Pokémon UNITE

In Pokémon UNITE, Leafage is Decidueye's and Eldegoss's first move.

Decidueye starts with the move as Rowlet. The user pelts leaves in the designated direction, dealing damage in a cone to enemies hit (only hits once). For a short time after using this move, the user’s Attack is increased by 10% (this also affects Leafage) and basic attack speed is increased by 25%. Upon evolving from Dartrix at level 7, it is replaced by either Razor Leaf or Spirit Shackle

Eldegoss starts with the move as Gossifleur. The user shoots a bundle of leaves that explode on the first enemy hit, damaging and slowing in an area. Upon evolving at level 4, this move is replaced by either Pollen Puff or Leaf Tornado.
