When trading with {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, this field is co-opted for storing the Pokémon's [[held item]]. Items are preserved when traded from Generation II to Generation I and back, but some catch rates from Generation I do not have corresponding items in Generation II. In these cases, the value in this field is translated to a different value the first time it is traded to Generation II.

In {{game|Yellow}}, two Pokémon have their held item set to a value other than their catch rate. [[Red's Pikachu (game)|The starter Pikachu]]'s held item value is specially set to 163 (as opposed to Pikachu's catch rate of 190) when it is obtained, which causes it to hold a [[Light Ball]] when traded over. A wild {{p|Kadabra}}'s held item value is set to 96 upon capture (as opposed to 100), which gives it a [[TwistedSpoon]] when traded over.

[[Gift Pokémon]] from {{eng|Pokémon Stadium}} also have their held item set to a value other than their catch rate. The Pokémon obtained for clearing the [[Gym Leader Castle]] have their held item set to the [[Normal Box]] or [[Gorgeous Box]], depending on whether it was cleared as Round 1 or Round 2. The {{DL|Pokémon Stadium (English)|Amnesia Psyduck}} has its held item set to the [[Gorgeous Box]].
