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.

Avoid a Melee-Only 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.

Best Team Comp (September 2025)

Legendary Pokemon Team Comp

Lane Pokemon Pick & How to Use
Top IconTop
・Learn Whirpool and Ice Beam.
・Stay behind allies during fights and provide crowd control.

・Learn Sacred Fire and Flamethrower.
・Tank damage for the team while also providing a bit of fire power during fights.
・Use Rekindling Flame to revive fallen allies, especially Zacian and/or Suicune.
Jungle IconJungle
・Learn Razor Leaf and Leaf Blade for burst damage.
・Help out lanes and try to get knockouts and score points.
・Rotate to bottom lane when a Regi variant spawns and secure it.
・Utilize the Pokemon's speed and burst damage to hunt targets and cripple the enemy team.
Bot IconBot
・Learn Sacred Sword and Agility.
・Hold the lane as long as possible until the Regi variant spawns.
・Carry the team in the late game using raw damage.

・Learn Floral Healing and Magical Leaf.
・Attach to Zacian and provide assisstance during fights.

This is a powerful team comp revolving around three (3) legendary Pokemon; Zacian, Suicine, and Ho-Oh. It's well rounded but with more emphasis on damage.

Suicune and Ho-Oh at the Top Lane

Ho-Oh will accompany Suicune on the top lane. Ho-Oh will tank damage for Suicune while Suicune provides damage and crowd control from the backlines.

Leafeon Jungle

Leafeon will take the jungle to reach level 4 quickly. Once at level 4, the Pokemon will roam the map to help out lanes, get objectives, and knock out opponents.
Jungle Guide and Best Junglers

Zacian and Comfey at the Bottom Lane

Zacian and Comfey will go to the bottom lane. Once Comfey gets Floral Healing, it will attach to Zacian as they try to find knockouts for the team. Zacian will eventually carry the team in the late game.

Alternative Picks

Role Other Pokemon Options
Defender
Jungler
Healer/Supporter

For the Top Lane, any Defender that has an early progression will do the job.

For Junglers, Speedsters or Attackers that have their first move at level 5 or earlier can work.

For the Bottom Lane, any Supporter that can provide healing and buffs to Zacian and the team is a great alternative.

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.
