Goodra will be added to Pokémon Unite on March 16th, following this week’s news that the Sword legendary Zacian would be joining the game. This little monster, which first appeared in the sixth generation, serves as a “Melee Defender” in Unite.

It is a part of the rumors that Chandelure, Tropius, and Inteleon would be added to the cast (via @ElChicoEevee and The Gamer).

On a somewhat similar note, a patch is also being implemented following the discovery of a problem with the new playable Pokémon:

We are currently aware of an issue that is affecting Zacian. We have identified the cause of this issue, and will be releasing a hotfix at 11:00pm PT.

We appreciate your patience and understanding. #PokemonUNITE pic.twitter.com/5Yb6XZpZ4q
