The new Pokémon

Update: A press email from The Pokémon Company International says the following:

“ This new Pokémon shares many traits with Mewtwo and it's suspected that the newly discovered Pokémon has a connection with Mewtwo—a powerful Pokémon that debuted in Pokémon Red and Pokémon Blue.

What is this new Pokémon? How will you encounter it in Pokémon X and Pokémon Y? When will you know more? One thing is clear, your readers will certainly want to debate the meaning of this new Pokémon! ”
