This is the official reveal, at least in Japan. I think there are two others that were found via hacking but haven't been introduced yet.

Like other event Pokemon I would probably expect it to be distributed around the time the movie is released in Japan, then again here in the US when they dub it over.

Pretty sure that "certain event" was beating the game...

Which I did, but there was no New Game + option after beating it. I believe there's a certain way of unlocking it that I didn't do.

In Chrono Trigger you had to do a certain event in order to unlock the New Game + option once you beat the game. I lazed out and just beat Lavos and skipped that part of the game because i didn't feel like battling a bunch of enemies. I sorta regret that now because I didn't experience any of the other endings.
