Every [[Pokémon Trainer]] is allowed to access a Pokémon Storage System set up by either [[Bill]] in [[Johto]] and [[Kanto]], [[Lanette]] in [[Hoenn]], [[Bebe]] in [[Sinnoh]], [[Amanita]] in [[Unova]], or [[Cassius]] in [[Kalos]].

Until the player meets the regional PC developer, the Pokémon Storage System option will appear as "Someone's PC", while afterwards, it will appear as the developer's PC ("Bill's PC" and so on). The player can withdraw or deposit Pokémon in a number of Boxes, allowing them to own more Pokémon than just the six permitted in their [[party]]. When a Pokémon is {{pkmn2|caught}} but the player's party is full, the Pokémon will be sent directly to the last Box that was accessed on the PC; from Generation III onward, if this Box is full, the Pokémon will be placed in the next free Box; in Generations I and II, the Pokémon cannot be caught in the first place.

The amount of items that can be deposited is limited though. In [[Generation]]s {{gen|I}}, {{gen|II}}, and {{gen|III}}, a player is only able to store 50 types of items in the PC.

In Generations {{gen|I}} and {{gen|III}}, the player starts the game with a [[Potion]] in their PC.


In [[Generation IV]], the Item Storage System is no longer necessary since the Bag has nearly unlimited space for all items. Instead, the player's PC manages only [[Mail]], [[Seal]]s, and [[Photography|photos]]{{sup/4|HGSS}}.

In the {{pkmn|anime}}, the PC is not frequently used by {{pkmn|Trainer}}s as it is by {{player}}s in the {{pkmn|games}}, since most characters are shown to leave their {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with a person they trust rather than using the [[Pokémon Storage System]]. {{Ash}}, for instance, tends to keep {{cat|Ash's Pokémon|his Pokémon}} at [[Professor Oak's Laboratory]], and {{an|May}} has left some of {{cat|May's Pokémon|her Pokémon}} under the care of her [[mother]], [[Caroline]], at the [[Petalburg Gym]].

PCs are sometimes used for communication rather than by calling on a {{wp|videophone}}. For example, in ''[[EP169|Beauty and the Breeder]]'', {{an|Brock}} is shown using an {{wp|email}} account on the PC to keep in contact with [[Suzie]]; in ''[[EP134|Charizard's Burning Ambitions]]'', Brock asks {{jo|Liza}} for her email address; and in ''[[AG121|Hi Ho Silver Wind]]'', {{an|May}} mentions to her mother that she keeps in touch with her friends by e-mail, in addition to phone calls and letters.

In ''[[EP269|The Ties That Bind]]'', Ash is shown using a PC to look up {{Gary}}'s profile.
In ''[[EP056|The Ultimate Test]]'', the people taking the [[Pokémon League Admissions Exam]] had to answer true-or-false questions on a computer as a way to test their knowledge on Pokémon. In ''[[EP269|The Ties That Bind]]'', Ash was shown using a PC to look up {{Gary}}'s profile. In ''[[AG123|Rhapsody in Drew]]'', [[James]] used his laptop to look up information on {{ho|Robert}} and his Pokémon.


PCs were used more often in the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}. In ''[[DP041|A Stand-Up Sit-Down!]]'', [[Zoey]] used her laptop to access the official [[Pokémon Contest]] website and show {{an|Dawn}} a video of a [[Double Performance]] delivered by [[Top Coordinator]] {{jo|Marina}}. In ''[[DP133|Uncrushing Defeat!]]'', {{Ash}} used the PC of a library inside the [[Lake Acuity]] [[Pokémon Center]] to search information on the [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Uxie}}.
