Pokemon UNITE allows trainers to give their Pokemon items in order to boost their performance in certain areas.

Instead of building items over the course of a match like other multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) titles, Pokemon UNITE allows players to purchase different items and upgrade them via currency earned after matches.

There are two types of items in the game, Held Items and Battle Items. Held Items are given to a Pokemon before a match to impact certain areas of their performance. Battle Items can be used by trainers anytime during a match to heal, increase speed, and help their team win.
