Players of Pokémon Unite will recognize the "Legendary Flight", as the three Legendary birds of Kanto and the first generation, in their appearance in "legend pits" on certain maps and for their partial playability in the Catch 'Em map. Now, though, and as a part of commemorating the 30th anniversary of Pokémon, players can (or will) be able to enjoy them in full playability, certainly through the game's system of Unite Licenses and by earning them through a game event... aside from paying them outright and immediately with Aeos Gems, also as usual.
The three birds are given the roles of Defender for Articuno, Attacker for Zapdos, and All-Rounder for Moltres. At present, the Zapdos event is about to end in a few days, having started a couple of weeks ago, and the Moltres event is in full swing with it having started just a few days ago; the one for Articuno will certainly start in due time. The game's login screen is also showing these three birds above Theia Sky Ruins for the purpose of promoting the events and occasion of getting them to be able to play with them in all the game's modes and maps.
Having the three birds in fully playable form certainly increases the number of fully playable Legendary Pokémon in the game, and by quite a bit with the successive additions as in this case. As for the three birds having the above roles, they are the "standard three" that are expected in a usual five-on-five battle, so any of them can be used to meet the expectation; obviously not all three at once are expected in the same battle for a team (especially if other restrictions are in play), but any or all of them could be handy for players with role experience.
With their presence now in full playability and not just partial as with the presence in the Catch 'Em map, the "Legendary Flight" takes to a much greater height in Pokémon Unite, particularly with the potential that they hold, if the partial playability (for Articuno and Zapdos) is already an indication of that. Moltres then completes the trio and its dimension in actual gameplay, and players will have to prepare themselves for the potential tricks that they may hold in that regard. Yet that may be a good (and major) thing for the context of the major anniversary.
