Here’s a new trailer:

You can find the rundown (via the official website) below.

ALL ABOUT UNITE BATTLES

A powerful energy permeates Aeos Island that makes Pokémon grow stronger and provides them with enhanced abilities.

Pokémon Trainers from around the world come here to harness the power of Aeos energy in thrilling battles.

Before battle, each player chooses one Pokémon. Each Pokémon has its own strengths and weaknesses.

During each battle, Pokémon will experience tremendous growth and even temporarily evolve!

PREPARE FOR BATTLE

Players select the moves their Pokémon can potentially learn and the items it will hold in battle.

As the battle progresses, Pokémon will get stronger and learn a variety of new moves. Practice and discover which moves suit your playstyle the best!

HELD ITEMS AND BATTLE ITEMS

You can get the most out of your Pokémon by giving it up to three items to hold. There are over 15 types of held items, so find a combination that best complements your Pokémon’s moves.

Trainers can support their Pokémon during a battle by using battle items.

During battle, players defeat wild Pokémon or opposing Pokémon and collect the Aeos energy they drop.

Then, players deposit that Aeos energy into one of their opponents’ goal zones to score points for their team. At the end of battle, the team with the most points wins!

Work with your teammates to earn points and to defend your goal zones to limit your opponents’ opportunities to score.

REWARDS
Keep battling to earn in-game rewards that will unlock more Pokémon, as well as outfits for your Trainer and Holowear for your Pokémon.

You’ll also be able to unlock rewards with Aeos gems, which can be purchased with real-world money.

Look out for powerful wild Legendary Pokémon that can quickly change the course of battle.
