The first mega for a Kalos Pokémon is finally here, and Hawlucha is an amazing pick. Love that it's leaning even further into the lucha libre style. But now don't show anything else until the game games out!

    Like previous games, SEGA has dropped a 5-minute animation for Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds, and it's phenomenal. I love that the Babylon Rogues are back, and Shadow just destroying everyone was awesome! 22nd of September can't come soon enough.
