Effect

Red, Blue, Yellow, FireRed, LeafGreen, Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!

Allows the player to board the S.S. Anne while it is present at Vermilion City. The player can board the S.S. Anne to obtain HM01 (Cut)RGBYFRLG or learn the Secret Technique Chop DownPE, but the S.S. Anne departs once they do and disembark the ship.

The player needs to obtain the S.S. Ticket to leave Cerulean City through the house burglarized by Team Rocket, otherwise the entrance to this house remains blocked by a guard (Officer Jenny in Pokémon Yellow, Let's Go, Pikachu!, and Let's Go, Eevee!).

In Generation I, the player can still leave Cerulean City without the S.S. Ticket by obtaining a Pokémon with Cut from a trade and then cutting the tree at the south. However, this is not possible in Generation III, because this tree is blocked by a Lass's Slowbro until the player obtains the S.S. Ticket. It is also not possible in Generation VII because the player would require the Secret Technique Chop Down to cut this tree, which is obtained later in the game.

Gold, Silver, Crystal, HeartGold, and SoulSilver

Allows the player to board the S.S. Aqua and travel between Johto and Kanto aboard it.

Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, Omega Ruby, and Alpha Sapphire

Allows the player to board the S.S. Tidal and travel to the Battle TowerRS/Battle ResortORAS for the first time aboard it. In Pokémon Emerald, using the S.S. Ticket for the first time permits travel between the ports of Slateport City and Lilycove City. After the first boat trip, the Battle Frontier can be reached from either port.

The S.S. Ticket is required in order to use the event-only items AuroraTicket and MysticTicket.

In the anime

An S.S. Ticket in the anime

In Battle Aboard the St. Anne, Ash and his friends received an S.S. Ticket from a disguised Team Rocket. Unbeknownst to them, Jessie and James had been ordered to give away tickets for free by Giovanni as a part of his plan to steal the Pokémon from every Trainer aboard the St. Anne.

In Vermilion City, Bill gave Satoshi an S.S. Ticket as thanks for helping separate him from his Nidoran♂.

Trivia

  • In Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, when the player attempts to enter the S.S. Anne, the game does not check if the S.S. Ticket is present in the Bag; instead, it specifically checks for the event flag indicating that Bill has delivered the S.S. Ticket to the player. However, this makes no difference in regular gameplay, because the S.S. Ticket (like any other Key Item in these games) is unable to be deposited in the PC, sold, or thrown away, so it remains indefinitely in the Bag after the player has received it from Bill.
