combat items

Combat items are largely left to player preference, but there are some synergies with some builds that players might want to consider.

• scorer – Paired with Attack Weight, Goal Getter can ensure Azumarill scores as often as possible to get her Attack Buffs. The high 90-second cooldown might seem like a lot, but when used properly, it can get you a last-minute score.
• X speed – Mobility is very important in Pokémon Unite, and players who don’t use Play Rough may end up chasing enemy Pokémon for too long. X Speed ​​can guarantee both getting out of chases and ending a chase quickly for Pokemon with low HP.
• X attack – Both Razor Claw and Scope Lens have increased their effectiveness as Azumarill’s Attack increases. With the increase in basic attack damage, both Aqua Tail and Play Rough are greatly improved. The low cooldown of only 40 seconds is a good bonus.
