In other Event News, CoroCoro revealed two big ones:
Magearna:
First, those in Japan who attend the next Pokemon movie will receive a Ga-Ole disc which QR code can be scanned in Sun & Moon to get a Magearna! It'll have its Signature Ability, Soul Heart (doesn't say what it does), and the moves Fleur Cannon (no info on this either), Flash Cannon, Lucky Chant, & Helping Hand.

Sun & Moon thread I discussed my thoughts on it.
Election Greninja:
The distributed Greninja who won the recent Japanese Pokemon elections will have its Hidden Ability, Protean, and the moves Hydro Pump, Gunk Shot, Mat Block, & Happy Hour. In other words you can probably breed and train a better Greninja than what you'll get cause Happy Hour is useless unless you want to grind money. You know, since the Japanese get events all the time I guess this is no big deal, but if this happened in the states I would be SO p1$$3d. Which is why if they do the Election thing internationally (which I hope they do) we either end up getting a Mythical Pokemon or they do something special with the Pokemon that wins we can get in-game normally (seriously, there's nothing inherently wrong with an Event Pokemon getting a special move, if its a normal Pokemon it actually makes it worth a damn because otherwise we can breed & train one that would be better. Like if we got Greninja give it Origin Pulse or Night Daze or even Recover would be nice).
