Another Pokémon is ready to join your Pokémon
UNITE ranks now that Decidueye has swooped into the game. Decidueye is a
Ranged Attacker, so you’ll be able to get the drop on your opponents from afar.
As you would expect, this Pokémon begins each match as the lovable Rowlet, but
it evolves into Dartrix at Lv. 5 and Decidueye at Lv. 7.
Decidueye’s basic attacks increase in speed for a short time
after one hits. This effect can stack, and with every third activation of this
effect, basic attacks become boosted attacks for a short time. These boosted
attacks fire more quills, but the damage dealt by each quill is decreased. Long
Reach, Decidueye’s Ability, deals increased damage to distant opposing Pokémon.
At Lv. 1 and Lv. 3, Rowlet can learn Leafage and Astonish.
Leafage pelts leaves in the designated direction, dealing
damage to opposing Pokémon hit by them. For a short time after using the move, Rowlet’s
Attack and basic attack speed are increased.
Astonish deals damage to opposing Pokémon and decreases
their movement speed for a short time.
You won’t be able to upgrade either of these attacks until
Rowlet evolves first into Dartrix at Lv. 5 and then into Decidueye at Lv. 7. At
this point, Leafage can be upgraded into one of two moves: Razor Leaf or
Spirit Shackle.
Razor Leaf summons whirling razor leaves. For a short time
after using the move, Decidueye’s Attack and basic attack speed are increased. In
addition, Decidueye’s basic attacks can target multiple opposing Pokémon for a
short time. This move can also be upgraded to increase Decidueye’s basic attack
damage the higher the opposing Pokémon’s remaining HP is.
Spirit Shackle charges power before firing quills in the
designated direction. The damage dealt by the quills increases the longer power
is charged, but Decidueye’s movement speed is decreased while charging. If this
move hits after its power is charged to the maximum, it can stitch the opposing
Pokémon’s shadow to the ground. The affected Pokémon will receive damage upon
moving a set distance from that location, and its movement speed will be
decreased for a short time. Upgrading Spirit Shackle will deal increased damage
to opposing Pokémon with low remaining HP.
At Lv. 8, Astonish can be upgraded to either Leaf Storm
or Shadow Sneak.
Leaf Storm creates a tempest of sharp leaves, dealing damage
to opposing Pokémon it hits and decreasing their movement speed for a short
time. At point-blank range, it also shoves opposing Pokémon it hits. When
upgraded, Leaf Storm increases the length of time that the movement speed of
opposing Pokémon is decreased.
Shadow Sneak creates a shadow that takes hold of one
opposing Pokémon in the area of effect, dealing damage to it and decreasing its
movement speed and Defense for a short time. It also increases Decidueye’s movement
speed for a short time. Upgrading Shadow Sneak will further decrease your
opponent’s Defense when the move hits.
You opponents will be wondering who’s there when Decidueye unleashes its Unite Move, Nock Nock, which it
learns at Lv. 9. Nock Nock fires quills in the designated direction, dealing damage to opposing
Pokémon. It ends by unleashing a particularly large quill that deals damage to
all opposing Pokémon it hits. Nock Nock even deals increased damage if the
opposing Pokémon’s remaining HP is low. While using this move, Decidueye
becomes immune to hindrances but is unable to move.
If you want
to take on your opponents while maintaining some distance, Decidueye could
prove invaluable to your team. You can head over to the Unite Battle
Committee shop and get Decidueye’s
Unite license now.
