Chespin just got a lot less cool. Hopefully the final form will make up for it.[/SPOILER]
[SPOILER="Mewtwo News"]A new form was revealed for Mewtwo, and it has been confirmed that these two forms will each be exclusive to one game. The newly-revealed Mega Mewtwo X is a Psychic/Fighting type and has the ability Steadfast. Mega Mewtwo X is exclusive to Pokémon X, and the previously-revealed form is Mega Mewtwo Y, which is exclusive to Pokémon Y.

[SPOILER="New Pokemon"]Two fossil Pokémon were also revealed. Chigorasu is a Rock/Dragon type Pokémon that resembles a T-Rex. It has the ability ‘Hard Jaw,’ which increases attack power of biting moves, and it can learn Crunch. The second is Amarusu, a Rock/Ice type Pokémon that resembles a Diplodocus and has a new ability called Freeze Skin which turns Normal type moves into Ice-type moves and raises their power. It can learn Aurora Beam.
During that last Pokémon Direct, we briefly caught a glimpse of a new dog-like Pokémon. This has been revealed as Torimian. It is a Normal type with an ability called ‘Fur Coat,’ which reduces physical damage, and apparently you can customize its appearance.
Nyaonikusu, a Psychic type, was also revealed. Nyaonikusu’s male and female forms have key differences, including the moves they learn. The male version is more of a supporter and can learn Miracle Eye, while the female is more of an attacker and can learn Extrasensory.

Team Flare has five scientists: Kuseroshiki, Momiji, Bara, Akebi, Corea, and they aim to ‘create a beautiful world.’ This fits in with the overall theme of ‘beauty’ that director Junichi Masuda has been talking about.
