Ahead of the 30th anniversary of Pokémon and the annual celebration Pokémon Day, the free-to-play MOBA Pokémon Unite has confirmed the next trio of playable Pokémon coming to the game.

It’s the legendary birds Articuno, Zapdos and Moltres, which featured in the original Pokédex. Zapdos will be arriving on 27th February 2026 (aka Pokémon Day), with the other two to follow this Pokémon at some point in the future.

In Pokémon Red and Blue on the Game Boy, these birds were included alongside Mewtwo as the original legendaries.

If you haven’t already played Pokémon Unite, this competitive Pokémon game is once again free-to-play on mobile devices and the Switch. It’s also playable on the Switch 2. In some other Pokémon news ahead of the big celebrations next week, Pokémon TCG has lifted the lid on its next Trading Card Game Booster set.
