Internet Reactions to Pokémon Unite Are Hilariously Polarizing

 

July 2, 2020

Pokémon is one of those franchises that is so beloved that it can’t seem to really lose, that is until Nintendo revealed Pokémon Unite. To say the internet reactions to the Pokémon MOBA were divisive would be a massive understatement, and it seems like there is no in-between when it comes to whether people loved the reveal or absolutely hated it.

From League of Legends and Raid: Shadow Legends comparisons, to those being excited about a brand-new Pokémon experience; here are some of our best picks for Pokémon Unite reactions that did anything but unite.

Pokémon Unite Reactions

Not all of the reactions were bad though, to be fair. Some were genuinely excited to see a brand-new take on this popular franchise. We’ve seen cooking spins, mobile games, RPGs, and more – why not a MOBA? Worst case scenario: it flops and we have a billion other Pokémon experiences to enjoy instead:

For those that may have missed out on the original reveal, Pokémon Unite is a 5v5 MOBA experience that will task players with the objective of taking out the enemy team with the help of some of our most loved pocket monsters. The structure is very similar to that of games like DOTA and League of Legends, which is a niche that has a high player rate and high retention rate.

Do we think Pokémon Unite will be the next big thing in esports? No, absolutely not, but the idea is intriguing and we are interested in learning more about what this specific experience will have to offer fans.

What are your thoughts on the Pokémon Unite MOBA? Will you be jumping into the battles that it has to offer, or are you in the camp that just isn’t feeling it?
