Timi Studio and The Pokemon Company International kicked off 2024 by revealing Magikarp and Gyarados will appear in Pokemon Unite on January 25, 2024. The announcement also confirmed that Magikarp’s “Splash” attack will be tied to its evolution method.
First, here’s the first screenshot of Magikarp in Pokemon Unite, which shows a new gauge below the health bar that is apparently tied to the attack Splash (はねる). The UI in the bottom right also notes the move Flail (じたばた) is present.
There is also a first video showing a Magikarp hopping around the map. The brief teaser shows it taking the southern lane and hopping up to an opposing goal. It then stops there.
There’s no footage of Gyarados in the game yet.
We saw two new Pokemon appear in Pokemon Unite in December 2023. The first one was Meowscarada. That debuted on December 7, 2023, alongside Sprigatito and Floragato. People can still earn it for free during the Meowscarada’s Flower Petal Challenge until January 10, 2024. On December 26, 2023, Beldum, Metang, and Metagross joined the game. You can get it from the in-game shop for 575 Aeos Gems.
Pokemon Unite is available on the Nintendo Switch and mobile devices, and Magikarp and Gyarados debut on January 25, 2024.
