What is Daily Red? How to play the daily Pokémon battle game for free

What is Daily Red? How to play the daily Pokémon battle game for free

TL;DR: Daily Red is a free, daily Pokémon battle game where everyone gets one chance a day to defeat Red on Mt. Silver. Red’s team stays the same, but your lineup is randomly generated every 24 hours — forcing you to win with whatever random squad you’re dealt. If your morning browser routine already includes Wordle or the Mini Crossword, there is a new fan-made puzzle game making the rounds among Pokémon fans. Daily Red takes the ultimate end-game boss fight from the top of Mt. Silver and turns it into a daily tactical challenge. Instead of spending weeks raising your personal dream team, the game drops you straight into a Level 100 showdown against Red. The catch? You do not get to pick your party. Every 24 hours, every player worldwide is handed the exact same randomly generated lineup of six Pokémon. Your job is to figure out how to pilot whatever unusual, bench-warming team you’ve been dealt to victory. Is Daily Red an official Pokémon game? No. Daily Red is an unofficial, free-to-play …

The Red Pony by John Steinbeck

The Red Pony by John Steinbeck

The Red Pony by John Steinbeck opens with Jody Tiflin, aged ten, being picked out of sleep by the triangle that calls the ranch to breakfast. It does not occur to him to disobey it. Nobody he knows ever has. That is the second page of The Red Pony by John Steinbeck, and it sets the terms: a world of fixed roles on a Salinas Valley ranch, a boy inside it who has been taught that adults are reliable, and four stories dedicated to taking that apart. The Four Stories of The Red Pony, and What Each Removes The Red Pony by John Steinbeck is not a novel, and reading it as one flattens it. It is four pieces, written separately between 1933 and 1937 and gathered with a fourth in 1945. The Gift. Jody is given a red pony, and Billy Buck, the ranch hand who knows everything about horses, promises it will be fine out in the corral. It rains. The pony sickens. Billy opens its windpipe on the kitchen table with a …

Rare red bat rescued in Maine gobbles up mealworms

Rare red bat rescued in Maine gobbles up mealworms

A rare Eastern red bat (Lasiurus borealis) is recovering after being found struggling in the surf on a Maine beach. Earlier this week, the Center for Wildlife in Cape Neddick, Maine, shared new footage of the winged mammal chowing down on a hearty plate of mealworms—a good sign for her recovery. “She was very lethargic upon admission, and is now feisty and active,” Kristen Lamb, the Center for Wildlife’s Executive Director tells Popular Science. “She has been eating well, and responding to treatment including fluid therapy, temperature regulation and a specific bat habitat that allows her to mimic natural behaviors and reduces stress.” Mealworms are the larval form of the yellow mealworm beetle and a common bat food. To keep these mealworm meals close to what a bat would be eating in the wild, the team even supplements what the worms themselves eat. This way, the nutrients inside of bugs resembles the contents of wild insects versus store-bought mealworms.   Eastern red bats like this one are one of eight bat species found in and around …

Yemen forces reclaim Red Sea port city of Mokha from Houthis

Yemeni security forces escort buses carrying released Houthi-aligned detainees as they arrive in Sana’a on September 12, 2026. Mohammed Hamoud | Getty Images News | Getty Images Yemen government forces said they’ve reclaimed the strategic port city of Mokha from the Iran-backed Houthis, seeking to loosen the militant group’s grip on a critically important Red Sea oil route. In a lightning advance, the Saudi Arabia-backed government said Monday that its forces had taken control of Mokha “following fierce battles against Iranian-backed Houthi terrorist militia” and had captured a number of key locations on the coast around Bab el-Mandeb Strait. Yemen government forces said they had also launched a “strategic offensive” on the country’s capital of Sanaa, which the Houthis have held since 2014. CNBC could not independently verify the claims. The Houthis have reportedly denied that Mokha had fallen. Situated about 75 kilometers (46 miles) north of the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, Mokha is historically known as the region’s chief coffee-exporting center, and the source of the term mocha. Along with other key sites, the port …
