In the mini-game, there are several rows of bushes that the Pokémon hide behind, sticking their heads out from time to time, or jumping from bush to bush at varying speeds. The only time that they can be caught is when their head/body is not covered by a bush. To help with the catching of Pokémon, near the end of the time limit a pink cloud of {{m|Sleep Powder}} will float across the screen, which will put all Pokémon to {{status|sleep}}. While they are asleep, the Pokémon can be hit regardless of where they are, and have their position shown by sleeping "zzz"s. It is possible for a Pokémon to have jumped off-screen when they are put to sleep; in that case, they won't be possible to hit until they wake up and come back on-screen.

==Location data==
When a Pokémon is transferred, its location becomes simply the name of the region it was caught rather than the exact location it was caught. A Pokémon caught in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s|HeartGold or SoulSilver}} will have its location listed as Johto, regardless of if it was caught in [[Kanto]], the [[Sinjoh Ruins]], or the [[Pokéwalker]]. A Pokémon originally caught in a [[Generation III]] game will have the text "after a long travel through time" added to the end of its location. In addition, the level obtained at is changed to the level arrived at, and the date obtained becomes the date it was transferred to the [[Generation V]] game.

==Trivia==
Like Pal Park, Poké Transfer reads only the data of the game the Pokémon was originally generated in, rather than its in-game met-at location. This sets any Pokémon created in FireRed and LeafGreen to Kanto, HeartGold and SoulSilver to Johto, Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald to Hoenn, and Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum to Sinnoh. A Pokémon whose egg is created in a game based in one region and traded to another region before it was hatched will display the name of the region it was generated in, rather than the one it was hatched in, meaning a Pokémon generated in Platinum but hatched in SoulSilver would have the OT and ID of SoulSilver's player but list that it was met in Sinnoh.
