Flareon and Jolteon Join Pokemon Unite in October 2026 Update

Pokemon Unite has added Flareon and Jolteon as playable characters, completing the roster of all Eevee evolutions. The new units arrive with the game's update on October 13, 2026. Both Pokémon begin matches as Eevee and transform into their final forms once players reach level four during gameplay.

Acquiring these characters requires purchasing licenses for 590 Aeos Gems each. Flareon functions as an intermediate-difficulty All-Rounder melee unit, focusing on offense with abilities like Swift and Fire Blast. Its Unite Move is Garnet Ignition. Jolteon serves as a Speedster melee attacker, also rated intermediate difficulty. It utilizes Quick Feet to gain speed against opponents and features Plasma Quintupulse as its Unite Move.

Sylveon was the first evolution introduced in October 2021. Subsequent releases included Espeon, Glaceon, Umbreon, Leafeon, and Vaporeon. The title is available on Nintendo Switch, Android, and iOS devices.
