Battle and held goods for Pokémon Unite: tier list, uses, and descriptions

Pokémon Unite is about to arrive, bringing with it some fierce 5v5 bouts where cooperation is essential to winning.

Which Pokémon Unite held goods are the best?

Even if there aren't many held things accessible just now, there are still enough to rank. While some of these items are almost worthless, others are real standouts that have the power to turn the tide of combat. The bottom of the barrel is completely useless; in fact, since they don't save lives, they could even contribute to your demise.

Rank    Pokémon Unite items
S Rocky helmet, muscle band, float stone
A Buddy barrier, scope lens, focus band, assault vest, wise glasses
B Attack weight, aeos cookie, leftovers, score shield
C Sp attack specs, exp share, energy amplifier
