Every generation of Pokemon has had a set of 3 pokemon that were only available once (don't be fooled, the Space Rocks are in multiples, but still very rare).
Gen 1 had the Legendary Birds,
Gen 2 had the Legendary Beasts,
Gen 3 had the Regis, and
Gen 4 had the Traits (or whatever they're supposed to be)
Gen 5 shall have: The Virtues!
The Virtues are said to be dwelling in a temple in the Ruins of Menoetius, where it was said that the Message of The Virtues was preached. The Virtue Pokemon are considered living examples of how people should be and act from day to day if they want to have better lives.
Pyetaz, the Devotion Pokemon, named for Roman goddess of Piety, Pietas
Psychic/Steel
Ability: Loyalty (new ability, unique to Pyetaz); when in double battles, Atk goes up 1 stage when ally is hurt.
Pyetaz learns many moves that involve the theme of loyalty, helping and giving. Return is the very first move it will learn, followed by Baton Pass and Helping Hand. Later moves include Present and Healing Wish, along with its own unique move, Charity. Charity allows Pyetaz to heal itself (and a partner in double battles) completely so long as it gives up 2 stages worth of Atk and Spec Atk stats.
There are many TM and HM moves it can learn, but not all of them have been explored. Secret Power and Cut are certainly on the list, and Surf, Whirlpool, and Waterfall are certainly not.
Ayedoz, the Humility Pokemon, named for Greek goddess of modesty, Aidos
Psychic/Steel
Ability: Humble (new ability, unique to Ayedoz); when in double battles, always goes after ally, even when Spd stat is higher
Many of Ayedoz's moves are of Priority 0 or less, like Focus Punch, or must always go last, such as Counter and Mirror Coat. Ayedoz's unique move is Respect, in which it raises the opponent's Speed stat, but confuses them at the same time.
However, its speed stat is not low by any means, so taught moves like Thunder will go first (unless the enemy's speed is higher, of course), but Ayedoz's nature is like Wobbuffets, were it prefers to go after the enemy the majority of the time.
Viritaz, the Honesty Pokemon, named for Roman goddess of Truth, Veritas
Psychic/Steel
Ability: Forewarn
Moves such as Foresight, Safeguard, and Refresh are used, so that there are no hindrances, such as evasion stat boosts or status changes. Viritaz prefers even playing fields in those cases, so that only the main stats of Atk, Def, Spec Atk, Spec Def, Spd and move Accuracy can affect the battle; moves like Double Team or Will-o-wisp are seen as "dirty tactics" by Viritaz, and it does not want to lose because a burn or poison made it faint. Luster Purge is also found in its moveset, as is its own unique move, Candor. This move allows the following move Viritaz uses to work without fail, at the sacrifice of an extra PP of that technique. Therefore, if Candor precedes Zap Cannon, it will hit, so long as 2PP are used.
