This may be self explanatory for native speakers, or, you know, normal people, but:
I wonder if this is meant as a court jester, magician here meaning trickster rather than mage? Because the teasers we've seen would make more sense in this context... (A large mask, a pointy collar, a yo-yo...) Would also make sense with the typing. But you are also mentioning a wand... Could be both, though, I guess.

The recent Quaxly news.

The way they had to follow Buzzwole with

four gen 1/2 Pokémon to restore the balance...


lol yes I think this exact detail will annoy some people, but luckily they're not dull picks (like if it was Pidgeot or something).

When the dataminer told me about them he led with them all being Gen 1 first and that made my heart sink a little, but then after seeing the actual picks I was excited again.

Oh I’ll need to farm some coins after I spend them all on Tyranitar I see.

Also Pika Party mode is hell on earth. Everyone else’s Pikachu seems too strong nn.

Scizor and Mew are cool additions, but Dodrio is a bit "her?" It feels like such a bland, "there" Pokémon, it's like if they added Raticate or Seaking or something.

I have to say that beyond the different roles, the melee/ranged and SpA/Attack splits and some occasional gimmicks, the various Pokémon don't exactly offer vastly different gameplay experiences, so I don't have much desire to try collecting a lot of them. Which, well, is probably a good thing, because that would end up being quite time consuming/expensive.
 
I definitely wouldn't aim to collect them all (though its easy to get very close, I think I'm only missing three mons and I could just purchase them now if I felt like it.)

I only ever get mons that fit my play style or interests. I'd have to disagree in that I think the majority of unite mons have pretty different playsyles. Unfortunately in the past months they've had a string of low effort mons (the eevees and some other attackers) who all feel pretty samey.

Hopefully the next three mon change that up a bit.

Especially Dodrio - our first speedster in an entire year.

They're a great pick to me because early on Unite gained a lot of good favour by adding quirky picks like Crustle, Cramorant, Eldegoss and later on Greedent. So its nice to see them still keep this up.

Hopefully they add Donphan and Bruxish soon!
