Utility Build Explanation

Build Explanation
This is a flexible build with a good balance of offense and defense. It's centered on healing allies and damaging enemies with Pollen Puff and Cotton Spore.
· Muscle Band improves Eldegoss' attacks via increased damage and attack speed, which also synergizes well with the Pokemon's Boosted Attacks.
· Exp. Share is Eldegoss' main support item, making leveling up for itself and its lane partner faster in the early game. It also increases the Pokemon's movement speed for better mobility.
· Buddy Barrier makes Eldegoss more durable via an HP boost. It also serves as a teamfight tool.
· However, Rapid-Fire Scarf can be a great replacement for Muscle Band, giving Eldegoss a massive attack speed boost every few seconds, which also goes well with its Boosted Attacks.
· Eject Button gives Eldegoss a quick repositioning tool to set up Cotton Spore, but it's also a great mobility tool in general.
· The build's Boost Emblem loadout should consist of 6 Green Emblems to maximize Eldegoss' move damage and 6 Black Emblems for cooldown reduction.
· This can be achieved by equipping at least 3 Emblems that are both green and black.
· Equip Emblems that improve Sp. Atk to maximize Eldegoss' move healing and damage.
· Attack, and Critical-Hit Rate can be freely traded for the other stats.

Utility Build Damage and Healing Test

(@ Lvl 15)
Boosted Attack
(@ Lvl 15)
Muscle Band 306 615

Since it's a flexible build, equipping items that will maximize one aspect of Eldegoss is the ideal item combination. Exp. Share and Buddy Barrier are core items for the build, leaving only one (1) item for consideration.

As the results show, for a build focusing more on attack damage, equipping Muscle Band will produce the best outcome for Eldegoss. The item's HP-based bonus damage and increased attack speed goes well with Eldegoss' Boosted Attack effect.

As for alternatives, replacing Muscle Band with Rapid-Fire Scarf would be the best option. Although the item does less damage than Muscle Band, its rapid attack speed bonus makes up for it in terms of DPS.

For a build focused more on move damage, equipping Choice Specs will generate the best results.

For alternatives, replacing Choice Specs with Slick Spoon would be the best choice.

On the other hand, for better healing, equipping Sp. Atk. Specs will maximize the Pokemon's healing. However, it does require Eldegoss to fully-stack the item first to get the maximum healing.

For alternatives, replacing Sp. Atk. Specs with Wise Glasses would be the ideal choice. The item produced the second best healing results and is only slightly lower than Sp. Atk. Specs.


These damage tests are conducted in Practice Mode with Goodra as the Training Partner. The Pokemon is set to level 15 and has no items equipped. The results are taken by substracting the Pokemon's max HP and its HP after taking damage.

The healing results are taken from the floating green texts above the Pokemon when it's healed.

Offense Build Explanation

Build Explanation
This is a high offense build centered on utilizing Eldegoss' Boosted Attack effect, increasing the Pokemon's attacks on inflicted targets, and the movement speed bonus from Leaf Tornado and Cotton Spore. However, Eldegoss won't be able to support its allies through healing and shielding anymore with this build.
· Muscle Band improves Eldegoss' attacks via increased damage and attack speed, which also synergizes well with the Pokemon's Boosted Attacks.
· Rapid-Fire Scarf further improves Eldegoss' attacks through a massive attack speed boost every few seconds.
· Focus Band increases Eldegoss' durability through increased defenses and a healing tool.
· However, Slick Spoon can be a great replacement for Rapid-Fire Scarf, giving more emphasis on move damage.
· X Attack provides Eldegoss with an active source of damage boost whenever it needs it, particularly for its attacks.
· The build's Boost Emblem loadout should consist of 6 Green Emblems to maximize Eldegoss' move damage and 6 Black Emblems for cooldown reduction.
· This can be achieved by equipping at least 3 Emblems that are both green and black.
· Equip Emblems that improve Sp. Atk to maximize Eldegoss' overall damage.
· Attack, and Critical-Hit Rate can be freely traded for the other stats.

Since the build is centered on Eldegoss' attacks, equipping items that will maximize it is the ideal item combination. Focus Band is a core item for the build, leaving only two (2) items for consideration.

As the results show, Muscle Band and Rapid-Fire Scarf will produce the best outcome for Eldegoss. The item combination generated the best results for Standard Attack while still having a decent score for Boosted Attack.

As for alternatives, replacing Rapid-Fire Scarf with Slick Spoon would be the ideal choice. The item combination has only a slightly lower Standard Attack result but scored the highest for Boosted Attack. It also improves Eldegoss' move damage by default thanks to Slick Spoon's Sp. Atk. bonus and defense penetration effect.


These damage tests are conducted in Practice Mode with Goodra as the Training Partner. The Pokemon is set to level 15 and has no items equipped. The results are taken by substracting the Pokemon's max HP and its HP after taking damage.

Cotton Spore enables Eldegoss to dish out more damage during teamfights. It also functions as a mobility tool.

Learning Leaf Tornado over Pollen Puff trades healing for utility, giving the team the opportunity to traverse areas faster. For a more offensive plystyle, learn Cotton Spore together with Pollen Puff and take advantage of Eldegoss' ranged attacks.

How to Play Eldegoss

Jump to Section

Be Aware of your Positioning

Pokemon UNITE - Eldegoss Getting Into Position

Since Eldegoss is a Support Pokemon, you will have to play it passively and aid your allies if you want to be effective in combat. The trick to fully utilizing Eldegoss' abilities lies in proper positioning and awareness at all times. Knowing when to stay back or get closer to the fight is paramount as this enables you to keep your allies topped off with shields, heals, or movement speed bonuses. Proper positioning also allows you to punish the opposing team with slows and long-range attacks that deal consistent damage that can pile up if left uncontested.

Stick to Allies that Deal Damage

Eldegoss' damage is lackluster if it is alone, so you will need to stick with allies that can compensate. You can't deal much damage yourself, but you can help Pokemon that can deal damage stay alive! Your heals, shields, and movement speed buffs will give them the edge they need to get ahead of the enemy.

Know Which Damaging Move to Pick

Pokemon UNITE - Eldegoss Defending Bot Lane

Eldegoss will get its offense move upgrade when it reaches level 4. From here, Eldegoss' offensive capabilities improve, but the damage you get out of them is far from the high-caliber strikes found in Attacker Pokemon. Their strengths will lie in their utility and how you use them to benefit the whole team.

Get Pollen Puff for Continous Heal

Pollen Puff is a flexible move that gives you consistent healing, allowing you to keep yourself and your teammates alive for much longer in fights. Additionally, the move can deal AoE damage if more than one enemy is close enough to the blast radius.

Although, compared to Leaf Tornado that gets the effect immediately, Pollen Puff has a delay before it detonates, so be sure to take note of its activation time to avoid misses.

Pollen Puff: Eldegoss Move Effect and Cooldown

Leaf Tornado for Movement Speed

Learning Leaf Tornado allows you to support your team by giving them a boost in movement speed when they step into the affected area. This is great for giving Defenders or Attackers a way to get ahead in position. It is also a good disengage tool if you need to escape from a losing fight.

Compared to Pollen Puff, Leaf Tornado is more straightforward and can be used as a standard, long-range, damaging move with an extra effect.

Leaf Tornado: Eldegoss Move Effect and Cooldown

Support Allies in Lanes

Pokemon UNITE - Eldegoss Supporting Allies in Lane.png

Eldegoss strength comes from its ability to support its teammates. So, you will want to lane with someone in the Top or Bottom paths and take advantage of your support moveset. Though both moves are decent choices, they are fundamentally different and have distinct effects that can help you realize the playstyle you want Eldegoss to have.

Get Cotton Guard for AoE Shields

Cotton Guard gives you and your teammates a decent amount of shields. It is a straightforward support move that can increase your team's survivability during crucial fights. Outside of combat, the shields produced by the move are converted into HP if it does not get depleted, making it a great utility move you can activate all the time!

Cotton Guard: Eldegoss Move Effect and Cooldown

Get Cotton Spore for AoE Damage

Cotton Spore is an offense-focused, AoE move that has Eldegoss deal damage within a wide area. The move turns Eldegoss into aggressive support, which can contribute to the overall damage output of the team. Moreover, the stun caused by the explosion can open up opponents for your allies to follow through with attacks!

Cotton Spore: Eldegoss Move Effect and Cooldown

Stay Close to Your Allies During Clashes

Since you will spend most of your time supporting your allies during team clashes, it is best to stick to high-endurance Pokemon like Defenders or All-Rounders. You will want to be near them and keep them alive as long as possible so that they can maintain front-line aggression when pushing lanes.

Save Cotton Cloud Crash for Teamfights

Cotton Cloud Crass is one of your most powerful tools, helping you survive longer, disable enemy Pokemon, and heal your teammates. Make sure to save it for team fights to make get the most value out of the move. It also works as a great counter to any AoE Unite Move your opponent's deal as you can recover lost HP in an instant.

Progression and Leveling Guide

Level Objectives
1 - 3 • Learn Leafage first to help your ally farm Wild Pokemon faster.
• Stay near the goal zone at all times while utilizing Eldegoss' ranged attacks to constantly pressure opponents from afar.
• Once you reach level 3 and get Synthesis, provide constant support to your ally when they need it. Work around the move's long cooldown by activating it every time you and your teammate get enough damage to keep the uptime consistent.
4 - 6 • Start to get aggressive with the help of your ally once you have Leaf Tornado or Pollen Puff learned. Activate the moves every time they are not on cooldown.
• Reach level 6 before or when boss Pokemon spawns to get access to Eldegoss' support moves. Having these learned early increases your team's survivability during coming team fights.
• Help your allies secure Regieleki and/or Regice, Registeel, or Regirock. Be sure to avoid getting caught in the front lines regardless of your playstyle.
• Continue farming for EXP with your allies. It is important that you do not seek out and initiate fights. Instead, wait for your allies to lead the charge before getting aggressive with your moves.
7 - 9 • At this point, you should always stick to your allies, especially when they are trying to push lanes.
• Reach level 9 and learn Eldegoss' Unite move, Cotton Cloud Crash. Use it to get an advantage during team fights by healing your allies and shoving your opponents. You can even use the move to steal objectives.
10+ • Stick with your allies to hunt targets, secure objectives, and push lanes to level up
• Try to reach at least level 13 before or when Rayquaza spawns for a fully-upgraded moveset
• Make sure you have Cotton Cloud Crash available when Rayquaza spawns
• Help your allies win a team fight and secure Rayquaza

Best Teammates for Eldegoss

Pokemon Explanation
Gengar ImageGengar Can keep Gengar alive in fights
Gengar has one of the strongest burst combos in the game. Unfortunately it is also one of the most fragile. Having an Eldegoss shield and heal a Gengar as it goes in to burst down the enemy Attackers will help keep Gengar alive to knockout at least one Pokemon
Cramorant ImageCramorant Can patch up for Cramorant's lack of survivability and mobility
Cramorant is a strong Attacker that lacks survivability and mobility. With Eldegoss supporting Cramorant, you cover its weaknesses and become a deadlier force.
Snorlax ImageSnorlax Can make Snorlax unstoppable
Snorlax is already one of the toughest to take out Pokemon in the game, with Eldegoss by its side, it can become an unstoppable force.
