The Pokemon Aegislash will be distributed at the 2014 Pokemon World Championships by local wireless distribution.

Here are details of Aegislash from Pokemon.com:

“The Lv. 50 Aegislash is well-built for Double Battles, especially because it can use Wide Guard. This move protects Aegislash and any allies in play from attacks that target multiple Pokémon per turn. It’s really difficult for Aegislash to learn this move through normal gameplay—it’s only available as an Egg Move, and multiple steps are required!”

Aegislash has the Ability Stance Change, and carries a Sitrus Berry. At Lv. 50, it has the moves Wide Guard, King’s Shield, Shadow Ball, and Flash Cannon.
