===In the field===
A Poké Flute's single purpose in the field is to wake up {{status|Sleep|sleeping}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, specifically two {{p|Snorlax}} sleeping on {{rt|12|Kanto}} and {{rt|16|Kanto}}. Doing this is the only way to progress southward in the game, since these Pokémon are blocking the routes, as well as the only way to battle a wild Snorlax. In {{game|Yellow}}, it can also wake up [[Red's Pikachu|the player's Pikachu]].

In the [[Generation II]] Pokémon games as well as their remakes {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, this purpose is fulfilled by the radio function of the [[Pokégear]]. An [[EXPN Card]] is required for this, and the Poké Flute is on channel 20 in Kanto.

In [[Pokémon X and Y]], the player has to get the Poké Flute from the [[Parfum Palace]] and deliver it to its owner, a {{tc|Black Belt}}, who will use it to wake up a Snorlax that is blocking {{rt|7|Kalos}}. Unlike in the Generation I games and their remakes, the Poké Flute isn't a keepable item, and will only be in the player's possession while its being delivered.

A Poké Flute was used by the [[hippie]] in ''[[EP041|Wake Up Snorlax!]]''. He performed concerts with it in exchange for food. Later, he used it to help restart the flow of a river by waking up a Snorlax that was blocking the river.

===In Pokémon Origins===
The Poké Flute was seen two time, although briefly, in the [[Pokémon Origins]] mini-series. It first appeared close to the end of ''[[PO02]]'', where Mr. Fuji gave it to {{OBP|Red|Origins}} as a thanks for saving him and the Pokémon Tower from Team Rocket. Red later used the Flute in ''[[PO03]]'' to wake up a Snorlax, which he presumably {{pkmn2|caught}}.
