Talonflame players don’t seem to be connected to the rest of the jungler roles though. Greninja and Absol on the other hand have overlap with Lucario players. Cinderace continues to have connections outside of the jungler role with significant overlap among Pikachu players. The jungle is one of the most contained sections of the overlap graph: Absol, Cinderace, Dragonite and Greninja all saw significant player overlap. Before Greninja it was Talonflame, and before Talonflame it was Duraludon. This isn’t that odd historically: the jungle has always been a meta that sees wide swings and dominating usage of only one or two Pokémon. The fourth season of Pokémon UNITE started with Greninja dominating the jungle and ended with Absol strangling the meta. | Provided by Maxwell Kappes The reign of Absol and Greninja Player overlap among specific Pokemon among players on Season 4.
