Last week, The Pokémon Company announced a special Pokémon Presents presentation, featuring Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, and Pokémon Legends Arceus, would be airing on their YouTube channel from 6am Pacific Daylight Time on Wednesday August 18. But if you don't live in the Americas, and/or if you're just bad at doing timezone conversions, knowing the time in PDT might not be all that particularly helpful. So for your convenience, we've compiled below a quick list of conversions for the most common timezones of Bulbagarden users, so you can quickly identify when the presentation starts for you.
