Onto the reveals now and the types ofXerneasandYveltalhave been disclosed.Xerneas is Fairy typeandYveltal is Dark/Flying type. Respectively they have the abilitiesFairy Aurawhich powers up Fairy type moves andDark Aurawhich powers up Dark type moves. Exclusive moves have also been revealed: Xerneas can learnGeo Controland Yveltal can learnDeath Wing(translations).
Also on current Pokemon,Clauncherwill be exclusive to Pokemon X whileSkrelpwill be exclusive to Pokemon Y. Honedge will have the abilityNo Guard, which ensures all moves it uses and all attacks it receives will hit. This means it wont have immunity from Poison-type attacks (although since its part Ghost type they will be not very effective).

The evolution method is apparently a new type we havent yet seen, though details were not revealed. It has the ability Iron Fist.
