In [[Sinnoh]]-based games, in order to access the terminal located in [[Jubilife City]], players must have the first [[Badge]] of the [[region]], while it is instantly accessible in [[Johto]] as soon as the player arrives in [[Goldenrod City]], the city in which it is located (this may be due, of course, to the fact that one cannot get to Goldenrod without the first Badge). The player's first Pokémon is returned to its [[Poké Ball]] before entering in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.

In {{game|Platinum}}, the GTS building has been replaced by the Global Terminal, which was redesigned to contain more features. It is located in the same place as the old GTS. The [[Vs. Recorder]] is widely used here. The features of the [[Global Trade System]] here are similar to the ones in {{v2|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, except that a choice to narrow the Pokémon found in ''Seek Pokémon'' feature by location has been added.

==In Generation V==
==Generation V==
While no longer a location, the Global Terminal and all of its features can be accessed from any Pokémon Center's second floor, except the one in the {{un|Pokémon League}} (due to its lack of a second floor). Players must simply talk to the receptionist at the right-hand counter to access the Global Trade Station and all of the [[Global Trade System]] features. New features added in this generation include a new trading method called [[Global_Trade_System#In_Generation_V|GTS Negotiations]], and an option to upload photos taken from [[Pokémon Musical]]s.
