Throughout the [[Pokémon anime]], a Trainer releases a Pokémon for several reasons. The Trainer may see it as weak, as [[Damian]] did with {{AP|Charmander}} and [[Paul]] with {{AP|Chimchar}}. The Pokémon may have to do something that requires it to leave (such as {{Ash}} and his {{AP|Butterfree}}, as well as Ash and his {{AP|Pidgeot}}). Another common reason is that the Pokémon does not listen, frustrating the Trainer, much like when {{an|Dawn}} caught {{TP|Dawn|Pachirisu}}. To guarantee release, some Trainers destroy the [[Poké Ball]], as seen with [[Jessie]] and her {{TP|Jessie|Dustox}}. As shown in ''[[JN059|When a House is Not a Home!]]'', Pokémon can even destroy their own Poké Balls.

Another common reason is that the Pokémon does not listen, frustrating the Trainer, much like when {{an|Dawn}} caught {{TP|Dawn|Pachirisu}}. If a Trainer chooses to release his or her Pokémon, it will be indicated by the Pokémon in question emerging from its Poké Ball in a blue light rather than the usual white light (though this only began occurring in ''[[Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl]]'').  To guarantee release, some Trainers destroy the [[Poké Ball]], as seen with [[Jessie]] and her {{TP|Jessie|Dustox}}. As shown in ''[[JN059|When a House is Not a Home!]]'', Pokémon can even destroy their own Poké Balls.


In ''[[Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon]]'', the [[Ultra Guardians]]' primary objective is to capture [[Ultra Beast]]s that find their way into [[Alola]] so they can safely be released and sent back where they came from via [[Ultra Wormhole]]s.
