Pokemon Unite: Best Alolan Ninetails build Moveset, Battle & Held Items

In Pokemon Unite, Alolan Ninetails is a formidable challenger, and you’ll need to understand how to play the Attacker to take out enemies and claim the victory. From movesets to stats to Battle and Held Items in the TiMi Studios MOBA, here’s everything you need to know about Ninetales’ finest build.

Alolan Ninetails’ primary goal as an Attacker is to deliver as much damage as possible in order to fend off adversaries and help allies to score in the MOBA. The Pokemon from Generation VII is a big hitter, causing opponents to freeze and ruining their day.

If you want to master the arena in Pokemon Unite, you must first master the icy creature. Even if they are losing, a skilled Ninetails player can turn the war around.

How to play Alolan Ninetails

• The moves of Alolan Ninetails allow them to adjust to a build that is largely focused on damage output or one that is slightly more support-oriented. Keep an eye on your team’s makeup to choose the best course of action.
• Regardless, make use of your other buddies to boost your survival against the likes of Snorlax and other Defenders.
• Early on, focus on levelling up as rapidly as possible by beating Wild Pokemon to obtain that evolution and gain from the Special Attack boost at Level 4.
• Make careful you don’t get too near to your adversaries; Ninetails is a ranged attacker, and if you allow him, you’ll pay the price.

This Attacker’s greatest moveset will offer you everything you need to dominate as the frosty ‘mon, including the best techniques, Battle, and Held items to bring into the arena with Alolan Ninetails.

Alolan Ninetails moveset

	Move	Unlocked At	Upgrade Level
	Icy Wind	Level 1	Level 6: Upgrades to either Aurora Veil or Blizzard.
	Avalanche	Level 4	Level 12: Attacks with an ice wall from the ground. Slows the enemy down.
	Blizzard	Level 6	Level 13: Creates an icy AOE and decreases movement speed of the opponent. Reduces intervals between damage dealt.
	Snow Globe	Level 9	NA

Alolan Ninetails should use Icy Wind once the duel begins. The ranged strike not only damages opponents, but it also slows them down, making it difficult for them to retreat back to their goal to regain HP.

Powder Snow is the first skill to learn at Level 3. It, like Icy Wind, slows down rivals’ mobility, making it ideal for rescuing injured teammates or preventing opponents from scoring goals.

At level 6, Blizzard replaces Icy Wind, while Avalanche replaces Powder Snow at level 4.

Best Alolan Ninetails Held Items in Pokemon Unite

Held Item		ITEM USE	Max Stat Boosts
	Shell Bell	Heals HP every time you attack a wild Pokemon and opponents.	Sp Attack + 24Cooldown – 4.5%
	Sp. Atk. Specs	Increases Special Attack every time you score, up to 6 times.	Sp Attack +24
	Wise Glasses	Increases Special Attack.	Sp. Attack +39

Shell Bell: With this Held Item, you can go out on your own without fear of being healed. Every time you deal damage to an opponent or a wild Pokemon, it recovers your health.

Sp. Atk. Specs: Increases the Special Attack stat, but only after you score, and only up to six times. Because Alolan Ninetails can freeze adversaries, this item is ideal for immobilising them while running to the enemy’s goal.

Wise Glasses: Attacker Pokemon must deal damage, so increasing their Special Attack is essential. At its base level, the Wise Glasses augment Special Attack by 3%, giving you an extra boost.

Best Alolan Ninetails Battle Item in Pokemon Unite

Eject Button: This is without a doubt Ninetails’ greatest option. Because you’ll be rushing in and attacking whenever an opportunity arises, the Battle Item allows you to flee swiftly if you find yourself cornered.

It’s particularly handy while closing the gap on a wounded opponent running towards their goal to heal up, or when racing towards an open goal to score.
