Days of the week

Current day of the week (UTC):
Su	Mo	Tu	We	Th	Fr	Sa
Today is Tuesday

The seven days of the week are as important in the Pokémon world as they are in reality. Like the real world, certain events will only happen on select days, and certain characters will only appear some days. All Generation II and Generation IV handheld games feature this, which is expected to not be absent from Generation V and onward due to the time and date in the game being determined by the handheld system itself.
