Psy-Shooter Build Explanation

Build Explanation
This build is centered on stunning and bursting down targets from the backlines using Psyshock and Psybeam.
· Wise Glasses provides Espeon with a large amount Sp. Atk. thanks to its percentage bonus.
· Choice Specs gives Espeon more Sp. Atk. stat and increases the Pokemon's minimum move damage.
· Slick Spoon allows Espeon to ignore a portion of its target's Sp. Def., especially against high-durability Pokemon. It also supplies HP and more Sp. Atk.
· However, Energy Amplifier is great replacement for Slick Spoon, giving Espeon more firepower when it activates Psychic Solare.
· Eject Button gives Espeon a repositioning tool to set up its moves or to keep its distance from enemies.
· The build's Boost Emblem loadout should consist of 6 Green Emblems for more damage and 4 White Emblems additional HP.
· Equip Emblems that improve Sp. Atk. to maximize Espeon's damage output.
· Attack, Critical-Hit Rate, Sp. Def., and Defense can be freely traded for the other stats.

Since the build is centered on bursting down targets with Psyshock and Psybeam, equipping items that provide the highest passive damage boost is the ideal item combination.

As the results show, Choice Specs, Wise Glasses, and Slick Spoon will yield the best possible outcome for Espeon. The item combination produced decent results without the need for extra tasks.

As for alternatives, replacing Slick Spoon with Energy Amplifier would be the ideal choice. The item combination produced the second best results but is only marginally lower than the top result. However, it does require Espeon to use Psychic Solare first to trigger the damage boost.


These damage tests are conducted using the Training Dummy in Practice Mode. The results are taken from the Total Damage data.

Espeon Best Items & Moveset

Best Held Items

Item Explanation
Buddy Barrier.pngBuddy Barrier Ideally, Psychic Solare should be used in the middle of a team clash to get the most value. Buddy Barrier ensures Espeon gets protected during and after the unite move so it can continue fighting.
Energy Amplifier.pngEnergy Amplifier The blast from Psychic Solare is affected by the damage increase Energy Amplifier provides. This makes the move act like a finisher.
Focus Band.pngFocus Band Focus Band offers more durability allowing Espeon to get extra aggressive during the early game. This helps it stay in the fight longer as it farms Wild Pokemon.
Wise Glasses.pngWise Glasses Wise Glasses further increases Espeon's already high Sp. Attack stat. This allows the Pokemon to deal extra damage when it uses its moves.
Choice Specs.pngChoice Specs Choice Specs adds bonus damage as you land your moves. It also adds a decent amount of Sp. Attack stat.
Slick Spoon.pngSlick Spoon Slick Spoon improves Espeon's burst damage by ignoring a portion of its target's Sp. Def. stat, especially against high durability Pokemon. It also provides increased Sp. Atk. and HP, which are essential to the Pokemon.

List of Held Items

Best Battle Items

Item Explanation
Eject Button.pngEject Button Eject Button is primarily used to reposition when Espeon gets overwhelmed. It is also helpful for chasing down fleeing targets.
X Speed.pngX Speed X Speed offers a more consistent way of increasing Espeon's movement speed. This compensates for Espeon's lack of mobility moves.

List of Battle Items

Best Moveset

Move Explanation
Psyshock ImagePsyshock Psyshock can quickly pressure an opponent's HP with one single hit. Moreover, its stun effect when you get to hit all the projectiles is great for setting up the killing blow!
Psybeam ImagePsybeam Because the damage scales with the target's HP, Psybeam is you go-to move for facing high HP opponents. It is especially useful for securing objectives.

The moveset above deals the most damage without the need to set up. When going for Future Sight, you can pair it with any move and still take advantage of the cooldown reduction. If you want a more direct way of dealing burst damage, learn Psyshock. Otherwise, learn Stored Power instead if you want a more passive way of dealing damage.

How to Play Espeon

Jump to Section

Watch the Boosted Attack Gauge

Espeon's boosted attack works differently than other Pokemon. It has a gauge that fills up over time rather than triggering for every certain numbers of attacks. Keep a close watch on your boosted attack gauge before engaging.

Watch Out for High Mobility Pokemon

Espeon's weakness are high-mobility Pokemon like Gengar since they can easily dodge Espeon's moves and can burst it down quickly. Watch out for these Pokemon during fights as they'll surely target you first.

Keep a Safe Distance

Utilize Espeon's long-ranged moves to deal damage and provide disables for your team from a safe distance. You can also stay behind durable teammates like Snorlax, letting them take the frontlines and attract the enemies' attention while you bombard them with your moves.

Get Aggressive Once You Get Pyschic Solare

Espeon can learn its Unite Move earlier than most, at level 8. Utilize your early Unite Move by roaming the map and taking teamfights. Your team will most likely have the advantage during teamfights since the enemy probably won't have their Unite Move yet.

Psychic Solare: Espeon Move Effect and Cooldown

Attack Targets Marked with Future Sight

You can reduce Future Sight's cooldown each time you attack a target marked with it. Utilize this mechanic to (potentially) cast Future Sight infinitely.

Pokemon UNITE - Psychic Solare Setup
This is a simple setup to Psychic Solare. Start by stunning enemies using Psyshock, then immediately following up with Psybeam. Finish off the combo with Psychic Solare. You can also use Eject Button to move closer before using your Unite Move.

Stored Power Finisher

Stored Power Finisher

Pokemon UNITE - Stored Power Finisher
This is a finisher combo that utilizes Stored Power's missing HP bonus damage effect. Start by chipping away a portion of a target's HP using Psybeam. Get closer to your target then use Psychic Solare. Finish off your target using fully charged Stored Power. You can follow up with standard attacks if the target isn't defeated yet after the combo. You can also perform standard attacks to deplete the target's HP as low as possible before finishing them off.

Future Sight Combos

Infinite Power
Future Sight IconStored Power IconStandard Attack Icon x2 ► Future Sight IconStandard Attack Icon x2 ► Stored Power Icon
Pokemon UNITE - Infinite Power
Future SightStored PowerStandard Attack x2 ► Future SightStandard Attack x2 ► Stored Power
This is a single-target combo with the potential to be infinitely used. First, mark a target with Future Sight, then immediately follow up with a fully-charged Stored Power, reducing Future Sight's cooldown drastically. Unleash a couple of attacks, preferably at least one boosted attack to gain one charge of Stored Power, then mark the target again with Future Sight as soon as it's available. Attack again at least twice, then finish off your target with Stored Power (fully-charged or not). This combo is best performed when both moves are upgraded.
Future Sight Barrage

This is another single-target combo centered on Future Sight. Start by marking a target with Future Sight, then immediately follow up with Psyshock. Perform a couple of attacks to further reduce Future Sight's cooldown. When the first Future Sight explodes, use it again as soon as its available. If the enemy isn't knocked out yet, finish them with attacks or repeat the combo.
Future Sight Finisher

This is a variation of the previous combo, and can be used as a finisher. The setup is the same as the previous combo, but you finish it using Psychic Solare.

Best Teammates for Espeon

Pokemon Explanation
Blissey ImageBlissey Eldegoss ImageEldegoss Hoopa ImageHoopa Provides Healing, Shielding, and Buffs
Pokemon that provide healing, shielding, and buffs are the perfect teammates for Espeon as they can compensate for its lack of defenses. They also decrease the likelihood that Espeon will get bursted down by Speedsters.
Sylveon ImageSylveon Blastoise ImageBlastoise Gengar ImageGengar Special Attack Powerhouse
Pairing at least one of these Pokemon with Espeon allows you to dominate games with high Special Attack damage. This is especially useful when matched against Attackers or All-Rounders that have low Special Defense stat.
Machamp ImageMachamp Snorlax ImageSnorlax Wigglytuff ImageWigglytuff Can Set Up Espeon's Moves
These Pokemon have great disables that can allow Espeon to land its moves and deal damage. They can also protect Espeon as they stave off opponents at frontlines and tank the damage.
