Pokemon Unite Aegislash Build – Items, Moves, and More

Published by

Here is everything you need to know about Aegislash in Pokemon Unite. Find out his best moves, items, and more in our guide.

In the February 11 Update, Pokemon Unite debuted Aegislash, a new Pokemon with a stunningly sharp appearance. With its shield and sword at the ready, it expects to be able to defend itself as well as strike down any foe who dares to challenge it. We’re not shocked that it’s now officially Pokemon Unite’s newest All-Rounder, given its intriguing blend of qualities.

Aegislash is a melee all-rounder, which means he boasts a solid balance of attack and defense. Aegislash is best played in the bottom lane because of his playstyle.

Aegislash Stats (The Pokemon Company)

Pokemon Unite Aegislash Abilities

Passive Skill: Honedge and Doubleblade

  • No Guard (Honedge/Doublade) – Damage dealt and received is increased.
  • Stance Change (Aegislash) – Aegislash switches between Blade Form and Shield Form as attacks are used.

Blade Form occurs when Aegislash attacks with its blade. Movement speed, attack speed, and attack power are increased. Shield Form occurs when Aegislash attacks with its shield. Defense and special defense are increased. Whenever Aegislash changes forms, its movement speed and attack speed are increased.

Ability 1: Shadow Sneak

Aegislash will cast a shadow in the direction you choose. The player moves to the area of the shadows when it hits or reaches its maximum range, delivering damage and granting Aegislash a boost.

Upgraded Ability 1: Sacred Sword

Aegislash slams its sword into the ground, creating a triangular area that deals damage to all Pokemon inside and increases boost count. Aegislash also slashes directly ahead for more damage. 6 second cooldown. At Lvl. 11 Aegislash’s Attack is increased for a short time if the attack was successful.

Upgraded Ability 1: Shadow Claw

Aegislash swings its sword three times, dealing damage with each hit and throwing enemies into the air on the third hit. If at least one hit lands, the boost count is increased. 5.5 second cooldown. At Lvl. 11 Aegislash’s critical hit rate is increased for a short time on successful final hit.

Ability 2: Iron Defense

For a limited time, Aegislash is granted a defensive shield. If Aegislash is hit, the defense will disappear, and Aegislash’s attack will be enhanced.

Upgraded Ability 2: Wide Guard

A massive shield protects Aegislash from damage, pushing enemy Pokemon away when it appears. The boost count increases once when the shield is activated and once for every enemy Pokemon that attacks it. If the shield is depleted by enemy damage, it pushes enemy Pokemon away on the final hit and increases the boost count again. 7.5 second cooldown. At Lvl. 13 the move’s cooldown is reduced.

Upgraded Ability 2: Iron Head

Aegislash charges forward, dealing damage and generating a shield that cancels damage from one attack. The boost count is increased after the attack and when the shield blocks an attack. 6.5 second cooldown. At Lvl. 13 Aegislash’s Attack is increased when an opponent’s move is blocked by the generated shield.
