After a flurry of Pokemon activity this week at E3, the Electronic Entertainment Expo in Los Angeles, The Pokemon Company International and Nintendo have announced new details for their upcoming duo launch of Pokemon X and Y for the 3DS.

Among the flurry of information is the reveal of the first Gym Leader players will encounter on their adventure, named Viola who resides in the city of Santalune.

A professional photographer who specializes in Pokémon photography, Viola presides over the Santalune City Gym, whose interior is constructed from threads like spiderwebs, strung together tightly above the darkness. Players will need to find a safe path through these threads, and will receive useful advice from Viola when they battle her.

Alongside the first Gym Leader, five new Pokemon were also showcased including the reveal of new Bug- and Flying-type Pokemon Vivillon as well as Flabebe, a Fairy-type Pokemon who "lives atop a flower that it chooses soon after it's born and will care for its entire life."

For more on these Pokemon, check out the full press release over here but also gaze your eyes down to the newest gameplay trailer. Pokemon X and Y will be available on 3DS this October.
