Talon Esports, a prominent Southeast Asia-based organization, has officially expanded its competitive footprint by entering the Pokémon UNITE esports scene. The organization has secured a professional roster based in the Philippines to represent its brand in regional competitions. This strategic move aligns with the organization's broader portfolio, which already includes established teams in titles such as League of Legends, Valorant, Dota 2, and Arena of Valor.
The newly signed team is scheduled to debut during the APAC-EAST regional qualifiers, taking place April 15–16, 2023. The primary objective for this roster is to secure a qualification spot for the Pokémon World Championship Series 2023.
