Recommended Videos

Yesterday, we reported that a "massive shock" Pokémon announcement was to be expected on next Sunday’s episode of Pokémon Smash in Japan. Serebii.net brings an update on this situation, which suggests this may not be as big of a shocker as TV Tokyo say.

 

Serebii says the official Pokémon Smash site states that game information will indeed will be revealed during next week’s episode. That said, today’s episode of Pokémon Smash mentioned that Mewtwo will be given away soon through an event that will be detailed next week.

 

Additionally, a preview of next week’s episode showed director, Junichi Masuda carrying a censored sign with a caption saying there would be a reveal of the present. At this point, it does sound like the Mewtwo giveaway will be “massive shock” announcement. We’ll keep our eyes open for further updates.
