    Cry again (in English) as Ash and Pikachu sign off.

    Ash and Pikachu hung up their pokéballs in the Japanese version of the show earlier this year. But if you want to watch the sweet sendoff in English, the last batch of dubbed Pokémon Ultimate Journeys: The Series episodes drops today on Netflix.

    To mark the end of the era, there’s also a newly remixed version of the iconic theme song. Shut up, I’m not crying, you’re crying. They were the very best.

    Google’s adding voice memos to the Wear OS Messages app.

    The future where you speak into a wrist communicator is getting closer. While many smartwatches allow you to dictate texts on your wrist, Google says it’s rolling out voice memos on the Wear OS Messages app over the next few weeks. As noted by 9to5 Google, it’s not clear whether you’ll be able to play back any messages on the wrist.

    There are a few more minor Wear OS updates as well, which you can check out here.

    Garmin’s fall software update is here.

    One of the best things about Garmin is it often brings newer features to older models for free. Starting today, owners of the second-gen Epix, Fenix 7 series, Forerunner series, and Venu series can get some of the cool stuff introduced earlier this spring on the Epix Pro and Fenix 7 Pro. That includes the new Endurance and Hill Scores, muscle maps, weather map overlays, and... a fish forecast. You can check out the full list at the link below.

    Personally, I don’t need a Hill Score to tell me I stink at uphill running but hey, it might be more helpful for you!
