The Time Capsule is a part of Generation II Pokémon Centers where players can trade with their Generation I games.
In Gold, Silver, and Crystal, the Time Capsule is located on the second floor of each Pokémon Center. However, in the early part of the game, it is under repair, and thus unavailable until the player has met Bill in Ecruteak City.
After this point, it is possible to trade with the Generation I games; however, there are still some requirements:
- The player cannot have any Generation II Pokémon or eggs in their party.
- None of the Generation I Pokémon that are in the party can know any moves introduced in Generation II.
When linked up to a Generation I game, the trade will happen as it did in Generation I, and the Generation II game will act as if it is a Generation I game.
Due to the restriction on later-generation moves when trading back to Generation I, the Move Deleter was also introduced in Generation II so that Generation I Pokémon that had learned newer moves could be traded back. The move deleter carried on into both Generation III and Generation IV, even though trades with previous generations were not supported.
The Generation IV counterpart to the Time Capsule, which allows Pokémon from Generation III to be transferred ahead, is Pal Park; however, these are not trades, but instead, permanent transfers from Generation III to IV. Also, Generation V introduces the Poké Transfer, which does the same thing, except this time it transfers Generation IV Pokémon to Generation V.
