The Pokémon Company International has announced that Xerneas and Yveltal will be the next legendary Pokémon to feature in the yearlong celebration of the series' mythical creatures. The best part of all this? You can grab both 'mon for your game files in Pokémon Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun, or Ultra Moon.

First appearing in Pokémon X and Pokémon Y, these legendary creatures are well worth adding to your collection. To get your hands on the mythical duo, check out the details below:

UK: Available from GAME stores from 4th May - 26th May
Ireland: Available from GameStop stores from 4th May - 26th May
US: Available from GameStop stores from 4th May - 27th May
Canada: Available from EB Games stores from 4th May - 27th May

It is worth noting that owners of Pokémon Ultra Sun or Pokémon Sun will receive Yveltal, while owners of Pokémon Ultra Moon or Pokémon Moon will receive Xerneas. These creatures aren't available in these versions naturally - with Xerneas only available in Ultra Sun and Yveltal only available in Ultra Moon - so this is a great chance to get them if you don't want to trade with others.

It has also been confirmed that the next distribution in June will be for Zygarde. More details on that will follow in time.

Will you be adding these impressive monsters to your team?
