Mewtwo will be appearing in a new Exclusive Raid Battle feature. It’s similar to regular Raid Battles, but players are invited to join these events. Invitations can be received by recently completing a raid and defeating the Raid Boss at the Gym where the Exclusive Raid Battle will be taking place.

The ARMS Twitter account just posted another update containing the image above. It certainly looks like a new stage, doesn’t it?

The tweet has Biff talking about being on vacation and hearing that there is a fighter around here. He also mentions the sweet scent and exoticism in the air.

Everything points to this being related to a new fighter, who will likely be accompanied by a new stage as well. It does line up with what we heard from the datamine last week.
