The X and Y show just released their theme song yesterday on YouTube with the return of the "Gotta Catch Em' All" song.
In the video they also announced the Pokemon X and Y code hunt, although no additional information is available.
More Pokemon X and Y game details were leaked when pictures of a Japanese magazine showed a new type of Pokemon and the starters for the game.
The latest issue of Japanese magazine CoroCoro reveals there will be two MewTwo evolution forms, Mega MewTwo X and Mega MewTwo Y, as well as exclusive items in each of the games. Two of those items are Mewtwonite X and MewTwonite Y, stones that will evolve the regular version.
Last week the original starter trio from the first Pokemon games were announced to get a new evolutionary form: Charmander, Squirtle, and Bulbasaur.
Director of Game Freak Junichi Masuda revealed a new Nintendo 3DS app called Pokemon Bank, which will allow players store up to 3,000 Pokemon online. Up to 100 boxes of Pokemon are allowed at once, and players may exchange data between different copies of the game.
Pokemon Bank users can also use the Poke Transporter app as well, according to Polygon.
