Eevee fans have been waiting for this one, and it’s finally here. Pokémon Unite just confirmed four new playable Pokémon rolling out over September and October, and the headline act is the last piece of the Eevee evolution puzzle finally slotting into place.
What happened
The upcoming additions are Morpeko, Toxtricity, Jolteon, and Flareon. With Jolteon and Flareon joining the roster, every Eevee evolution that’s been teased or requested by the community is now accounted for in Unite, closing out a lineup that’s been slowly building since the game launched. Morpeko and Toxtricity round out the batch with two very different playstyles, giving the roster some real variety beyond just “more Eeveelutions.”
Why it matters
Eevee and its evolutions are some of the most requested picks in any Pokémon spinoff, and MOBAs live and die by how deep and varied their character pool feels. Completing the Eevee family isn’t just a fan-service checkbox, it’s a signal that TiMi Studio Group is committed to filling out iconic Pokémon families rather than leaving obvious gaps. Jolteon in particular should appeal to players who want a fast, high-mobility speedster, while Flareon fills the aggressive melee attacker slot the family was still missing.
What to expect
Expect the usual rollout pattern: a licensed Pokémon or two dropping alongside the standard ones, likely paired with themed holowear, events, and probably a login campaign to get players trying the new units early. Don’t be surprised if Jolteon leans into Speedster or Attacker mechanics built around Electric-type burst damage, while Flareon looks like a strong all-rounder or attacker with close-range punch. Toxtricity and Morpeko’s exact roles are still unconfirmed, but given their track record elsewhere in the franchise, expect one to lean support/disruption and the other to bring unconventional utility.
Whether you’ve been holding out for Jolteon specifically or just want a fuller roster to draft around, this update is a solid reason to jump back into ranked once the Pokémon start landing. The real test will be how balanced they feel in the first few weeks post-launch.
