A '''print''' (Japanese: '''プリント''') is a feature in {{game|Yellow}}, {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}} that requires the [[Game Boy Printer]]. The quality of prints is managed in the [[options]] and the game uses three messages during the process: CHECKING LINK → TRANSMITTING → PRINTING.

The player can print physical copies of the [[Pokédex]] entries of individual {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} by using the '''PRNT''' option in the Pokédex. The [[diploma]] can also be printed by the graphic artist at the Game Freak Development Room in [[Celadon Condominiums]].

The [[diploma]] can also be printed as proof by the graphic artist at the Game Freak Development Room on the third floor of [[Celadon Condominiums]].


Both the feature and its settings were removed in the Korean versions of {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} as the Game Boy Printer was not released in South Korea.

In the Western versions, the dimensions of printed Pokédex entries (160×192 px) exceed those of the [[Game Boy]]'s resolution (160×144 px) because the print combines the two pages of the entry. The prints in the Japanese versions do not have this quirk because the Pokédex entries only use a single page. On the other hand, the Japanese prints in the [[Generation II]] games use a different font from the games themselves.

On the other hand, the Japanese prints in the [[Generation II]] games use a different font from the games themselves. Printed diplomas are larger than the Game Boy's screen resolution in all releases of the games (160×288 px), and the Japanese Generation II games do not change the font like in the prints of Pokédex entries.


The background music played while printing is the same in all four games ([https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=svgdJwCkx1c listen]). It was later rearranged and used as the theme of the [[Pokéwalker]] screens in the [[main menu]] of {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.
