Pokemon Unite Medals explained

If you’ve ever finished a battle in Unite, you will be familiar with the post-match screen that shows the results of the contest. While there, however, you may have also noticed that some players have little symbols next to their names.

Outside of the coveted MVP Crown, there isn’t a detailed explanation for what the rest of the badges actually mean. Which is pretty surprising since they are present in Ranked and Standard matchmaking.

How to get medals in Pokemon Unite?

The easiest way to obtain medals in the MOBA is to zone in on a specific goal. If you want the Healer badge, for instance, a Supporter character like Eldegoss is perfect for obtaining the accolade with its ability Cotton Guard.

If you want to score the Goal Interruptor, then Defender Snorlax can knock enemies off of goal zones using its Block attack.

What do you get from Pokemon Unite Badges?

Trainers can find their medals listed in the post-match lobby.

Players hoping to unlock rewards for each match will be let down as Pokemon Unite medals don’t actually give you anything. The badges are purely a pat on the back and a visual cue to let Trainers know how they performed.

Since you are going to be trying your best in every battle anyways though, it’s just a bonus acknowledgment that you fought the very best. Users trying to score a little extra, however, should not waste their time trying to find these.
