Umbreon Pokemon Unite EVERYTHING You NEED To Know!

[@nocapcapo]

You can actually prevent mean look from trapping you by using full heal before the circle appears. That is because when umbreon casts its mean look there is a time gap between when the eye icon is closed and when its open ( when the eye opens the circle appears). If you use full heal or any unstoppable during the time the eye is still closed mean look will not be able to trap you.

[@Caliber918]

@@hundredfireify if it’s unstoppable then yes most likely

[@jasonnordine8839]

[@enderxv]

It might sound weird, but I'm honestly looking forward to using wish. I enjoy playing healers already and having a defender that can heal teammates really apeals to me

[@blackice3661]

Umbreon is kinda weird it acts like speedster with foul play. It acts like supporter with wish then acts like an attacker with mean look and finally acts like a defender with Snarl.

[@adrielblake732]

@@blackice3661 gameplay wise he’s an incredible mon. Mean look alone will be such a good pick/peel move and being able to pocket heal a carry that’s been jumped on while peeling for them is a godsend the unite is just the icing on the cake. Umbreon is going to be amazing in team fights

@@blackice3661 I guess it depends on your team and how competent they are tbh, foul play is better if your team doesn’t know how to play around meanlook support but even so against something like a dodrio I think mean look will always be better since it’s just a straight hard counter most of the time

[@josie7346]

I love that they seem to have doubled down on the VGC role of this pokemon as a stalling tank. Considering the motif, it seems like they're giving incentive to run leftovers just like when it was meta in VGC. Since the unite move is so good, I wonder if running amp would be worthwhile here

[@jakiru8783]

Love that about it since I've used it like that in battles. For fun might have to try X-Attack + Leftovers&Cookie with the 3rd item as either Barrier, Score Shield, or EXP-Share.

[@Carutsu]

what does VGC mean?

[@esosique5]

@@Carutsu Video Game Championship. As opposed to TCG (Trading Card Game), Unite, Go, etc.

[@Subreon]

It's so hard to choose what items to run. After the umbreon craze dies down, buddy barrier will be great to stack with stolen shields. But for now I'm thinking leftovers, exp share, and energy Amp. Maybe replace the first 2 with rapid fire and float stone? Aaaaaagh. I'm thinking I'll mostly be playing like glaceon. Staying in the enemy's jungle to steal all their farm and score as much as possible. Self sustaining and escaping would be best then, so running mean look, wish, x speed, float stone, rapid fire, and energy Amp will probably be my setup. If I was defending, leftovers would be better than float stone cuz combining the passive, leftover, and base healing would be super fast and you never have to leave it unguarded. Defending is boring makes my numbers stay small and feel unimportant though so I'll go with the first setup. Using him with my plan will feel like how I used him in Coliseum uwu

[@calc8999]

@@Subreon Running leftovers on a pokemon that is extremely good in teamfights (or on any pokemon) is like gimping yourself with only 2 active items the whole game since you're only getting the passive recovery out of combat. Muscle band, rapid fire scarf, razor claw, weakness policy, attack weight and cookie all much better options. If you wanted HP recovery potion is a very good option on defenders.

[@jakiru8783]

Very excited to use this as my main Defender/Support 😅 Had no idea the passive recovery was just a natural thing once you got the unite, wow! Love the subtle nod to Moonlight. Think the first items I'll use are Potion + Cookie/Muscle/Scarf. Probably X-Speed too. Though I'm so tempted to try a set with Leftovers in it now too, lol! X-Attack + Leftovers/Cookie/Score-Shield is probably what it'd be 😝

[@munchlacks2900]

X attack with no damage items?

[@jakiru8783]

@@munchlacks2900 The idea isn't damage necessarily but to get those chunks of healing more often, particularly when using Mean Look.

[@josephatkinson6280]

​@@munchlacks2900 you don't need damage items to take advantage of x attack lmao

[@Subreon]

If you intend to defend bases, leftovers, potion, and energy Amp or exp share will probably be best. Cuz then you get the passive, leftovers, wish, and base healing, plus an emergency potion for crazy healing. Attackers will be forced to use their unites on you to do anything, but then you just steal their shield, then with energy amp you'll always be ready to do it again when they come back to try again. After the umbreon craze is done and the enemy doesn't have them anymore, buddy barrier would be great too. With all this stuff combined, you could probably defend against the entire enemy team. You could also keep trapping them if they beat Ray so the shield wears off before they get to your base, then you get the base shield and fight them off. As for me I'm gonna try to keep fighting like I do with glaceon. Self sustaining, stealing all their jungle farm, and scoring as much as possible.

[@jakiru8783]

@@Subreon Yeah, definitely some things to consider. I'm totally willing to swap Score-Shield with exp-share but the reason I wanted to try it is the greater amount of given HP and even if your passive activates while scoring with the shield I think that means your shield will be even tougher to break because of the added defenses. Even once less people play Umbreon I think the Barrier shield will be a bit overkill in most situations. The reason I like Cookie is not only the higher survivability but also increasing your healing from the Boosted-Attack and maybe even Wish!

[@Pink_Justice]

Mean Look will definitely be my favorite, I look forward to running it with a Gardevoir teammate for easy future sights and psy-shocks.

Surely umbreon as a defender isnt gonna outdmg attackers, while having insane amounts off cc and healing more than a trevenant and goodra combined while having a better clefable gravity. Also good job devs for making crustle even more useless.

[@bastee1829]

I´m really looking forward to Wish, a Defender who can heal itself and the teammates will be amazing ❤

[@joyoobility9176]

Me who used leftovers cuz I'm new:...what....have i done... But tbh, Umbreon is quite OP. Used the guy as free trial and he is quite the absolute tank.....whom also is a lot more of an annoyance to fight with. Looking at mean look, that is cool yet also annoying. It traps. However, about 3/4 of umbreon's moves are just a counter to mobile hit-and-run units. Foul play lets you stun someone after that second strike, snarl also stuns right after it ends and mean look is just straight up bullying someone trying to flee. He's even more tankier with that shield of his from using snarl and gets absolutely more with wish(which honestly sounds support for my liking, being that you can give hp to teammates....but the fact that you can also grant yourself wish is also a game changer). What's makes him a more pain for those using shields is that his unite steals that crap. As for my conclusion, he's definitely doing more damage than he was intented to due to all these movement restrictions.....and shields(and quite mobile too with foul play that can act like a 'gtfo' ability). He would probably get nerfed with all these movement restrictions, being more flexible with foul play and having shields to improve his overall good bulk.....but if not, I say it's best for teams to immediately target umbreon for the time being.

[@ericmendo6094]

I can't wait to use Umbreon as a mostly main defender in this game, but I think my favourite move will be its Unite move. The hability to steal everyone's shields and become a mostly unkillable beast during the big fights is going to be gamechanging in some matches.

[@EnforcerHollyleaf]

I've distracted so many opponents from doing stuff just because it takes so long to kill Umbreon 💀💀

[@YuriModesto]

Mean look is truly mean. As a defender/supporter main I can’t wait to take Umbreon to battle. Brawling and supporting allies, best of both worlds. And not to mention it’s an eeveelution. Dang I might turn it into my main character

[@bradley1140]

Wish is gotta be the highlight for me, as a defender/support main I love to heal lol. Mean Look does scare me tho, especially if it gets combo's with imprison

“This is actually the first Eevee with a sure-hit Swift.” *Glaceon’s Swift fades out of existence* Also you DO use crits on Umbreon since its boosteds’ crits do so much damage.

True, but Glaceon’s Swift still never misses.

Yup, Foul Play second hit as he said scales off opponent's attack so if you're using it after you've lowered their attack with Snarl its counterintuitive 😅

What about using rescue hood? I feel like a build revolving around healing would be interesting.

If wish scales with either Attack or Hp then Cookie and weight is better, same situation atiwith comfey bascially

[@RyansChannel0203]

@@thelatiking5981 I can’t really speak for Attack Weight since no healers ever use it, but Rescue Hood has always been a great/less risky substitute for Sp. Attack Specs, which would only ever outheal Rescue Hood like around 5 or 6 stacks. I always run both of those items together though.

You can escape with talon's fly if you use it immediately when it is cast. If you wait too long and the circle is already around you, I dont think you can escape.

[@puntroo_]

It's kinda difficult to balance the viability between Mean Look and Foul Play. They can make the upgrade of Foul Play a regular one to compensate multiple autos inside the circle during Mean Look. Maybe increasing the power of tackle from Foul Play or its radius would be a solution. Nevermind, I can see them just nerfing Mean Look to resolve this issue UPD: Adding an additional passive from learning a Unite move is something new, isn't it?

Oh Umbreon, like VGC like Unite. There's a reason older VGC Pokemon fans have a hatred for this Pokemon. Man this thing's CC is crazy, and its sustain is equally crazy. While i think Snarl and Mean Look will create the super annoying combination on Umbreon, I gotta say Wish is my favorite on this pokemon

[@DarthStuticus]

So.. they gave Umbreon the shield steal so buddy barrier isn't used in EVERY freaking build.

[@xRagingxDemonx]

Mean Look and Wish is already an amazing counter against Zacian, but stealing enemy shields is about to be a godsend. Screw You Tyranitar. No more being a hypocrite... Ignoring shields while producing your own. It's MINE NOW. I'd like to know how much more attacks do you get when using Rapid Fire scarf while using mean look. While procced if i only get 1 more swing then I don't think it's worth, but if it provides at least 2 or more in it's base form then yes totally worth it. I know I'm running Weakness Policy with Focus band. More HP for boosted recovery and Focus Band because it's the only good defensive item. I'm tempted to run Aeos cookie for a massive hp bump so my boosted heal for more, and focus band would as well, but I won't be able to decide until i see how Rapid Fire Scarf functions on Her.

[@astropult9377]

Idk which move is my favorite tbh. Mean Look is gonna be op, Foul Play is going to be good against strong physical attackers *coughcough* Zacian *coughcough* , Wish is going to be a great support move and I love playing support and same can go with snarl. It’s unite move, while I know it’s gonna be great, will probably be activated in the wrong time by some players.
