Old school Pokemon fans, prepare to be excited. One of the original legendaries, Mewtwo, will soon be available as part of a special character distribution. This powerful Psychic-type Pokemon features a unique set of moves - showcased in IGN's exclusive video (below) - and will only be available from February 12 through February 26.

Mewtwo will arrive at level 70, and will know Shadow Ball (a Ghost-type move) and Electro Ball (a move Mewtwo normally cannot learn). It will also know Psystrike - a brand new signature move that allows trainers to inflict damage depending on their opponent's Defense, and a skill that is normally only learned at Level 100.Mewtwo will come holding a King's Rock, which can occasionally cause your opponent to flinch and miss its attack. This item also helps certain Pokemon evolve, as those who've completed their Pokedex well know. Finally, Mewtwo also comes with a Premier Ribbon, a special Ribbon that can't be collected through normal gameplay.To acquire Mewtwo, all you'll need is a copy of Pokemon Black or White and access to a wireless Internet connection. You also have to have fewer than 11 wonder cards. In other words, if you have 11 wonder cards in your game - which you get automatically by participating in character distributions like this one - you'll have to delete one of them to make room (this in no way effects the Pokemon you got from that event).To actually get your Pokemon, begin your game and select "Mystery Gift" from the main menu. Note that the Mystery Gift menu is also where you can check your card album and delete wonder cards if necessary. Otherwise, click "Receive Gift," then "Yes" to open a communication channel. Once this is done, select "Get Via Nintendo WFC," then "Yes" again.Voila! Mewtwo will then appear in your game. All you'll need to do to pick up your new friend is leave an open space in your party and go speak to the deliveryman in any Pokemon Center. Remember to save your game afterward!You only have two weeks to nab the original Poke-gangster himself, so mark your calendar!
