The news comes as the "Pokémon: BW: Adventures in Unova and Beyond" anime season is set to show the American debuts of Pokémon from the Kalos region, months after the Japanese airdate.
As Latinos Post reported, Kalos-based journalist Alexa and her Gogoat and Helioptile have made their debut on the anime series despite the show still focused on the fifth-generation "Black and White" saga. Alexa and her Pokémon made their first appearance in July on TV Tokyo, but will appear on Cartoon Network in the U.S. on Oct. 12, which falls on the worldwide release date of "Pokémon X and Y."

The "Pokémon X" and "Pokémon Y" video games will be released in Australia, Europe, Japan, and North America for the Nintendo 3DS and the new announced Nintendo 2DS.
