The first Pokémon Unite update rebalances most of the Pokémon

The first major update for Pokémon Unite rebalances most of the playable Pokémon.

The version 1.1.4 patch adds some bug and text fixes, and will also see a test release of a new Spectate feature for the next few days.

The main change, however, is the rebalancing of 14 of the 21 playable Pokémon, with various stats and moves tweaked to make fights more balanced.

Pokémon Unite was released on July 21 on Switch as a free-to-play title and will be coming to mobile devices in September with cross-play support confirmed.

The game is a co-operative team battle game developed by Tencent’s Timi Studio, which also created Activision’s Call of Duty Mobile, and sees two teams of five battling for control of a game map, similar to many popular MOBA titles.
