How to Use Pursuit

Reposition from Behind Before Attacking

Pokemon UNITE - Absol Repositioning Before Attacking After Pursuit

Pursuit rewards those with a good sense for positioning and timing during matches. This move deals high damage when striking targets from behind. The cooldown is also reduced, making it almost impossible to escape from an Absol with this move. Opt for this move if you want to enhance your ganking efficiency instead.

Get Close with Sucker Punch

Starting the attack with a Sucker Punch allows Absol to get close enough for it to manuever behind the opponent. Doing this will make it easy to get the bonus cooldown reduction when hitting enemies from behind.
