Azure Flute: Difference between revisions

For the Arceus event, [[Mystery Gift]] must be used to receive a [[Wonder Card]] with the Azure Flute, which should then be retrieved from the [[Poké Mart]] deliveryman (as modifying the [[Save|save file]] to directly add the Azure Flute to the [[Bag]] will not affect the flag responsible for activating the event). The player must also enter the [[Hall of Fame]] and obtain the [[National Pokédex]] to be able to use the Azure Flute.

When the player reaches the [[Spear Pillar]] at the top of [[Mt. Coronet]] and steps one tile north from the entrance, {{ga|Lucas|he}} or {{ga|Dawn|she}} will be prompted to use the flute, which will play a unique and eerie tune and reload the Spear Pillar map with a steep staircase that leads to the Hall of Origin. After it is used and once Arceus is caught, the Azure Flute will no longer trigger the entrance to the Hall of Origin when played at the Spear Pillar and the message "''The Azure Flute echoed hollowly...''" will appear. Should the player knock out Arceus, then the Azure Flute can be used to summon Arceus again.

===Distribution===

As the Azure Flute was never distributed, it can only be obtained with the use of [[cheating]].

 

[[Junichi Masuda]] revealed in an interview with Nintendo World Report in 2013 that the Azure Flute was thought to be too confusing for players to use, leading to the decision to not distribute it.<ref>[http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/interview/35513/pokemon-x-and-y-interview-with-game-freak Pokémon X and Y Interview with Game Freak - Interview - Nintendo World Report] ([https://archive.today/dFokT archived copy])</ref>

 

Despite the Azure Flute never having been distributed, the [[Wonder Card]] text for the {{DL|List of American region serial code event Pokémon distributions in Generation VI|Arceus}} distributed during Pokémon's {{pkmn|20th Anniversary}} made reference to it.
