So, Nintendo officially revealed what appears to be a new form of Mewtwo. Officially, they claim that it’s a brand new Pokemon with a connection to Mewtwo, but it’s worth remembering that they pulled this kind of stunt before. In any case, the Operation Rainfall Retro Commercial Research Team (in other words, me) took the opportunity to take another look at old Pokemon commercials. So sit back and relax as we take a look at the Generation II in this week’s Retro Wrap-Up.
