Pokémon Unite's 3rd Anniversary: Legendary Ho-oh Joins the Celebration

Author: Penelope May 22,2025

Pokémon UNITE is marking its 3rd anniversary with a spectacular addition—the legendary Pokémon Ho-oh! This iconic bird joins the roster as a ranged defender, bringing its unique ability, Regenerator, which allows Ho-oh to heal over time as long as it remains undamaged by opponents within a specified period.

Ho-oh's powerful Unite Move, Rekindling Flame, enables it to consume all its Aeos energy to revive fallen allies. The more Aeos energy consumed, the greater the number of allies Ho-oh can bring back to the fight.

From now until August 11th, dive into a variety of in-game events. The Panic Parade Revival event, running through September 4th, reintroduces the thrilling tower defense mode where you must safeguard Tinkaton from relentless waves of attacking Pokémon.

During the Ho-Oh Commemorative event, you can claim one free die daily. Rolling this die advances you on the game board, where completing missions tied to the square you land on earns you another die. Accumulate 1000 Divine Forest coins throughout the event to exchange for Ho-Oh's Unite license.

Don't miss the Charizard Unite License Distribution, available through September 2nd. Log in during the event to have a shot at winning a Charizard-themed hat, Charizard's Unite license, or 100 Aeos coins. Remember, you can only claim one of these rewards.

Additionally, Pokémon UNITE introduces a new Battle Pass with a striking black flames theme. Available from July 21st to September 4th, purchasing this Battle Pass grants you the chance to unlock the majestic Dark Lord Style: Charizard holowear as you level up.

Pokémon UNITE is accessible on the App Store, Google Play, and Nintendo Switch. For more details, visit the official website and join the celebration!
