Aeos Emporium Store
In the MOBA’s in-game store, the Aeos Emporium, players can actually trade in their Aeos Tickets for Item Enhancers. The cost is 10 tickets for 1 enhancer – not a bad trade given how many tickets you will end up accumulating.
Pokemon Unite Trainer level
Trainers can actually get Item Enhancers by simply playing the game. The upgrade Item is given out as rewards at various levels as you increase your overall Trainer status.
Pokemon Unite Battle Pass
Item Enhancers are also rewards unlocked throughout the Battle Pass. While the premium-paid version offers more rewards, most of the Item Enhancer unlocks are available in the free version, so keep grinding!
Energy Rewards
Lastly, Item Enhancers are one of the rewards offered in the game’s loot box system: Energy Rewards. Trainers can spin up to 30 times a day, for a chance to score the Held Items upgrade currency.
Those looking to score a complete set of Held Items maxed out are going to need a ton of Item Enhancers. The best way to do this is just playing a lot of matches. TiMi Studios offers Trainers a flurry of ways to get the currency (all of them tied to participating in matches).
