Long have fans waited for something that may truly spice up Pokémon UNITE’s gameplay, and it looks like September might just bring plenty of fresh content because a new map, three new Pokémon, and even more content will be added to the game during the next half of the 1st Anniversary Celebration event.
Starting on Sept. 2, Mew will be added to the game as the next playable Pokémon. The Psychic-type will be followed by Dodrio on Sept. 14 and Scizor on Sept. 28.
All three Pokémon will be unique, as Mew will have access to more moves than other playable Pokémon, Dodrio will be the first Speedster available in the game since Zeraora’s special campaign at launch, and Scizor looks to play differently than any of the other Pokémon currently on the roster. Just be ready to fork over some Aros Coins and Aeos Gems in quick succession if you want to grab the latter two.

Mew will be available for free via a set of special event missions that will go live on Sept. 2, which will have players clearing missions to collect Slates and complete a puzzle. Collecting all six Slates will allow you to unlock Mew at no cost.
That is just the start too, as the new Theia Sky Ruins map will also be added on Sept. 2, bringing with it Rayquaza, Regice, Registeel, Regirock, and Regieleki as objectives. We got a brief glimpse of this map at the 2022 Pokémon World Championships, but expect to hear more about it ahead of the release too.

Another set of missions will also go live at the same time themed around the new map, with players earning Theia’s Old Coins, which can then be exchanged for a number of rewards like Tuxedo Style Venusaur and Tuxedo Style Espeon Holowear.
As for the next Quick Battle Mode, Trainers from the main series Pokémon games will be added to the game as NPCs, with players getting to battle their signature Pokémon as if they were challenging them to a different type of battle. Cynthia, Korrina, Leon, Raihan, and Green are all featured in this mode with unique artwork.

Earning enough Trainer Battle Coins during this event will let you exchange them for various items, including an avatar item set based on Leon, the Champion from Pokémon Sword and Shield. Just be sure you get it done while the mode is live from Sept. 9 to Oct. 2, though there will likely be an additional window where you can exchange any leftover coins.
There was a tease for the next battle pass too, which will be themed around Mew and the Theia Sky Ruins, with Holowear for Azumarill and Mew included.
