Bag

The bag is quite possibly the most useful item in many of the Pokémon games. It is the item which holds almost all of the main character's other items. Even bikes can fit inside it, which later generation games explain by saying the bikes are collapsible.

Generation I

In Generation I, any item placed in the bag were in the same pocket. Ninety-nine of any item could fit inside, with only a certain number of items allowed in the bag in total. When the bag was full, the player's PC could be used for any kind of item storage.

Generation II

In the second generation of games came along a major change in the bag's design: Items could now be separated into four different pockets depending on what they are.

• Healing items, including berries
• Poké Balls
• TMs and HMs
• Key items

Generation III

In Generation III, the player could get a visual of the bag as he or she searched through it, with different designs of the bag for the unique characters. This generation also expanded the Pocket System from Generation II, with five pockets instead of four.

• Healing items
• Berries
• Poké Balls
• TMs and HMs
• Key items

Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen

The Pocket System in these two games differed from the rest. Rather than having separate pockets for Berries and TMs, the Key Items pocket contained two sub-pockets, the TM Case and Berry Pouch.

In the anime

The major characters in the Pokémon anime own a bag and usually keep their supplies and Poké Balls inside of it. Brock seems to carry many more items in his bag than the other characters, including a variety of healing items, books, and cooking supplies. Brock's bag seems to best reflect the impressively large capacity of the game's bag. In The School of Hard Knocks, he pulls a table and full tea set out of his backpack.
