It has been a while since any new leaks or information surrounding upcoming legendary for Pokemon X and Y.
And while the original hacker "smea' who had reportedly found the three new Pokemons Diancie, Hoopa, and Volcanion, Now, new information has been released via Pokebeach.com, which details the three Pokemons.
According to the post, the information has already been with the source way back, but had to hold off releasing to the public--which can hint that the legendaries are not fake and may be coming to Pokemon X and Y game.
Diancie is a rock/fairy type known as a Jewel Pokemon, since it can create many diamonds by compressing carbon between its hands. Diamond Storm is its signature move, where it first creates a bunch of diamonds before throwing it at the enemy.
The move has a 100 power and 95% accuracy. Diancie can learn other moves like Moonblast, Light Screen, and Safeguard.
The second Pokemon is Hoopa, a psychic/ghost type and also a Mischief Pokemon. It can manipulate space and teleport things, and make use of Hyperspace Hole, its signature move in Pokemon X and Y. To do this, Hoopa creates a hole in the ground, goes through it, and comes out behind the enemy to hit them--like an elaborate teleportation trick.

Hoopa can learn three new moves, Psychic, Shadow Ball, and Trick Room, as well as break through an opponent's Protect and Detect defense in Pokemon X and Y.
The last Pokemon is a fire/water type, Volcanion, who is said to be powerful enough to blow down a mountain from the steam that it emits from the arms on its back. Using Steam Eruption, which is a special Water-type attack, it can deliver 110 power and 95% accuracy, and leave the opponent with a burn.
Volcanion can learn three new tricks, Flare Blitz, Explosion, and Overheat. One interesting point to take note of is that Volcanion has a hand in the blackouts in Lumiose City.

The anti-Pokemon game, part 2, from PETA
If you want a break from playing Pokemon X and Y, there's another game that also makes use of Pokemons, but this time, supposedly "the right way," at least according to PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals).
According to Anime News Network, the second Pokemon parody game has been released a few days after the Pokemon X and Y was released. It's a flash game that now involves McDonald's into the mix.
*The Xbox One is heading to China. Will Sony also make its move for the PS4? Read the story here.
According to Kotaku, the inclusion of McDonald's seems to be connected to the way it makes use of the icons from Pokemon for its Happy Meal toys.
"For generations, humans have loved Pokemon, but if Pokemon came to our world and saw how we treated animals, would they love us back? Be a hero for real-life animals by pledging to try vegan," said PETA on the parody game's page.
