*Pokémon Unite* features six ranks, each segmented into multiple classes that allow for progressive advancement. The number of classes within each rank can vary, with higher ranks typically having more classes. To climb the ranks, players must engage in ranked matches, as points are only earned in these competitive games. Here’s a breakdown of the ranks in *Pokémon Unite*:

  • Beginner Rank (3 Classes)
  • Great Rank (4 Classes)
  • Expert Rank (5 Classes)
  • Veteran Rank (5 Classes)
  • Ultra Rank (5 Classes)
  • Master Rank

Starting Out

The journey begins at the Beginner Rank, which is divided into three classes. To dive into ranked matches, players must first reach Trainer Level 6, achieve a Fair Play score of 80, and collect five Pokémon licenses. Once these criteria are met, the ranked match mode becomes available, and players start their climb from the Beginner Rank.

Performance Points

In each ranked match, players earn Performance Points based on their performance. Points range from 5 to 15 per match, influenced by individual scores, sportsmanship (10 points), participation (10 points), and winning streaks (10 to 50 points). Each rank has a cap on Performance Points; upon reaching this cap, players earn 1 Diamond Point per match, which is essential for advancing. Here are the Performance Point caps for each rank:

  • Beginner Rank: 80 Points
  • Great Rank: 120 Points
  • Expert Rank: 200 Points
  • Veteran Rank: 300 Points
  • Ultra Rank: 400 Points
  • Master Rank: N/A

Advancing and Advancement Rewards

Advancement in *Pokémon Unite* is driven by Diamond Points. Accumulating four Diamond Points allows players to move up a class. Once the highest class within a rank is achieved, players transition to the first class of the next rank. Diamond Points are awarded for victories and deducted for losses in ranked matches. Additionally, players with maxed-out Performance Points for their rank earn one Diamond Point per match.

At the end of each season, *Pokémon Unite* rewards players with Aeos Tickets based on their rank, with higher ranks yielding more tickets. These tickets are crucial for purchasing items and upgrades in the Aeos Emporium. Some ranks also offer unique seasonal rewards, adding extra incentives to climb the ranks.

With this comprehensive understanding of the ranking system, you're well-equipped to tackle ranked matches and ascend through the classes and ranks of *Pokémon Unite*. Best of luck in your quest for dominance and the best rewards the game has to offer!
