Mewtwo Joining Pokemon Unite for Its Second Anniversary (Update)

Mewtwo is about to join Pokemon Unite. The character will join the roster on July 21, 2023. There are no details on its moveset or abilities yet. However, it will be part of the second anniversary celebration for the game. The art also teases the Mega Mewtwo X and Y forms. Update: Timi Studio and The Pokemon Company International confirmed that it is Mega Mewtwo X joining on July 21, 2023, with Mega Mewtwo Y appearing in August 2023.

Here’s the official announcement. Mewtwo is in the front. To the left behind the Pokemon is Mega Mewtwo Y. On the right is Mega Mewtwo X. This could suggest that when someone plays as the character, they’ll be able to evolve it into one of those two forms, which were introduced in Pokemon X and Y.

Quite a few new characters appeared in Pokemon Unite lately. As part of the Eevee Festival, both Umbreon and Leafeon joined. Umbreon showed up first on May 25, 2023. Leafeon followed on June 8, 2023. More recently however, Inteleon will join the cast on July 3, 2023. When it does, it will be able to get either Orange or Purple Holowear to set it apart from other characters.

Pokemon Unite is available for the Nintendo Switch and mobile devices, and we’ll see Mewtwo join the cast on July 21, 2023.
