Pokémon UNITE Holiday Event

Snow will cover the map in Pokémon UNITE for the Holiday Festivities!

Start: December 9, 2021

End: January 16, 2022

Special Quick Mode - Shivre City

Dec. 15 - Jan. 16

Delibird will appear as a wild Pokémon in the Shivre City map, and may deliver presents which will allow players single use Items from nine Batte Items throughout your battles (i.e. you will not be able to select a Battle Item at the start of the Battle, but will be able to choose many single use Battle Items throughout your Battles).

Knocked Out Pokémon will turn into snowmen that cannot move. Basic attacks will make you jump in the air, while special moves will make you do fun poses.

Snowmen then return to their Pokémon form and join back the battle.

Articuno will also replace Avalugg for the duration of the event.
