In every [[core series]] Pokémon game, players have been able to release previously captured Pokémon. Unlike the anime, this cannot be done while traveling, but must be done with the [[Pokémon Storage System]] (usually in a [[Pokémon Center]]). A Pokémon cannot be released if it is the only Pokémon in the player's [[party]], however. In addition, in [[Generation III]] and [[Generation IV]], the player cannot release a Pokémon if it is the only Pokémon in their party or PC that knows certain [[HM]] moves. In Generation III, these moves are {{m|Surf}} and {{m|Dive}}. In Generation IV, they are Surf, {{m|Waterfall}}, and {{m|Rock Climb}}, as well as {{m|Fly}} in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}. | In every [[core series]] Pokémon game, players have been able to release previously captured Pokémon.

Released Pokémon cannot be found again in the wild. The only exception is in {{g|Mystery Dungeon}}, where if a [[legendary Pokémon]] is released from its [[Friend Area]] or Chimecho Assembly, it will reappear in the dungeon that it can be fought, save those who only join once when they ask to. | Released Pokémon cannot be found again in the wild.
