can figure out why the game won’t let me play it, I never will try it. I have tried a lot of thing to get rid of it. I tried deleting the app and reinstalling it multiple times, I put the game on airplane mode and cellular data, and I checked if the servers were down (they weren’t). I can’t check if it won’t update, because it gets stuck at “checking update version”, even though it says it has loaded to 100%. My device meets the requirements( I have an iPhone 12 with 50 GB of storage), and I can’t lower the graphics, because I can’t get past the loading screen at the beginning. I don’t know how to clear caches of games on an iPhone. I believe this game would be fun, and I would prove it if I could get past the loading screen and start the tutorial. If anyone can help me with this issue, I would gladly listen to them. UPDATE: This game is really fun on the Switch, but my brother who has the exact same phone can play UNITE, yet my phone cannot. I’m still not sure why it won’t work on my iPhone specifically, but I will be playing it on the Switch. UPDATE #2: I did get it to work on my phone, and I’m level 12. I enjoy it on mobile, but the AFK players stink. It is really annoying when you get stuck with AFK or really bad players.

The game is amazing but there are some features that I’d like to see. Firstly, this is already a thing but during bot matches (matches where everyone else is a bot) you can choose a pokemon. But if that pokemon is recommended for a lane but you choose to go jungle (middle lane) a bot will still go to the jungle. I would like to see a change so that the bots will never go which lane you choose to go even if your pokemon is not recommended there. Second, I would like to see an option in the menu to choose held items and battle items for a pokemon as well as a personal emblem set for each one since you can only currently have 3 and I usually end up forgetting to switch when I play a different pokemon. It would be great if you could make specific emblems for each specific pokemom. Lastly, I would like to be able to choose from multiple builds when I make a pokemon such as Pikachu having 3 different builds where you can personalize items for which type of game style you would like to play that round. Also, I know the game is supposed to make money but there is just such a limited amount of skins and cosmetics for holowear tickets and fashion tickets, maybe they could be exchanged for other currencies or add more cosmetics for those to use. Thank You.

This game is ten out of ten and is great. Just matchmaking is way to unfair also losing one game in a row makes you play with bots which is annoying but I wanna talk about matchmaking. The thing is is that there is no actual determining on which ranks get played or not. Basically I just barely got into veteran all my team is veteran 1 or 2, while the enemy team is like veteran 5 or maybe even ultra, it tells that way because i have low ranked teamsters that I like to say don’t know what a Pokémon is but they just don’t know the concept of the game, unlike my opponents. Also I think it’s extremely unfair if your solo queuing and a random 5 man, (team of 5) shows up and destroys your team because they have coordination. I know that this is definitely not the games fault and just the fact that the game is trying to match make with other players of the same rank but I mean, it would be nice to not get 5 maned in solo queue. The last thing is that different ranked players should not be able to play with each other. I think that it’s dumb because you’ll have like your professional big brother playing with his younger brother who doesn’t know what the A button does. Like I mean this is what casual is for, not ranked. But ya this game is great and I really hope that you will fix matchmaking.

This Pokemon this is FIRE its 100% My pokemon game i have played in my life its super fun and easy and i want 4 more Pokemon to join the games roster so lets go! Number 1 Vanilluxe I want Vanilluxe to be added in the game i love this pokemon so much I really don’t know why people hate this pokemon! please add Vanilluxe one day! and it should be a ranged special attack pokemon with attacker as its class and it would be very good at freezing opponents Number 2 Dusknoir I think Dusknoir would be pretty fun to play as it could be a physical melee attacker thats gonna be a all rounder number 3 Torterra I know it be a BLAST to play as this huge turtle with a tree on its back it should be a physical, melee attacker and it would be a defender class number 4 Darkrai My favorite dark type I would LOVE to play as him and have him in the game he would be a special attacker and i want to see him have melee and ranged attacks kind of like Grenninja for his melee attacks he would just attack with his claws thats how his gonna fight up close and for his ranged attacks he would shoot dark energy and he would be a attacker class and finally thats it! and I would love to see these, Pokémon be added in Pokémon Unite especially Darkrai and Vanilluxe I would be very happy if they be added! thanks for this amazing game!

I’d like to start off by saying this game is extremely fun and I do enjoy playing it and I’ve evangelized my friends into it as well. In season one I shot up to masters 1800 so I don believe I have a decent understanding of the nuances and complexities of this game. The game is intuitive and easy to pick up though I do think it’s no truly optimized for mobile, and the cast of characters are ‘t just the extremely popular Pokemon more fringe ones do appear. The playstyles can feel a bit samey but the diverging move paths help with that. I’d like to preface this next statement by saying that the team behind this game has worked to fix this issue but the attempts are lackluster and halfhearted. The game suffers from the problem of Pay 2 Win elements, in the case of pokemon unite it isn’t egregious or even apparent in many cases but the element of item upgrading as well as the recently added boost emblem rolling can be accelerated through payment allowing players to have a stark advantage over others, as you play more of the game these issues balance out but if you pick up new pokemon that need new items this issue can arise again. Overall it’s a fun game with a dev team that brings fresh and interesting features all the time but be aware that you may find it slightly unfair once you get moved from bot matches to real lobbies

First of all, Lucario’s evolution is missing. If Charmander, Squirtle, and Bulbasaur have to evolve, why doesn’t he? Riolu is the evolution for Lucario, but yet he doesn’t show up. 2. The characters are balanced okay, but if I am being honest, Pikachu is terribly overpowered. Every time I eat the yellow fruits near the enemy goals, if a pikachu is in the game, he one-shots me at full health, and I get eliminated. 3. My favorite evolution line is Eevee, so for somebody like me, I can’t do without all of them. This game is lovely, but it’s missing Vaporeon, Flareon, and Jolteon altogether. Like I said, I love Eevee, but it’s just hard for me to feel natural when some are missing. 4. I can never obtain the currency used to buy Outifts that isn’t tickets, and I can’t buy them. I feel like that currency should not exist. If the only way you can get them ( That I know of ) is with real money, I don’t think they should be in the game. Perhaps make them able to get with events and Unite battles, then I would drop the idea of removing them all together. I really want all of the eeveelutions Unite licenses, and the outfits, so Please make this more possible, without having to use money for a online currency. Thank you for reading this and have a good day, God bless you :)

Game is good. But after playing this for a few months there are things that need improvements on. 1) Chat system needs to be more accessible besides just the brief moment before match matching. There needs to be more communication options, or chat abilities besides microphone within the game and after. To players during and after the game. This is the number one frustration I faced along with all the friends I’ve invited to play. Game feels too claustrophobic with the limited chat abilities you have. Even chatting to friends in text is ignored because it’s so hidden away. Make it more pop. There’s just too many steps to go through to even chat with players. 2) There needs to be more information displayed after the game ends. Honor system, chat abilities (again), ability to see other players ranks on the spot besides needing to go into individual matches and checking individually. That’s hugely inefficient. 3) Bots. Addressed enough but understandable. However it gets boring. 4) Game feels too confined. There should be more UI buttons that make it more accessible to address chat, profile checking, and more open access issues listed above instead of these event buttons and gifts and whatnot, that don’t matter. Otherwise game has so much potential but feels lackluster and unrewarding to play. I play less and less because it just feels like I’m playing by myself.

I really love this game it’s extremely entertaining and fun, but there are a few things I would like to address. First of all if you love good graphics. I think this game has really nice graphics and cool maps you battle on. Second is actually pretty big and annoying for me. I HATE how some Pokémon’s outfits cost an in game currency called Aeus gems. Which you can only buy with REAL MONEY. So I have a Pokémon called Cinderace and you CAN’T buy it an outfit for him because it costs real money. It is super tempting to buy the gems. So keep this in mind if you have a young kid. Third is not bad at all I just want to address it. So it IS and online game so you do play WITH REAL PLAYERS. There is a microphone button so you can hear and talk to your teammates, but you CAN turn it off. So yet again if you have a young kid be sure to turn that off. You can type messages to your friends also. I recommend ages 8 and up just because if you leave it mid battle it WILL take points away. To where you can’t play and online battles. (Keep in mind that you can always gain points back again if you battle fairly) And because you NEED TO KNOW how to play. It is very annoying to play with people who have no idea how to play! It is super fun and I love all the new Eeveelutions they put in it. It is a awesome game you don’t want to miss!

I like the game a lot, but it is really annoying when you have to go afk, like if your parents call you to do something or you suddenly have to go somewhere and turn off your phone. Also if you have parental restrictions that take away/block your apps (*cough cough* OurPact) then it’ll still count for being idle in battle. I mean, I don’t personally decide to put down my phone and choose to do nothing. I recently had to go idle because my dad called me to help him grab something, and I was away just long enough for it to count as being idle in battle and take away 5 fair play points. These deducted points got me down to below 70 points, so I couldn’t switch from standard battles to other things like ranked and custom. I can never win standard battles, so this is especially irritating for me. I’m pretty sure the only reason for this is to make sure people don’t cheat or hack in games, because being idle is kind of a stupid reason to deduct points. Most times, we don’t have any choice, and if you go idle just out of spite to be a jerk, then your not benefiting yourself either, so most people don’t go idle on purpose to annoy others. So my suggestion is to get rid of the fair play point system and ban the people that actually hack and cheat and stuff. Other than that, I do really like the game.

The game may have received heavy cosmetic changes, bug fixes, and other patches but the one thing I feel isn’t being properly addressed is how unbalanced the game is. First you are paired in Expert League with people who play as though they were in Beginner League. How do players of that skill level manage to get to Expert and they play how they play? Then more times than not you face against others who should be in the same League as you but some how feel as though they are 1 to 2 Leagues higher. Regardless, it’s pretty bad when your wins are out weighted by your losses more times than not in ranked. Fun game so far but if that is how ranked game play is going to be moving forward I might as well not continue to play because I will only experience more stress than fun at the end of the day. I’m the type of gamer that likes to enjoy every aspect of a game, not just little bits and parts. After all, even if you don’t pay a dime of earned money to play your time still has value and is still an investment in itself, so the game is still technically costing you something. I’ve been a supporter of this Franchise since 96 and have enjoyed almost every aspect of it down to the cards themselves. I want this game to work and I want to enjoy it. Show me that this game can be worth my time Pokemon Company. Let’s start improving on the balancing.
