Comfey Blossoms Into Pokemon UNITE February 2!
Comfey will be joining the Pokemon UNITE roster as the 47th playable character in the popular MOBA. The most recent addition was Dragapult, which was added on December 29, 2022, as part of Pokemon UNITE‘s New Year’s celebration event.
The event also included a battle event, Red Team vs Blue Team, which will run until February 5, 2023. Other additions included the start of the Season 13 Battle Pass, which will run until March 2, and a New Year’s Celebration login event that will reward players who log in daily with free licenses and Holowear until January 31, 2023.
The other 45 characters currently available in Pokemon UNITE include the following: Urshifu, Clefable, Duraludon, Hoopa, Trevenant, Dragonite, Tsareena, Greedent, Sylveon, Mamoswine, Blastoise, Blissey, Gardevoir, Zeraora, Pikachu, Charizard, Snorlax, Crustyle, Greninja, Eldegoss, Talonflame, Lucario, Venusaur, Mr. Mine, Slowbro, Absol, Machamp, Wigglytuff, Alolan Ninetails, Cramorant, Gengar, Garchomp, Cinderace, Duraludon, Azumarill, Espeon, Delphox, Glaceon, Buzzwole, Tyranitar, Mew, Dodrio, and Scizor.
It is expected that Comfey will receive a more detailed trailer in the future with more information. However, as always, rumors point to how the Pokemon might play in the game.
It seems Comfey will primarily serve a Support role in Pokemon UNITE, using moves like Floral Healing, Sweet Kiss, Grass Knot, and Magical Leaf to support its allies. It also seems to have the ability to attach to its allies to provide them with specific benefits in battle.
Comfey will officially be available for Pokemon UNITE as a playable character on February 2, 2023. It is unknown at this time if there will be a distribution event for its UNITE License.
