To go along with this announcement the first dub trailer for the movie has been released and can be seen below. The movie will be going by the name of Genesect and the Legend Awakened outside of Japan.


The movie is the sixteenth Pokémon movie in total and is the final movie set during Ash's adventures in Unova. As the title suggests it features Genesect as the star Pokémon, but its also joined by Mewtwo. The movie also shows Mewtwo Mega Evolving into Mega Mewtwo.
