Two Defenders for Strong Teamfights

This team comp is heavily inspired by team Nemesis' lineup during the 2024 March Finals (NA) where they always picked two (2) Defenders in their team. This allowed them to have strong frontliners during teamfight, which is hard to break.

Pokemon which have three evolution stages tend to take longer than others to reach their full potential. When three or more of these Pokemon are on a team, it can be difficult for the team to gain traction in the early game. Watch what Pokemon your teammates have picked and avoid stacking too many late bloomers on a team.

It's difficult to maintain a consistent source of damage when your team can only attack up close and personal. Try to make a team with at least one Pokemon who can deal reliable damage from a ranged distance.

It's best to have a good mix of Attack-type and Sp. Atk.-type Pokemon on your team since some Pokemon have different values for Sp. Def and Defense, making them vulnerable against certain Pokemon types.

・Stick with your allies and roam the map for objectives.

・Reach level 7 as fast as possible and learn Surf and Hydro Pump for more crowd control.
・Hold the bottom lane with Mew as long as possible to have a good position when securing the Regi variant objective.

This is a tank-heavy and teamfight-oriented lineup inspired by team Nemesis' winning team comp in the 2024 March Finals (NA) tournament. It's centered on having two (2) tanky Defenders with strong crowd control moves to help the team win teamfights and secure objectives.

Hoopa will act as the hard-support for the team, providing quick rotations via Hyperspace Hole and Rings Unbound to secure objectives. Leafeon and Mew will act as the team's primary damage dealers, bursting down opponents with their moves. Trevenant and Blastoise will be the team's frontliners and tanks.

Trevenant and Hoopa at the Top Lane

Hoopa will accompany Trevenant in the top lane. Hoopa will utilize Hyperspace Hole to quickly rotate lanes and secure objectives along with Trevenant.

Mew and Blastoise at the Bottom Lane

Mew and Blastoise will go to the bottom lane. Mew will apply pressure using its offensive moves to delay the opponent's progress as long as possible. Meanwhile, Blastoise will tank as much damage as it can while providing offense using Hydro Pump and Surf.

How to Build a Team

In general, when putting together a team composition of your own, it's good to have the following team balance in mind.

  • One Tank
  • Two Damage Dealers
  • One Support
  • One Jungler

Tanks

Pokemon UNITE - Defenders.png

The Tank will be the one that soaks up the damage. They should have high defense so that they can survive being attacked by enemies, and they should have skills that hinder or disable enemies, while not as much as the support, it would still be useful in team fights.

Another good thing they should have is the ability to initiate as they'll be the ones taking most of the skills when they initiate. This isn't a hard requirement but it's nice to have.

Defender Pokemon play this role well, but some All-Rounders can be built as tanks.

Damage Dealers

Pokemon UNITE - Damage Dealers.png

Damage dealers need to be able to deal a burst of damage, able to take out enemies quickly. They will be your primary source of stopping power, which is why you can have two of them.

They don't need to be tanky (although depending on the character, they could be), and they don't need a lot of stun because that's the support's job, so they should have primarily damage dealing skills.

In the laning phase, they'll be split up, one on top and one on the bottom, so the other two roles can each look out for them and help them achieve their kills.

Attackers fill this role nicely, but the role could reasonably be filled by All-Rounders or Speedsters.

Supporters

Pokemon UNITE - Supporter.png

Support characters should have disabling skills, debuffs for the enemy, for buffs for the team to be effective.

Their job is to be with others and make sure they have the openings to take out Pokemon from the enemy team. Supporters are rarely useful on their own, and they should focus on disabling the damage dealers from the other team.

The best characters for this class are the Support Pokemon.

Junglers

Pokemon UNITE - Jungler.png

The Jungler is a unique role that can make or break the game. They don't follow the lanes unlike the other four, rather they head into the central part of the map, which we'll call the Jungle.

They gain the most experience due to not having to share with another player, and because of their unique position, they can affect both lanes by ganking, which is the term for sneaking into a lane and attacking the enemy. This dictates the pace of the lane and determines when objectives can be taken. This is why having high movement speed can help so that you can travel between lanes and clear the jungle quickly.

They also manage to get buffs from defeating Ludicolo and Bouffalant from their respective sides of the jungle.

Speedsters make great junglers, more often than not. Some All-Rounders can be Junglers as well if they're mobile.
Jungle Guide and Best Junglers

What Makes A Good Team Comp?

An example of good team composition is well-balanced, meaning everyone's roles cover for each other's weaknesses.

Their skills must complement each other and make them more effective as a whole rather than acting as five individual units.
