How to watch the Pokémon Presents livestream on Wednesday

The Pokémon Company had plenty to announce at a livestream event last week, but it will have more to share on Wednesday, June 24.

The company will hold its next Pokémon Presents livestream at 9 a.m. ET on Wednesday on YouTube. You can also come back to this page, which will livestream the event below.

“We have (more) Pokémon news,” The Pokémon Company wrote in a caption accompanying the livestream page. “You want (more) Pokémon news.”

Details are scant on what The Pokémon Company has in the works for Wednesday, and the game developer has been quiet on its plans, but it’s somewhat surprising it has more to share after it made a host of major announcements last week.

During its first Pokémon Presents last week, the game company said the wildly popular Nintendo 64 title Pokémon Snap is getting a sequel. The new game, called New Pokémon Snap, will be available on the Nintendo Switch and allow players to snap pictures of a variety of Pokémon in their natural habitat. The company hasn’t said when the game will launch.

Additionally, The Pokémon Company announced a free mobile app called Pokémon Smile that aims at helping children do a better job at brushing their teeth. I took the app for a spin with my two sons and while they liked the idea of “saving” Pokémon from harmful bacteria, it quickly lost its appeal.

Another game, called Pokémon Cafe Mix, is launching on both iOS and Android, as well as the Nintendo Switch, on Wednesday. It’s a free-to-play game that places players in the role of a café owner that Pokémon both work at and patronize. As players solve more puzzles, they unlock more perks to improve their cafés and attract more Pokémon.

Aside from that, The Pokémon Company also used the event to announce a digital-only Pokémon Go Fest, a two-day event for Pokémon Go players to find new characters. The company also said that The Isle of Armor, the first part of the Pokémon Sword Expansion Pass and Pokémon Shield Expansion Pass is also available.

Be sure to check back tomorrow morning for all the details on the second Pokémon Presents. And watch it live here:

How to use an external hard drive on PS5
Two versions of the PS5 side by side.

The PlayStation 5 is a remarkable system, but it doesn't come with much storage space. Breaking from the 1TB the Xbox Series X offers, the PS5 only offers 825GB. Worse, after accounting for the storage space the PS5 takes up by default, users are left with just over 650GB of space.

You could install a new SSD in your PlayStation 5, selecting from the best SSDs available, but using external storage to expand your space is simpler. In this guide, we're going to show you how to use an external hard drive on PS5.

The best Game Boy Color games of all time
Gameboy Color.

In the early days, Nintendo was unchallenged in the handheld market. Just looking at the best Game Boy games will explain how this simple system managed to sell for so long, but eventually, it needed a little upgrade. We wouldn't get a true next-gen handheld until the eventual Game Boy Advanced (make sure not to miss our list of the best GBA games), but we did receive a small improvement with the Game Boy Color.

Despite its short lifespan, the Game Boy Color managed to get several great games, including some of the best Pokémon games and the best Zelda games, most of which we still consider some of the best games of all time. In fact, some are even better than the best 3DS games or best Switch games, and they're certainly still worth tracking down.

The best multiplayer games on Switch
Mario and his friends.

Part of the Nintendo Switch's appeal is its versatility -- you can play it at home on your TV or on the go in portable mode. This versatility also applies to multiplayer and the best co-op games, which can be played with single Joy-Con controllers, in tabletop mode, and wirelessly both online and locally. Better yet, many of the best Switch games are also cross-platform games between other consoles and PCs.

And while the Switch might not be the competitive powerhouse that the best PS5 games and best Xbox Series X games are, it still offers an incredible library of multiplayer games. In fact, the portable console is home to some of the best co-op experiences we've seen in this generation, and new competitive games are being added all the time. Here are our favorites, whether you're a fan of raucous racing games, mellow simulators, or monster-hunting titles of the finest caliber.
