Only the Japanese version of HeartGold and SoulSilver has slot machines; in the Korean and Western releases, the Game Corner hosts a game called [[Voltorb Flip]] instead.

Slot machines in the remakes of the second generation games play differently than in their originals. Pressing A stops the reels from left to right; however, the Control Pad controls both coin insertion and reel starting. Additionally, slot machine payouts can actually vary per machine, and are typically more in line with the [[Sinnoh]] games as opposed to the original Generation II games.

As players use the slot machine, a {{p|Smeargle}} depicted on the top screen and seen painting can change the background of the top screen's monitor, and any change in background changes slot effects. A green background signals normal play, a red background signals that it's easier to obtain a 7 or [[Poké Ball]], and a blue background signals that it's easier to obtain a {{p|Pikachu}} or {{p|Marill}}.

Smeargle has an 8-bit signed integer mood value, which starts at 0. When at 0 or lower, the mood value increases by 1 with each spin unless a winning combination occurs. When the mood value is positive, it will increase by a varying amount whenever two Poké Balls or two 7's line up on the first two reels, but the third reel stops in a way that results in a loss. <!--Needs more investigation as to the magnitude of the increase.-->  Its mood value must be positive for a background change to occur; the higher its mood value, the more likely a background change will occur. <!-- Minimum value for a background change might be greater than 1, needs more investigation. --> After a background change, its mood value will reset to a random negative value, usually between -1 and -15. Smeargle will pop up thought balloons depending on its mood value after each spin, unless its mood value is 0.
