For its upcoming fourth anniversary,

Pokemon Unite will welcome the Legendary critters Latios and Latias to the list of playable characters. The draconic Latios and Latias will be available in Pokemon Unite  starting July 21, though additional details about how the fan-favorite legendaries will play in the MOBA title remain elusive.

Known as the Eon Pokemon, Latios and Latias first appeared in Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire as roaming legendaries that players could pursue after becoming the Hoenn League Champion. Both Latios and Latias are Dragon and Psychic dual types, with some core differences that set them apart. Latias is the smaller red Eon Pokemon with slightly better defenses, and Latios is the larger blue counterpart with higher attack power. Though they are not the most powerful of their kind, the distinct appearances of Latios and Latias make them both stand out among the Hoenn region's roster of Legendary Pokemon Hoenn region's roster of Legendary Pokemon. 

After the arrival of Alcremie as a Ranged Support option  for novice players to try out, Pokemon Unite confirmed that two popular creatures will soon follow. As announced by Pokemon Unite on social media, Latios and Latias will arrive on Aeos Island on Monday, July 21, as part of the game's fourth anniversary festivities. Latios and Latias will join Blaziken, Sableye, Absol, Metagross, and Gardevoir on the roster of playable monsters from the Hoenn region in Pokemon Unite. However, further details about what Latios and Latias can do in Pokemon Unite matches, or what roles they will fulfill in a team composition, are unknown as of this writing. It is also unclear if Latios and Latias will be separate characters, or a two-in-one option for players to consider.
