In the [[core series]] Pokémon games, Pokémon can be released using the [[Pokémon Storage System]]. However, a Pokémon cannot be released if it is the only Pokémon in the player's [[party]]. Once the Pokémon is released, it is removed from the player's possession and cannot be encountered again. Releasing a Pokémon is useful if a player needs to free up space in the Pokémon Storage System. [[Pokémon Egg|Pokémon Eggs]] cannot be released within these games.

====Pokémon Yellow====
In {{game|Yellow}}, it's not possible to release the [[Starter Pokémon|starter]] {{p|Pikachu}}, or any other Pikachu with the same [[original Trainer]] and original Trainer ID as the player. If the player tries to release it, Pikachu complains and the attempt fails, but this doesn't affect Pikachu's [[friendship]]. Pikachu may still be traded to another game and released there (including a separate Pokémon Yellow game with a different Trainer name and/or ID). If Pikachu is traded to another game, evolves into {{p|Raichu}}, and is traded back to its original game, it can be released normally in its original game.

Pikachu may be released normally like any other Pokémon in the {{jpn|Pokémon Stadium|Japanese Pokémon Stadium}}, the {{eng|Pokémon Stadium|English Pokémon Stadium}}, or [[Pokémon Stadium 2]], connected to Pokémon Yellow via [[Transfer Pak]].

In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!|Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], releasing Pokémon is also called transferring, like in Pokémon GO. A player can transfer up to 30 Pokémon at once to [[Professor Oak]], who will award one stat-specific [[Candy]] (of varying sizes) for each Pokémon transferred, each Candy's stat corresponding to what that Pokémon may yield if caught in the wild. For every 50 Pokémon of a common species the player transfers, Professor Oak will award a Candy specific to that Pokémon's species. After every transfer, Professor Oak will tell the player the total number of Pokémon that have been sent over.

The player's [[Partner Pokémon (game)|starter Pokémon]] and any [[party]] Pokémon cannot be transferred. Transferring a {{pkmn2|Shiny}}, {{pkmn2|Legendary}}, or [[Mythical Pokémon]] (other than {{p|Meltan}}<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Exz3_3plffA</ref>) will first display the warning message "''Are you really sure you want to send this Pokémon? You can't get it back!''". Attempting to transfer a Pokémon marked as [[Marking|favorite]] will display a prompt asking the player if they want to unfavorite it first.

In the Japanese Pokémon Stadium, it's not possible to release the last Pokémon in the party. The act of pressing Release and then selecting the party results in an error message if there's only one Pokémon there. However, in the English Pokémon Stadium and Pokémon Stadium 2, it is possible to release the whole party and then move Pokémon from the Boxes to the party, or alternatively just release all Pokémon from the party and the Boxes. In these last two games, if the party is empty, the act of releasing Pokémon can't be saved—the option "Save and quit" becomes unavailable.

Even though the {{ga|Red's Pikachu|starter Pikachu}} from {{game|Yellow}} is unable be released in its own game, it can be released normally like any other Pokémon in any of the three games of the Pokémon Stadium series. Similarly, Pokémon Eggs may be released in Pokémon Stadium 2 despite being unable to be released within any main series game.
