Pokemon Unite helps kids practice and improve the following skills:

Self-Awareness: Participating and cooperating with other people. 

Because so much of Pokemon Unite takes place with real people online, the player needs to use their self-awareness skills to effectively participate within a team. Trying to accomplish everything on your own will not work in this game, and the player needs to listen to the cues of the other players and determine what role they will play within the group in order to ensure the greatest possibility of success. 

Players also need to be able to use self-awareness to determine whether other team members are cooperative and participating as well. If the player is on a team with people who are not willing to work together, they need to be able to determine whether they want to continue playing or try another team who might be more cooperative.

Planning: Problem solving and dealing with obstacles. 

Because Pokemon Unite is a strategy game, having a plan for attack and defense will significantly increase your chances of success in battle. Each Pokemon has a specific strength that can help determine what their role is within the battle and what the player will focus on during the fight. For example, if you are playing with Pikachu, you may be focusing on attacking while your teammates focus on defending your side’s goals from the enemy. Players who struggle with planning should try to pick a Pokemon they used in the training sessions until they feel comfortable branching out and trying new things; this can help plan your attack or defense based on what you know about the Pokemon you are already comfortable using.
