SpotPass is a function of the Nintendo 3DS family and the Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire games.

The 3DS's SpotPass function allows a Nintendo 3DS system that is connected to the Internet to receive SpotPass data from the Internet. This requires that the system be turned on, and have SpotPass functionality enabled. If a Nintendo 3DS system has received SpotPass data for any game, the notification LED will be blue. If the system is in sleep mode, the notification LED will remain blue until the system is taken out of sleep mode (when it will go out completely); if the system is not in sleep mode, the notification LED will blink blue a few times, before returning to being off.

Receiving notifications and sleep mode downloads of software are done via SpotPass.

SpotPass data is saved in the SD card inserted in the Nintendo 3DS.
