The first major Unite Pokémon Update about balance changes has arrived.
This is great news if you play as Charizard or Wigglytuff, but a little less standout if you support your teammates as Eldegoss. The new Unite Pokémon Update Nerf’s Eldegoss pretty strong as its HP recovery moves Cotton Guard and Cotton Cloud Crash have been reduced. Meanwhile, Wigglytuff has seen gains across the board to improve its defenses and health, while several attacks have been stepped up. Another big winner is Charizard, who has reduced flamethrower and burst cooldowns as each attack becomes more effective.
Many other characters have also been tweaked, which you can see below. Talonflame, Venusaur, Absol, Cinderace, Gengar, Zeraora, Cramorant, Machamp, Lucario, Greninja and Alolan Ninetales are also affected.
