You’ll start Pokemon Unite with the Leftovers held item, but once you master your movement between your goal zones, you’ll want to swap it out for something more targeted to your Pokemon. The Float Stone, for example, is great for mid-lane speedsters aiming to sneak goals behind the enemy team or move between supporting each lane. Attack Weight will beef you up over the course of a match, while Scope Lens is great for auto-attack monsters.
That’s the full Pokemon Unite item list. Be sure to check each effect carefully before designing your builds. And while you’re here, check out our Pokemon Unite hub page for more useful tips and tricks including a full controls guide for the game.
