'''Buena's Password''' (Japanese: '''アオイのあいことば''' ''{{tt|Aoi|Buena}}'s Password'') is a quiz show held in the [[Goldenrod Radio Tower|Radio Tower]] that was first introduced in {{game|Crystal}}.
'''Professor Oak's Pokémon Talk''' (Japanese: '''オーキドはかせの　ポケモンこうざ''' ''{{tt|Dr. Okido's|Prof. Oak's}} Pokémon Lecture''), also known as the '''Pokémon Channel''' is a radio show. It is hosted by [[Professor Oak]] and [[DJ Mary]]. The show operates on the radio frequency 4.5, only in afternoons in [[Generation II]] but all day in [[Generation IV]]; during the morning in Generation II, the [[Pokédex Show]] is broadcast.


The channel is broadcast in its own station in [[Generation II]], while in [[Generation IV]] it is part of the repertoire of the [[Variety Channel]].
The show talks about Pokémon and where they are found. In Generation IV starting post-[[National Pokédex]], it also informs the viewers of [[Pokémon outbreak|Pokémon swarms]]. This also includes the ones from Generation II that appear in a swarm when a trainer registered into the player's Pokégear would contact them.  


==How to play==
At first, Professor Oak was going to turn down the offer of having his own radio show, but Mary's energy and enthusiasm convinced him to host it.


In order to play the quiz show, the player must listen to the [[Pokégear]] radio from 6 PM to midnight (in [[Generation IV]], at 2 AM, 5 AM, 8 AM, 11 AM, 2 PM, 5 PM, 8 PM, and 11 PM). A secret password will be announced over the air, along with an invitation for listeners to come to the [[Goldenrod Radio Tower]] in [[Goldenrod City]]. The player is to go to the second floor and talk to [[Buena]], the show's host. She will give the player three options; if the correct one is picked, one point is added to the player's Blue Card. Only one point can be earned per day. In [[Generation II]] these points can be spent on prizes in the Radio Tower. In [[Generation IV]] prizes are given out the moment the player has the right amount of points. Changing the DS time to a different day will not allow another point to be earned.
The following Pokémon may be found by listening to Professor Oak's Pokémon Talk.

Also, players cannot have more than 30p on the Blue Card, so in [[Generation II]] some points must be spent before earning more. In [[Generation IV]] the player will be issued a new Blue Card once the 30p limit is hit.
