Radio

The PokéGear functions as a radio. This allows the player to get tips from Professor Oak and DJ Mary on Oak's Pokémon Talk, affect how active wild Pokémon are by playing Pokémon March or Pokémon Lullaby on the Pokémon Muisc station, or listen to the Lucky Channel to keep track of the Radio Tower's lottery promotion.

These functions must be unlocked by acquiring special expansion cards throughout the game.

The Hoenn analog to the PokéGear appears to be the PokéNav.
