This is a guide on critical hits dealt by Pokemon attacks in Pokemon UNITE. Read on to learn what critical hits are, how to increase your Pokemon's Critical hit Rate, and more!
List of Contents
Critical Damage is the bonus damage that is added to your attack when you land a critical hit. When you land a critical hit, the damage dealt will be doubled.
Critical Hit Rate is the likelihood that a critical hit will land. The higher your Pokemon's Critical Hit Rate, the more you will constantly land critical hits.

Attack +15 Critical-Hit Rate +2.1% After the Pokemon uses a move, its next basic attack deals a minimum of (10/15/20) damage. The higher the Pokemon's Attack, the more this damage increases. When this item is held by a melee Pokemon, this basic attack also decreases the movement speed of opposing Pokemon for a short time. |
Scope Lens and Razor Claw are the only two Held Item that increases you Critical Hit Rate and Damage during Matches. Equip this on a Pokemon with a high attack stat like Absol to take advantage of the bonus damage these items gives or fast attackers like Cinderace to constantly deal critical damage.
Scope Lens Effect and How to Get
Upgrading the Scope Lens will raise both Critical Hit Rate and Critical Damage. The higher the item's level grade, the more effective it will be in allowing you to deal critical attacks. You can upgrade it by using Item Enhancers, which can be bought from the store.
Increasing you Pokemon's level will also increase its critical rate and damage. Make sure to capture Wild Pokemon and score goals consistently to level up your Pokemon!
Using certain Pokemon moves can give you an additional buff that increases your critical rate. Moves like Night Slash or Cross Chop not only deals damage to the opponent, but will also temporarily boost your Pokemon's critical rate for a short amount of time. Aditionally, Some Pokemon have Passive Abilities that can raise their Critical Hit Rate when they meet specific conditions.
