Pokémon UNITE is set to welcome Alcremie, the adorable and highly customizable Fairy-type Pokémon from Generation 8, in a major update launching on June 12, 2025. After months of anticipation, fans can finally prepare to add this charming “Cream Pokémon” to their battle lineup.
Since its launch in July 2021, Pokémon UNITE has captivated players worldwide with its unique blend of Pokémon mechanics and MOBA gameplay, available on Nintendo Switch and mobile devices. Starting with just 19 playable Pokémon, the roster has expanded dramatically to over 70 by 2025 — including recent additions like Alolan Raichu in April and Suicune in March.
The upcoming update was teased with a brief trailer showing Alcremie twirling atop a two-tier cake decorated with strawberries, showcasing its signature sweetness and charm. This announcement follows a Pokémon UNITE presentation during Pokémon Day 2025, which revealed that Alcremie, Alolan Raichu, and Suicune would join the game throughout the year. With Suicune and Alolan Raichu already released, all eyes are now on Alcremie’s debut.
Fans can expect Alcremie to bring a fresh dynamic to battles, likely leveraging its Fairy typing and customizable appearance to dazzle opponents and support teammates. The update is sure to shake up the meta and add new strategies for both casual and competitive players.
Mark your calendars for June 12 and get ready to welcome Alcremie — the sweetest addition yet — to Pokémon UNITE!
