Aegislash joins an already packed roster with additions like Dragonite, Mamoswine, Sylveon, and much more. This all-rounder can be seen in action in a short clip provided by the Pokemon Unite Twitter account alongside the announcement.  

Aegislash is an All-Rounder meaning it’s a jack of all trades and will probably be a bit tankier than initially expected, and in typical Pokemon Unite fashion will be too powerful at first and need to be nerfed.

It’s hard to tell its moveset from the short clip, but we do see what looks like a parry move as well as a giant dark sword swing that we imagine is its ultimate ability. 

A longer trailer detailing Aegislash’s moveset is bound to hit early next week ahead of its release and we will be eagerly awaiting it. The new season of Pokemon Unite just started and if you’re a fan of the wild west, you’ll want to hop in and take a look at the new battle pass.
