Game Modes

In the Pokémon screen, where you can check the various Pokémon in the game, you have the ability to have a practice match using any of the Pokémon, including ones you don't have, versus Pokémon you have controlled by the CPU. This allows for you to test out various Pokémon, their moves and mechanics even before you purchase or obtain their Unite License.

In the main Unite Battle section is the Standard Battle option. This option comes with three different possibilities.

CPU Match - Play with 4 friends against the CPU
Random Match - Play with Random Players
Friend Match - Set up a match between 10 different players using your friend list.

This mode utilises the usual lobby system allowing for you to add friends from your Friend List into your team before you progress

After reaching Level 6, you'll gain the ability to go into Ranked Match. This mode allows for you to rank up in the game, with various rewards for completing it, and a rank that goes up and down depending on your success. You will get placed with players of similar rank and skill through this. There are also leaderboards in the game's main menu that allows you to see your position globally against others

This mode utilises the usual lobby system allowing for you to add friends from your Friend List into your team before you progress into the match.

There is also another mode, the Quick Match mode which has battles that take less time and require less people. The stages that you can play will rotate through over time and sometimes give multiple selections to play.

CPU Match - Play with 2 to 3 friends against the CPU
Random Match - Play with Random Players
Friend Match - Set up a match between 10 different players using your friend list.

This mode utilises the usual lobby system allowing for you to add friends from your Friend List into your team before you progress into the match.
