Balance Adjustments

Changes have been made to some Pokémon stats and moves to adjust the balance of Unite Battles.

 

【Mewtwo X】

• Future Sight

Cooldown: 10s → 9s

• Recover

Cooldown: 10s → 9s
Movement speed increase: 20% → 30%

• Psystrike

Damage: 10% increase

• Teleport

Cooldown: 10s → 9s

Since the cooldowns of its moves were overly long relative to the effects provided, making it difficult to perform consistently, certain moves have been buffed with a primary focus on shortening move cooldowns.

 

【Zoroark】

• Stats

HP: 3030–6200 → 3030–6400
Defense: 55–260 → 55–300
Sp. Def: 45–180 → 45–210

• Shadow Claw

Duration the opposing Pokémon are thrown: 0.4s → 0.5s

• Night Slash

Cooldown: 8s → 7s

• Cut

Damage: 15% increase

Since Zoroark took longer to deal its full damage compared to other Speedster Pokémon and was frequently knocked out by opponents before finishing its combo, its durability stats and certain moves have been buffed so that it can complete its attacks and perform more effectively in battle.

 

【Alolan Raichu】

• Stored Power

Attack speed increase: 35% → 45%

• Stored Power+

Opponent Sp. Def reduction: 5% → 8%

• Psychic

Damage: 10% increase
Cooldown: 9s → 8s

Because its ability to secure KOs on opponents was notably lacking compared to other Attacker Pokémon, certain moves have been buffed to slightly increase its burst damage output.

 

【Meganium】

• Synthesis

Cooldown: 6s → 5s

• Grass Knot

Cooldown: 7s → 6s

Due to a lack of healing capability in the early game of Unite Battles and hindrance capability against opponents in the late game, the cooldowns of Synthesis and Grass Knot have been shortened.

 

【Palkia】

• Basic Attack

Hit detection distance: 2.5m → 3m

• Dragon Claw

Start-up time and recovery time of the first hit have been reduced to speed up execution
The recovery time of the second hit has been reduced

Palkia faced difficulty performing in battle because the start-up time and recovery time of Dragon Claw was too long and the hit detection distance of its basic attacks was too short, making it challenging to land attacks or moves after closing the distance to opponents. Adjustments have been made so that attacks land more smoothly and reliably.

 

【Zacian】

• Ability: Intrepid Sword

Additional damage of boosted attacks: 2%/3%/3%/4% of the opposing Pokémon’s max HP → 1%/2%/2%/3% of the opposing Pokémon’s max HP

• Sacred Sword

Damage: 8% increase

Since the additional damage of boosted attacks after charging its sword with Aeos Energy was exceedingly high—making Zacian disproportionately dominant in 1-on-1 fights—the additional damage of boosted attacks has been decreased. Additionally, since Sacred Sword lacked sufficient damage despite having a long delay before dealing damage, its damage has been increased.

 

【Feraligatr】

• Crunch

Damage: 8% decrease

When landing Crunch twice in succession, the damage dealt was extremely high, leaving opponents with almost no room to counterattack. To address this overly oppressive capability, the overall damage of Crunch has been tuned down.

 

【Mega Lucario】

• Ability: Adaptability

Attack increase when landing a move on an opposing Pokémon: 5% increase (max 10 stacks) → 4% increase (max 10 stacks)

• Unite Move: Aura Cannon

Mega Evolution duration after using Unite Move: 25s → 20s

The overwhelming offensive power and duration of Mega Evolution were excessively strong in the current Unite Battle environment. Therefore, the duration of Mega Evolution and the Attack boost granted by its Ability have been reduced.

 

【Yveltal】

• Stats

HP: 3360–7400 → 3320–7000
Defense: 76–326 → 72–300
Sp. Def: 76–330 → 72–300

For an Attacker Pokémon that excels at dealing damage from mid-to-long range, its durability stats were excessively high. Therefore, its durability stats have been reduced.

 

【Alcremie】

• Recover

HP recovery: 10% decrease

• Sweet Scent

Damage: 15% decrease

Because the healing performance of Recover was exceptionally high compared to other Supporter Pokémon, and the damage output of Sweet Scent was excessively high for a Supporter, both moves have been tuned down.

 

 

Bug Fixes

The following bugs have been fixed:

    • Fixed a bug where performing a basic attack while using Yveltal’s Dark Pulse would cause Yveltal to face the target of the basic attack, shifting the direction of Dark Pulse away from its intended alignment.
    • Fixed a bug where the Defense and Sp. Def increase effect would fail to trigger when Palkia’s Dragon Claw+ hit Mimikyu and the damage was negated by its Ability Disguise.
    • Fixed a bug where extended Hyper Voice might fail to hit while Skeledirge’s Ability Blaze is on cooldown.
    • Fixed a bug where canceling the first hit of Tyranitar’s Ancient Power would cause the hindrance resistance state to persist for a short duration.
    • Fixed a bug where using Inteleon’s Snipe Shot immediately without charging would prevent the expanded vision field from returning to normal.
    • Fixed a bug where activating the first hit of Urshifu’s Unite Move: Flowing Strikes under specific conditions would decrease the hit count added when landing boosted attacks.
    • Fixed a bug where Empoleon could retain its boosted attack stacks if a move or Shedinja Doll was activated immediately after a boosted attack.
    • Fixed a bug where activating a move in a different direction immediately after Empoleon’s boosted attack would cause Empoleon to face the direction of the boosted attack while using the move.
    • Fixed a bug where the damage dealt to an opposing Pokémon would vary depending on the relative positions of Latios and Latias when both cast their Unite Moves on the same target.
